White armor and Thai boy encouraged Benjamin to freestyle on some beats for fun after an awesome night of partying. By the end of the session, three-man and Ecco2k had formed the new rap group known as Gravity Boys.
After dropping out of university and drawing inspiration from rappers such as Chief Keef, Lil B, and The Beach Boys, Benjamin adopted the new moniker Bladee and began releasing new music on SoundCloud in 2011.
At that time he began posting songs under the name Ken Burns, but his professional music career started in 2012. Over the years their collective name would change from the Gravity Boys to Gravity Boys Shield Gang to Shield Ganf and now simply Drain Gang. It didn’t take long before they recognized that another group of Swedish rappers nicknamed Sad Boys was making music very similar to this.
When they discovered their styles could complement each other, Bladee approached the group, which resulted in the 2013 Yung Lean duet “Heal You / Bladerunner” on Lean’s mixtape Unknown Death 2002.

Following the release of his second studio album “Red Light” in 2018, Bladee would evolve as a performer, transforming himself into what he refers to as “some sort of auto-tuned dark angel.”
Bladee released three projects in 2020, including two studio albums, Exeter and 333, as well as the collaborative mixtape Good Luck. He released his fourth studio album, The Fool, in 2021, which included the smash tune Hotel Breakfast. That song would immediately go viral on TikTok.
That same year, Bladee was finally able to realize his desire when he displayed his first-ever solo collaboration of paintings titled Real Sprin9 at the Residence Gallery in London. He also collaborated with the American-Swedish apparel brand GANT to create the Capsule Drain Gang collection.
