Thank you! If you want to hear some benna, I'd recommend Lord Heels, who recorded benna-type music in the 90s. My fave song of his is "sweat" the thesis of which is "my friends and I went to a concert but it was really hot out and that ruined the experience for me" www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BSo...

So like if you caught your friend's boyfriend cheating on her, you'd just compose a song complete with backup singers to deliver the news, and then go up to your friend and be like "omg rebecca you'll never guess what I saw nathan doing. Allow me to tell you in song" and that was normal

There's a music genre from the Caribbean nation of Antigua and Barbuda called benna, and it's the gossip genre.

Benna wasn't music for artists to produce and sell, or for music fans to casually listen to, but for ordinary people to deliver stories and hot goss
