Benjamin Braxton, 27, a DJ from Grenoble, began his career with wise studies in
classical music, before becoming a radio host at the age of 15. He began
producing in 1999, but it was his 2007 track "Catwalk ", featuring vocals by
Italy's Neja, that drew attention to him. " Now You Know ", released in 2009,
raised his hopes of reaching the top of the French charts, something his
previous attempts had failed to do. Disappointed once again with "Now You Know",
Benjamin Braxton went on to use the Hold Up moniker for "I'm Free" and "Stop Me
Now".
