Benjamin Fro began as a poet in 2017. Back then, his election poem "Less Geert" garnered hundreds of thousands of views. Since then, Fro has been a welcome guest at spoken word events, festivals and demonstrations such as Woorden Worden Zinnen, Winternachten Festival and the Climate March 2021. The climate march was presented by Fro and attracted more than 40,000 visitors . His most popular poem is undoubtedly The Time for Revolution. The poem, clearly inspired by
Gil Scott Heron manages to quiet any audience in about 15 seconds only to burst into deafening applause about two minutes later. Fro also writes commissioned work. He has already written for The Ikea Foundation, De Goede Zaak, FNV and the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision, among others. Although Fro's texts have always been written to be recited aloud, Fro's lyrics have also surfaced in several books such as Inside Black (2020) and Practivism (2018).

The whole audience joined in and the band made sure that all these different genres and stories melted together into one great whole

He describes himself as a philosophical rapper who makes hip-hop music. No word lied, but he does much more than that. The more the audience hears, the more they get carried away by the vibe Fro exudes. Everything seems to go effortlessly for this Amsterdammer
