Editor's Take:
Benny Blanco is one of the behind-the-scenes figures who shaped pop radio in the 2010s. He learned his trade under producer Dr. Luke and quickly began writing hits of his own. His songs often combine simple, catchy melodies with clean, punchy production. He later stepped out as an artist, releasing collaborations with stars he had worked with. His playful online persona and love of cooking widened his fame. His relationship with Selena Gomez brought him into the celebrity spotlight.
