On November 4, 1986 Ryan Bell aka Franc Benji was born at Hannaman Hospital in North Philadelphia, PA! Benji started rapping at the age of 13 and was given the nickname Murk due to his reputation in rap cyphers. Unfortunately, in the summer of 2003, things started to take a drastic turn in young Murks life! He was expelled from Architecture and Design Charter Highschool for possession of a firearm on school property, then later shortly after graduating from Shallcross Disciplinary School, he was arrested for an armed-robbery and charged as an adult! At the young age of 17, Murk was released on bail, but returned 3 weeks later for a car-jacking, and criminal conspiracy to a robbery! This time, however, he was in for the long hall and what started off as a 4-8 year sentence turned into a flat 10!

After maxing out his state sentence on February 27, 2017, Benji has released his Mixtape Always Ready on Spinrilla on March 22nd under Get Rite or Get Left Productions and has already worked on projects with artist such as Ginuwine, Gillie Da Kid, Ant Glizzy, AR Trigga, Real Rap, and a few other artists as well! In just 3 months, he released over 20 songs all of which are on SoundCloud, the most famous being a remix to T. Grizzly's FIRST DAY OUT entitled FINALLY FREE! Franc Benji says he won't stop until he has the world---- we'll, he's certainly on the right path considering his work ethics and his ability to make music! He thanks his father/manager Monte Pr'Out for believing in him and supporting him in every way possible, as well as his road managers Mark and D.
