Eric Benet returns to his hometown, Milwaukee, today, July 2, for a block party and concert on 23rd Street between Chambers and Burleigh. The start time for the event has not been announced.

The free show is a promotion for his upcoming release, "Love and Life," and a tribute to his old neighborhood. The video for his current single, "You're the Only One," will be filmed on location.

The r&b soul singer / songwriter / producer, of course, was once married to Halle Berry. Benet recorded his latest Friday / Reprise / Warner Bros. Records release in Milwaukee with his longtime production partner Demonte Posey and writer / producer / cousin George Nash, Jr. It comes out Sept. 9.
