Anybody For Eric Benet?

I've been groovin' on Eric for a couple of days...
He sounds JUST LIKE Prince when he does his falsetto
in "Love the Hurt Away" Just beautiful!!!

The whole album is a plus

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF ERIC BENET

That's Just My Way
Spend My Life With You
When You Think of Me
Why U Follow Me?
Love the Hurt Away

and more!!!

Great Album(s)..., his first album is excellent as well. Titled "true to myself" 1996. Some others that are not on his first two albums...

Love Don't Love Me
Poetry Girl
Beautiful Girl (I love this song... love)

They're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

That is precisely the question being asked in the non-Prince music discussion forum on this site - asshole.

Can't honestly say because I haven't heard his whole albums, but I really dug "Love Don't Love Me" from The Brothers soundtrack. cool PEACE

I bought this album ages ago and it's a pretty good album, there's a track with Me'shell on it 'Ghetto Girl'. It's well worth a listen.

eric benet is great.
true to myself, however, is not his first album.
he has an album he released with his sister a few years earlier than that... hard to find, titled "benet"

comparing him to prince is not a good idea. comparing artists in general is not a good idea either. let benet be benet, and let prince be prince. benet does a funky cover of a sly song on true to myself. give it a listen if you haven't.

Eric's a cool dude. Great, great voice. Very underated. I much prefer him to D'Angelo and Maxwell.

'Love the hurt away' is a killer track. Fantastic stuff.

Man, I'll never forget when I hear "Georgy Peorgy" the first time... it made me sting. The album is butter.
Oh shit, my hat done fell off
