Product Description
Eric Benet has recaptured the essence of his roots as he journeyed back to Milwaukee on his fourth solo effort, Love & Life, a strong, good-feeling record reminiscent of yesteryears when R&B was rooted in gospel, a dash of jazz and the feeling of social awareness. This album reflects a journey that magnifies the abundance of familiar experiences both personal and social that transpires, represents sheer honesty, allowing you to discover truth, and be moved and connected by music.

 Real R&B is Back September 9, 2008
9 out of 11 found this review helpful
I've been a fan of Eric Benet's since 1996's A Day In The Life and while his last CD 2005'S Hurricane was a slight depature from his previous, he returns to excllent from with Love & Life. The CD opens with the mellow Love, Patience & Time followed by the lead singles The Hunger and Your The Only One. Your The Only One is the strongest Eric has sounded vocally since Spend My Life With You & Feminity. Another track that's sure to be a sure fire babymaker is Chocolate Legs, very sensual song stritcely for the grown & sexy.While the CD doesn't have anything as strong as the three lead, Eric voices makes the tracks work with his heartfelt emotion.
 A "must have" CD September 10, 2008

Folks, Eric Benet's new CD hit the stores yesterday, and it is worth buying.
"You're the Only One I Want" promises to be one of those songs responsible for baby booms. (Y'all know what I'm talking about.) It's reminiscent of old school R&B--meaningful lyrics with a groove that will make you want to get busy.
"Weekend Girl" also has a familiar feel--you'll be reminded of the S.O.S. Band's version of "Weekend Girl" when you first hear this song, but you will quickly see that it is altogether different. Good song.
"Chocolate Legs." All I can say is, "LAWD, LAWD, LAWD."
"Love Patience & Time" begins with an acappella bridge that is somewhat gospel-esque (yes, I made up that word) that follows with a smooth, upbeat groove. Niiiiiiice.
"Spanish Fly" will make you want to do a slow merengue with that special someone.
This whole CD is good, and it will definitely be spending time in my car's stereo for quite a while. Give it a listen!

Eric, Eric, Eric - you didn't hit a homerun with this one, dude. :-(
I bought this on the strength of Eric's musical reputation and the song You're The Only One, but this is not his best work. After I listen to The Hunger, You're The Only One, and Don't Let Go, I skip Everlove and listen to Chocolate Legs, Weekend Girl, skip Iminluvwichoo, and listen to Spanish Fly and eject. Hmmm, six out of twelve songs - that makes it halfway decent. It's still a good CD, but the songs are mostly forgettable. I don't think he'll ever do better than A Day In The Life.

Eric has done it again and again. This album, "Love And Life", is no exception to the rule. I am in love with it. It doesn't have song on it that you want to skip over. This is a testament to how much of a true artist Eric really is. Eric, you have truly done it once again. Can't wait to see you in concert in L.A.. Holla at us Angelenos. God bless and much continued success!
