One

With one of the most beloved voices in music, Grammy nominated R&B icon Eric Benit will release his 6th album on JUNE 5, 2012 aptly entitled THE ONE. Featuring the first single, "Real Love, " which has become a Top 5 Urba n AC smash, THE ONE marks a moment of positive transition in his life and lyrically speaks to the many new beginnings developing in his career and family including the recent marriage to Manuela Testolini and the birth of his second daughter in December of 2011. THE ONE will also be the first album released on Benits newly formed record label Jordan House Records, in partnership with EMI. As Benit grew up in Milwaukee in the 1970s - at the time one of the most segregated parts of the US - music was a huge part of his family home, the Jordan house. At the Jordan house you were guaranteed to hear singing, different instruments being played, and a musical celebration happening every time you visited. Music was truly woven into the fabric of his upbringing.
