Bnnyhunna
“Bnnyhunna is a product of his environment. An artist whose work is a coalition of his past, he takes jazz-adjacent elasticity and uses it in a soulful way, touching on club energies in the process.”
Robin Murray, CLASH
Benjamin Ankomah is a Ghanaian artist who grew up in the South East part of Amsterdam. As his young life came with challenges, he found his remedy by discovering the ultimate way to express himself through music. In church he learned to play piano, drums and guitar. He has cultivated a distinctive sound influenced by a diverse musical upbringing and legends like Fela Kuti, Yusef Dayes, Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell Williams. He takes on roles in writing, producing, and playing nearly all the instruments. His fusion of jazz, hip hop, R&B and afro, influenced by his West-African background, got him invited to prestigious festivals such as North Sea Jazz, Montreux Jazz Festival and Down The Rabbit Hole. His debut album ECHOES OF PRAYER was released in October 2024.
