Addicted To You

Ben l'Oncle Soul is a French soul singer-songwriter with a retro style. Born in 1984 in Tours (Indre-et-Loire, France), he took his name and look from Uncle Ben, the fictitious character dressed in a bow tie who serves as the brand image of Uncle Ben's Rice. His eponymous debut album was released by Motown Records in 2010. The album is comprised entirely of original material, plus the cover version of the White Stripes hit 'Seven Nation Army' and sold more than 600 000 copies all around the world.

The retro sound of earlier albums can be found in places on the eleven new songs, but there are clearly more contemporary influences, so that “Addicted To You” sounds like a journey through different eras of soul music. Ben is supported by Yuna, Samory I and the French rap legends IAM.
