George Benson wants to collaborate with “that kid” Usher. Speaking to a packed press conference as part of the Mawazine Festival in Morocco on Saturday, Benson said he is fond of the OMG pop star.
“He is someone I would like to work with,” he said. “He is versatile, sophisticated and has a good mind.”
Benson also said the jazz and pop world is rapidly changing, with more female talent on offer. “I am telling you, man, the ladies are taking over,” he said. “There are so many beautiful voices coming up now and it is good to have that balance.” – The National staff
