Eddie Benjamin Breaks Boundaries with Cinematic New Single “RUN!”
Eddie Benjamin unveils “RUN!,” a fierce and vulnerable track from his anticipated debut album.
Eddie Benjamin continues his emergence as one of music’s most dynamic new voices with the release of “RUN!,” the second single from his forthcoming debut studio album. The track arrives alongside a gripping visual directed by Mitch deQuilettes, enhancing the song’s intimate urgency with a narrative twist.
A blend of virtuosic R&B, psychedelic guitar, and raw vocal delivery, “RUN!” unfolds as a deeply personal conversation in the middle of emotional collapse. Eddie questions the sudden breakdown of an intense bond: “Why do you run, run, you run away / When our love’s brighter than the sun?”
“Don’t run from your emotions,” he shares, distilling the track’s theme into a single message.
As with previous single “MANIAC,” Eddie performs every instrument on “RUN!,” channeling each layer with intent and feeling. The result is immersive and expansive—ending on a guitar solo that speaks louder than words.
The accompanying video amplifies this emotional exploration. In a stark high-rise apartment, Eddie’s performance is mirrored on a broadcast feed—but the space soon becomes haunted by an unseen figure, symbolic of emotional fragmentation.
Having already worked behind the scenes with artists like Justin Bieber, WILLOW, and Shawn Mendes, Benjamin now brings the spotlight back to his own voice—one that’s vulnerable, powerful, and impossible to ignore.
