You heard right. Bentley Jones, constant music-making-machine, is at it yet again. Not even six months after his last release, he is already back at it, working on yet another project. I had spoken with him briefly in an exclusive interview about his next steps, but it wasn't until now that we finally know the direction he's heading. He's got one new surprising single out, and he's driving it straight through to a new multi-album project. Check out "Moi... Lolita".
"Moi... Lolita" is Ben's first French single, making it a very unique track. The song has been very well received by both his French and international fans. This is definitely a new direction for the pop singer who's primary releases have been English and Japanese up until this date. The track is a cover of another artist named Alizee, which was a top ten hit in countries around the world, including number one on Japan's Oricon charts.
The release of this came with a very exciting announcement from the Bentley Jones team. "Moi... Lolita" is the first single from his new album Home (TRANS//LATION 3: Chapter I). That's right, guys. Chapter I. This project is planned to be three full albums, each with it's own theme. The theme for Home is focusing on Western countries, recreating different hits countries in Europe and North America (presumably).
Although no track list or even names of other artists he's covering mentioned, we do have a release date for Home. He will be granting us this gift March 22, his 30th birthday and the 6th anniversary of the very first TRANS//LATION. He has promised that the album's two companion parts will not be far behind. Now can I just get me a Bentley Jones/Koda Kumi cover please?
For now you can snag "Moi... Lolita" on his official site!
