Purpose-Driven Hip Hop - Slym Beno

January 26, 2026 • Arts Council • Season 5 • Episode 21

Today on Creative Cafe, we are joined by Slym Beno, a purpose-driven hip hop artist whose work blends motivational lyricism, faith-influenced storytelling, and an unwavering commitment to authenticity. Originally from Cleveland and now rooted in Michigan, Slym Beno represents P One Entertainment, a platform built around purpose, opportunity, and community impact. His latest project, The Big P EP, invites listeners to reflect, grow, and step boldly into who they are called to become. Beyond the music, he is creating intentional spaces through live events that bring together artistry, reflection, and community connection. We are excited to spend time talking about purpose, creativity, and what it means to build art that uplifts. Originally aired on Saturday, January 23, 2026, at 8 am on WKZO 590 AM and 106.9 FM in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
