Alec Benjamin Tells Us How "Let Me Down Slowly" Blew Up | HOW I BLEW UP

[@dqsh420]

He's truly amazing and i feel he understands us as much as we understand him:) his voice is truly amazing and it is so calming and comforting for me

[@casie6609]

I find it strange that Let Me Down Slowly has like 300M+ views and all his other songs only have around 5M views each on average. I prefer his other songs to his most popular but they're all super great 💙

[@nanungihmartlangte94]

coz kids these days dont follow artist, they follow a song they heard from reels or tiktok…

[@casie6609]

@@nanungihmartlangte94 I'm not sure about generalizing like that, but I'd say that's true for a lot of people. The algorithm has a lot to do with it too though. He's not as popular as some artists' and this one is the most recommended song most likely

[@tofulynn]

Let Me Down Slowly was the first song I heard from him. I feel like it is the most views since it can be the most relatable for many people in many situations.

@@nanungihmartlangte94 idk for me i found it from scrolling through my youtube recommended in 2019

[@ariellenahh]

@@nanungihmartlangte94 i found it from a gacha music video 3yrs ago💀 but ever since then he's been my favorite artist

[@sinchikodo2627]

Is it only me that alec benjamin is my favorite singer, like it's incredible how can he Tell something in his songs that I can relate but can can't express them through words in the other hand he turned them into songs I really love this man I started listening to his songs when I was 14 and now I am 16 years old and he is still my fav singer, he is incredibly talented and I wish I could say this to him one day face to face ❤️❤️❤️

[@kaylasachs6625]

I've been a fan of Alec for about 4 or 5 years, I went to his concert in salt lake 2 months ago, and it was the best experience I've ever had in my life. I cried the entire way home because I was so happy

[@kdee6546]

He feels less alone having a community of people, and I feel less alone listening to him. Win win situation 💜

[@shaylaatiles]

Alec is such a sweetheart. Saw him this year in Chicago and it was amazing! Can’t wait for more of his music 🤍

[@beau6884]

So glad he did, his music helped me a lot when I was down through the years. I found him through an Americas got Talent video of a kid dancing to Paper Crown.

[@stglass4402]

not too long ago, i started listening to his songs and i instantly fell in love with those songs. the way it was written, the way it is done, everything. each songs have each meaning and all of them are beautiful and deep. he is a very wonderful singer! he is my favourite as well as my friends

[@francopaucar1240]

The way most of us feel that his songs are talking about what we're going through is the best:')

[@dgnmedia416]

Song deserved to blow

[@ShrayDas]

[@fusionfromtheheart8065]

I'm just so glad he never gave up on his dreams. I'm sure he has had a not so small role in saving a lot of lives including mine by telling us we are not alone and that our feelings matter. Love you Alec. Wish I could see you live one day.

[@mikaylavanderpool3078]

Alec definitely deserves every ounce of recognition and fame he gets. Bc not only is he a really good artist and (in my opinion) is incapable of making a bad song, he has an amazing personality and he is just so pure. He for sure is my favorite artist and I’m really excited to see his career grow. :)

[@Tina-mi2ud]

Idk why but I just know that that interview was hard for Alec - he's just way to humble for saying any of the "how i blew up" stuff lol

[@uproxxmusicvideos]

He was definitely humble which you feel, but also open to sharing his journey and any advice for aspiring artists. Great energy all around.

[@Tina-mi2ud]

@@uproxxmusicvideos that's so nice of you and all the people making your videos being supportive of the artists you interview :))
