Benja Valencia is a Chilean urban singer-songwriter and rapper from Algarrobo who first posted piano-led ballads before pivoting to reggaetón and trap, shaping a diary-style writing voice. He gathered his early material on the 19-track mixtape Mil Canciones (2021), then opened a more professional phase in 2023 with the EP 888 (via Warner Music Chile) and collaborative singles like âSigo Pensandoâ with Kidd Voodoo, which sketched a sleeker, melody-first sound. The following year he doubled down with 888: PRIVATE PARTY (2024), home to the streaming favorite âAtractiva,â and expanded his range on the posse cut âSATIROS,â bringing in Kidd Voodoo, Martinwhite, Daiko 02, flackoloyal, Swift 047, and Craken over a darker, club-driven palette. He capped 2024 with the album Y8: Todo Lo Que Nunca Te Dije, leaning into mid-tempo pop-urbano and coastal moods on songs such as âFrente al Mar.â A busy 2025 cemented his rise through a steady drip of singles and videos: the romantic âQUÃDATEâ (with Yarge), glossy reggaetón entry âHOY SE DA,â the Julianno Sosa link-up âCORA KAWAII,â the uptempo âAY DIABLO MAMI!â (with Letter), âTE SOÃÃâ (with Bryartz), and the centerpiece duet âSentimiento Mágicoâ with Sinaka.
