Finding inspiration while on his recent European tour, Eric Benet hooked up with producers The Afropeans to work on a remixed version of his last album, The One. The soulful crooner and the production team looked to revisit the songs by giving them a whole new ‘electro pop’ sound for his European fans.

The project, titled The Other One, will be released to European retailers May 19 via Peppermint Soul Records. The second single from the LP is the electro version of “Lay It Down,” which hits iTunes on May 12, and has a new visual for fans to watch.

Eric is seen belting out the tune against a plain white backdrop, while scenes of a young women fighting the struggle to find her way lead the story.

“I revisited the album creatively and gave it a whole new fresh, interesting sound, might even be a little surprising,” he said in an announcement video.
