Eric Benet Gets a new Show

Eric BenetSoul crooner Eric Benet hosts the new season of the BET J show 'Lyric Café.'

Taped last week in Washington, DC, the popular series showcases a combination of modern soul and jazz singers with spoken word artists.

"It was dope being able to host Lyric Café," the singer told me. "The show is all about celebrating creativity in lyrics and R&B. I got a chance to perform as an artist in addition to hosting, as well as present some dope spoken word artists."

Among the music artists that are featured on the forthcoming season of 'Lyric Café' includeRahsaan Patterson, Lalah Hathaway, Ginuwine, Leela James and Maysa, among others.

"There's a lot of push for pop-flavored R&B. But those who perform real soulful R&B, there aren't a lot of venues out there for us. This is a much needed vehicle," Benet expressed.
