“I want people to recognize that life is meant to be enjoyed. We all have ups and downs, and it is up to us how we take those situations and learn from them.” These are the words of Henny Holyfield, a Sacramento based artist, radio personality, husband, and father. For someone who has been creating music for over two decades, Holyfield shares his experiences, warts, and all through his music to show people they aren’t going through life alone.
Born and raised in San Jose, Henny Holyfield, formerly known as the artist Hennessey, moved to Sacramento, California, around 20 years ago. In that time, he has released two solo albums, along with a handful of other projects that he has collaborated with other Sacramento artists on, like Dirk Dig, who created the group known as Kali Boyz with Holyfield. Alongside his music, Henny is a host on The 360 Radio out of Sacramento, which has helped build his local persona and buzz around his music.
Outside of his career, Holyfield takes his role as a husband and father very seriously. “My greatest inspiration is my family. They keep me motivated to be the best version of myself every day.” His relationship with his own father, which has been tough for Holyfield to talk about, gives him the motivation to be the best father to his own three children. Balancing his family life with his career has been tough for the Sacramento artist, but he has managed both successfully to this point in his career.
Henny Holyfield has a lot in store for the upcoming year. He has been working tirelessly on a few joint projects with various Sacramento musicians and more solo music. Holyfield is slated to have a big 2020-2021, so follow him on his Facebook to keep up with new music.
