I could be wrong but...

...I think Benga's fly is undone in that picture.

(cool interview though - I used to make those pause-button mixtapes, too)

Always a pleasure to get the story behind such a big artist.

My very first impression of Benga was Hatcha's set in the Breezeblock Dubstep Wars. He was playing all Benga and it was fresh. So it was Benga who used to lust after Hatcha's exclusives in the first place. Pretty amazing.

^^^

I'm pretty sure his real name is not that.

Something closer to Beni/Benji.... hence, "Ben"ga, I guess?!

wires crossed here.....Benga's name is Beni Uthman.

The guy who wrote the piece is called Mark Gurney [size=0](i.e.markle)[/size]
