Alec: "I have a lot of words in my music." Me & Eric: Yeah you do! At least he knows 😂😂😂

[@ynnliz]

I really admire how Alec had improved and growed as an artist and i’m very proud of him. I’ll keep supporting him and his music. You are awesome, keep it up!❤️

[@jamiekoh248]

the plot twist in 'if i killed someone for you' was golden... just like 'stan'

[@toecheddarcheese]

The flow between Eric Nam and all the guests have been so insanely good that 4 minutes is nOT ENOUGH!!!! Longer snips or full length videos would be amazing

[@albanavale5817]

i discovered both of them at the same time and they've been on repeat on my phone ever since and seeing them together is so crazy I'm so happy.

[@kirstymacleod8814]

He’s right, not many people sing in the way Alec does but that’s why I like his music so much. I LOVE that his songs are stories. It’s beautiful and interesting and gives it something extra to his music that others sometimes lack. Music nowadays is becoming pretty repetitive and meaningless and his is just so different and special

[@rave899]

Alec's gonna go down in history...write that down somewhere!

[@Moonlight-yf4pw]

You wrote it already... so I guess it counts? Your comment just needs more likes so that it's on top.

[@rave899]

@@Moonlight-yf4pw Yes it counts. I just want everyone to remember Alec and never forget him🥺♥️ thank you for saying that!

[@Moonlight-yf4pw]

@@rave899 he would be famous one day. And Yes, he won't be forgotten. This world should never forget an amazing person like him!

Alec, your music is amazing. It’s always got me thinking. The stories are so thought out and really share a message. Honestly, I’ve learned so much from your music. It really makes you see life and the world from different points of views.

[@LuArielLor]

Alec gave such a detailed and precise explanation of how I feel when I listen to Eminem. He himself had such beautiful music as well. Love all three

[@asmasaidoun2524]

He is right. Alec Benjamin's music is definitely unique. And that is the best thing about him. His music all have some real depth to them and meaning that people can relate to.

[@neerunni]

Eric Nam & Team - You guys are dope for showcasing artists like Alec Benjamin. I paused this video at 2 mins to check out his song especially because it's wordsy! Yeah, I have a thing for words and that's one of the many (HUGE list) reasons I stan you, Eric! And It's amazing how relatable the song is! One more addition to my playlist.
