Multi-platinum producer, songwriter, and recording artist Benny Blanco has officially signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA), adding to his impressive list of industry affiliations. Known for his prolific work with numerous chart-topping artists, Blanco’s career has led to over 500 million album-equivalent sales globally. He has contributed hits for a diverse roster, including Ed Sheeran, BTS, Justin Bieber, Halsey, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, Rihanna, Sia, Kanye West, and The Weeknd.

Career Highlights: Blanco initially gained recognition as a songwriter and producer before launching his solo career in 2018. His debut single, Eastside with Halsey and Khalid, peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was a global success, reaching the top ten in several countries. This song marked Blanco’s 27th top-ten song as a writer, solidifying his reputation as a pop hitmaker. He followed up with singles like I Found You with Calvin Harris, Better to Lie with Jesse and Swae Lee, and Roses with Juice Wrld featuring Brendon Urie. His debut album, Friends Keep Secrets, was released in December 2018, with a deluxe version in 2021 that received platinum certification.

Blanco also founded two labels under Interscope Records—Mad Love Records and Friends Keep Secrets—signing notable artists such as Tory Lanez and Cashmere Cat. His recent collaborations include Degenere with Myke Towers, released last week, and Lace It with Juice Wrld and Eminem in December 2023.

With his new representation at CAA, Benny Blanco is set to expand his influence further, continuing to craft hits and work with top artists across the music industry.
