He released his 5th studio album "SAD GENERATION" in March of 2025.
Career After graduating in 2004, he started singing in a gospel group called Fitiavana. His friends called him "l'Oncle Ben" because he was often wearing a bow tie like Uncle Ben from Uncle Ben's Rice. But he decided to change the name in 2009, shortly before the release of his first EP, Soul Wash: Lesson 1, to avoid copyright problems. His eponymous debut album, Ben l'Oncle Soul, was released by Motown Records in 2010.
