Producer Benny Blanco Admits Shazaming Own Songs Amid Extensive Catalog

Benny Blanco, a prolific music producer and songwriter responsible for numerous hits over the past 16 years, revealed on Jake Shane’s Therapuss podcast that he sometimes uses the Shazam app to identify songs he hears, only to discover they are his own creations. He joked about his poor memory, attributing it to the sheer volume of music he's produced, which includes collaborations with stars like Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, and his fiancée Selena Gomez. Blanco compared his inability to recall every song to Shane's challenge of remembering every podcast guest after multiple seasons. He and Gomez recently released a joint album titled "I Said I Love You First," reflecting their relationship, although they have been too busy with work to plan their wedding. Blanco also admitted to not having seen Selena Gomez's early work until they began dating. His candid discussion highlights both his extensive influence in the music industry and his down-to-earth approach to fame and creativity.
