Just in time for the release of his highly anticipated album "Love & Life," Eric Benet  has climbed to the top of this week's Urban AC chart.   According to BDS, the R&B singer's lead single "You're The Only One" moved to #1 this week, unseating Keyshia Cole's runaway hit "Heaven Sent."   The Grammy nominated R&B/Soul singer's new album follows a four-year hiatus and has been heralded as a soulful journey through romance, love and the joy of living. Returning to his hometown - Milwaukee, Wisconson, Benet worked with longtime production partner Demonte Posey and writer/producer George Nash, Jr. to create a feel-good body of work reminiscent of classic R&B infused with a tint of gospel and jazz.   In related news, Eric Benet has lined up several apperances in celebration of "Love & Life" including a stop by NBC's Today show.   Benet's "Love & Life" hits stores and online retailers September 9th.
