Benjamin Levin (born March 8, 1988), better known as Benny Blanco, is an American songwriter and producer. He first came to attention producing a collaborative EP with Spank Rock. Working with producer Dr. Luke, Blanco helped to write and produce number one singles for female pop stars such as Britney Spears, Katy Perry and Ke$ha, as well as artists like Justin Bieber, Mike Posner and Taio Cruz. He has had a part in co-writing or co-producing twelve number one singles on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as other top ten hits.
When Blanco was 17 he received an e-mail from producer Disco D, and went to his penthouse in Brooklyn and asked if he could work for him. He said, “I’m leaving for Brazil next week, and you’re going to come and fill the studio for me. If you book someone to work at the studio every day of the week, you’re hired.” When Disco came back he hired Blanco who would commute every weekend from Virginia during high school. After graduating, he enrolled in the IAR (Institute of Audio Research) and worked with Disco D every day until being picked up by Pilot Creative Services Inc, a boutique management firm that had been working with D in the latter part of his career. His first beat was created for a pornography series called Hip Hop Honeys, created by Jonathan Shecter, the cofounder of The Source. Benny Blanco was originally founded by Sam Trocki of Atlantic City, New Jersey
