    Benson Boone on Freddie Mercury, "American Heart" & Backflips

    SECRET FULL VIDEO CHAT -> https://listnr.link/66PgmMp Benson Boone stopped by to get completely real about the brutal wave of online backlash he faced after dropping "Mystical Magical," admitting it briefly made him spiral into thinking he was an awful person. Instead of toning down his eccentric stage jumpsuits and backflips to keep the haters happy, he decided to lean entirely into the chaos and stop caring what the internet thinks. He tackles the constant Freddie Mercury comparisons head-on, breaks down what it feels like to be judged by millions of strangers, and shares why his upcoming music era leaves the polished pop behind for raw, soulful vocals that mirror his live shows. From processing burnout after a non-stop year on the road to redefining how he wants his legacy remembered in eighty years, this is Benson at his most unfiltered and honest.
