Eric Roberson | Mask

MASK" is the latest offering from songwriter extraordinaire ERIC ROBERSON. The beautifully-written song serves as a continuation of Eric Roberson's mission to release a new piece of work either every month and or every other month, in an effort to keep inspiring music afficionados around the world. "MASK" was written by Eric Roberson, Daniel Crawford and Jairus "JMo" Mozee and produced by Eric Roberson, Brett "B Dubb" Baker and Zachariah "SlimKat78: McGant. “This was probably my hardest song to write and record this year. Even though I didn't feel it was my story, I dove deep into the character. I cried throughout the entire process. I hope it connects with someone who needs it,” shares Eric.

Being that July is BIPOC Mental Health Month, Eric Roberson partnered with the African American Male Wellness Agency for their "Real Men Real Talk" initiative. In an effort to help maximize the song's reach and impact, promoting vulnerability and healing in our community. BIPOC Mental Health Month was created to bring awareness to the unique mental health challenges of historically disenfranchised and oppressed racial and ethnic groups in the United States.

"MASK", is the latest installment of Eric Roberson cycle of continuously releasing new music for his fans. This very emotional piece of art, joins the previous released songs of the series; "You", "Here For You", "Things Meant For Me", "I Apologize", and "Just Don't Hold It In."

Whether over the course of his seventeen beloved LPs (2001’s The Esoteric Movement to 2022’s Lessons) or through songwriting/production/vocal collaborations with the likes of Jill Scott, Dwele, Musiq Soulchild, Vivian Green, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Spinna and others, fine-tuned R&B music ears have come to recognize and make a somewhat spiritual connection with his everyday relatable, multi-influenced vibe which mirrors their own lives and experiences. “It’s R&B and soul music, but I’m a hip-hop dude,” Eric replies, of his influences as it relates to his music’s appeal.

Indeed, nothing less than heartfelt gratitude for the blessing of being able to continue releasing music through his very own Blue Erro Soul Entertainment, as well as accolades which have included two successive Grammy nominations for “Best Urban/Alternative Performance” (for “A Tale of two” in 2010; “Still” in 2011), a BET J Virtual Award for “Underground Artist of the Year” (2008), being distinguished as the first independent artist to be nominated for a BET Award in 2007 and sold-out tours throughout the world is what makes Eric Roberson, "The Soul Man himself".
