Hang On by Benny Jay is an adrenaline-fueled rally cry from a Melbourne-born, LA-hardened rocker whoโs poured every drop of sweat and spirit into a single that hits like a freight train of grit, glory, and guitar. โHang Onโ kicks off with shimmering, chiming guitars that punch through the silence like headlights in the fog, backed by drums that thump with the steady force of a heartbeat refusing to quit. Then Benny Jay steps in, raspy, defiant, cutting through the chaos with a voice that doesnโt beg for attention, it commands it.
His delivery is sharp and searing, like each word has been dragged through dirt and set on fire. Thereโs something gloriously throwback about it with the vibes of Bon Jovi, Bryan Adams, and Van Halen pulsing beneath the surface. This is a man carving his sound with analogue sweat and modern hunger. And the chorus soars it out.
And the video is a cinematic, concrete love letter to survival. From the LA River dam to the Statue of Liberty, Benny Jay stitches together a nationwide soul map, capturing the pain, pride, and pulse of people who just keep going. Itโs a visual anthem for the underdog, and it slaps. The fact that he wrote, produced, mixed, mastered, filmed, and edited all of it himself? Thatโs not DIY โ thatโs rockstar craftsmanship. This is the second single in a 12-track saga dropping across the year, and if โHang Onโ is only prepping up the fire.
