Eric Benét is bringing smooth soul to the holiday season. The four-time Grammy-nominated R&B singer has officially released his first-ever Christmas album, It’s Christmas — a warm, 11-track collection that blends timeless classics with Benét’s signature silky vocals and fresh arrangements.

“I know, I know y’all it ain’t even Halloween yet… But you really need to check out this Christmas album (out now!),” Benét shared on Instagram.

The release marks Benét’s first holiday project and comes on the heels of The Co-Star — his first full-length album since 2016’s self-titled record. The Co-Star features powerhouse collaborations with India.Arie, Goapele, Melanie Fiona, Ari Lennox, Alex Isley, and Keri Hilson, showcasing Benét’s effortless ability to blend modern R&B with timeless soul.
