Swa {formally known as Benisour} is no stranger to the rap game. The
Miami rapper who rose to fame in the late 2000's has done records with
some of the top acts to come out of the south including Lil Boosie, Ace
Hood, Akon, Webbie and Diamond, just to name a few. His name continued
to buzz in the streets and soon Swa found himself trading bars with
Bronx legend Fat Joe on the single "Cupcakes". The track would end up on
Fat Joe's J.O.S.E.. When it looked like things where looking
up, an ongoing beef between Fat Joe & 50 Cent would send everything
crashing down. Although Swa was not a direct target in the beef, he was
subject to the backlash. In 2010, Swa decided to put rap on hold and
pursue other interest including ghostwriting. His short lived retirement
ended in 2013 as Swa entered the studio once again to pick back up
where he left off.
Swa is currently putting the final touches on his debut EP,
NonFiction which feature Freeway, Ace Hood, Sway Calloway & more.
