As the festive season draws near, Vassal Benford, a titan in the music and entertainment industry, is riding high on a wave of gratitude and creativity. The acclaimed R&B and jazz keyboardist recently wrote and produced a new single, “Dedication Song,” an evocative track that encapsulates his deep sense of appreciation. Released under the Benford Jazz Label and expertly mixed by Billboard hitmaker Greg Manning, “Dedication Song” has quickly risen to prominence, becoming the most added new single on Billboard’s Mediabase chart for two consecutive weeks.
Benford, a Grammy-nominated producer, has significantly shaped the music landscape, contributing to over 58 platinum-selling records across diverse genres such as pop, R&B, hip hop, rock, and dance music. Despite his extensive influence and collaborations with a roster of music superstars, Benford’s passion firmly remains rooted in jazz, a genre he continually seeks to redefine. His latest single, “Dedication Song,” is a testament to this commitment, blending a danceable and sensual R&B groove with steamy undertones and the poetic, eloquent expressions of his melodic piano.
The accompanying music video for “Dedication Song,” which has garnered nearly 700,000 views in just four days, serves as a poignant tribute to Benford’s late mentor, the “Godfather of Black Music” Clarence Avant, as well as to his family, friends, and long-time clients.

Reflecting on the single, Benford shared, “’Dedication Song’ is a heartfelt anthem suitable for any occasion, but it holds a special place this holiday season. Its creation was a deeply emotional process, filling me with immense gratitude towards my family and loved ones. We are navigating through strange times where every moment and every act of love is precious. This song is my dedication to everyone, delivered with love.”
“Dedication Song” is the second release from Benford’s upcoming album, “Melody Man,” set to debut in April. Beyond his musical endeavors, Benford is a prolific producer in various entertainment sectors, including film, television, and sports, generating significant revenue and audience engagement worldwide. He manages boxing legend Manny Pacquiao, chairs The B.B. King Estate, and is involved in high-profile projects such as the “After” film trilogy and the television series “Power.”
Benford’s ventures also extend into exciting new projects with Marvel and a documentary about B.B. King, featuring a soundtrack that includes rapper Quavo of Migos. Despite his success in these fields, Benford’s heart remains anchored in the rhythms of jazz and instrumental R&B. His forthcoming album, “Melody Man,” promises to deliver an innovative collection, showcasing collaborations with Grammy-winning guitarist Norman Brown, saxophonist Gerald Albright, and singer-songwriters Aloe Blacc and Moore.
As “Dedication Song” continues to capture hearts and airwaves, it is clear that Vassal Benford remains a defining force in the music industry, seamlessly bridging the realms of creativity and gratitude.
