Benidito King was born in Philadelphia to Vashti Torrienti Adams and a guy named Ben E. King (yes, THAT Ben E. King). With a father renowned for iconic hits like "Stand By Me" and "This Magic Moment," and a mother who was a well-known dancer, singer and pianist, Benidito de?nitely has the music in him. By the age of eight, his passion for music and his talent for singing came to light as he began to perform Michael Jackson songs for his family and friends. His interest in singing and performing continued into his teen years and eventually led him to consider pursuing music as a career. When he was 14, Benidito joined a band called "Prophecy" which ended up merging with his brother's band "Wicked Funk " to form a mega-band called what else?... "Prophecy and Wicked Funk!" This combined band almost got signed to Sun Records but somehow missed the ?ight to California for a showcase and that was that... opportunity lost. In 1986, Benidito signed to Philly World Records and recorded his ?rst single, "Anything (You Want)" at Alpha International Studios. The single was successful in Europe and is still selling to this day on iTunes, Amazon and eBay. After taking a bit of a break from the music business, he eventually returned to songwriting and collaborated with his son R. Tastik on the songs "Body Close To Mine" and "Sylvia." Most recently, Benidito has signed with Society Hill Records in the continued effort to share his inherent talents with the world, and to fully embrace the legacy of his late father. Working with legendary Philly Soul producer Butch Ingram, Benidito confidently glides through a program of some of his favorite songs from his father's catalog, as well as the tune "I'm A King," written specifically for Benedito by Ingram. Throughout the record, Benidito's passion for the music shines through - proving the age-old adage: "The apple never falls far from the tree."
