Brought over Yoshi's post with Eric's interview about his new
record label.
Benet: Our first priority is a successful release of “The One.”
After we’ve achieved that, I would very much like to find,
develop, and nurture an artist or two who has a very definitive,
creative statement and I’d like to give that artist room to
express his or her self, more like a partnership, rather than a
label and the artist; but a partnership to share music with the
world. And how effectively that will happen will depend on the
success of the first release, but it’s very much in the plan.
Benet: I’d like to think that there’s an authenticity to R&B
that a few artists are holding the torch for, I’d like to think
I’m one of them. I think that this kind of R&B celebrates
musicianship, celebrates arrangement, chord structure, and
vocals that are unapologetically real and raw. Right now, I
think that kind of R&B is not the mainstream. I think that it’s
something that is appreciated by less quanitful masses, but with
more discriminate tastes in music. I think that there will
always be an audience for that type of R&B. I think it’s going
through a cycle now of not being the most popular type of music,
but I’d like to think that that cycle is coming around and going
around again. A great soulful song, with great instrumentation
and great songwriting craftsmanship will never go away. I think
sometimes you get kinda covered up with stuff that’s a little
more sensational, or more youth-oriented. But I think quality
and depth isn’t gonna go completely away, and I’d like to think
that the pendulum is gonna swing back again, and once again it’s
gonna be like, the “in” thing. But right now it almost feels
like it’s an underground thing, like people who have a love
affair for the instrumentation of music are drawn to this type
of R&B. You got the Jill Scotts, the Maxwells, Anthony Hamilton;
these kinds of artists do very well, it’s just not that many of
them, and I’m gonna keep holding the torch.
