THE JOURNEY CONTINUES: Renowned R&B recording artist Dyshon Benson’s ‘The Loneliness’ has made its highly-anticipated debut
Andre Johnson DEFINING MOMENT
DALLAS — As the old saying goes, “You know you’ve made it when people can identify you by only your first name.”
To Dyshon Benson’s credit, such a notable perception undoubtedly rings true.
Suitably known as “Dyshon” in the ever-so-competitive entertainment industry, Benson has taken yet another massive step toward re-establishing himself as arguably one of the most gifted and celebrated singers of this generation.
In a rather spirited Facebook post on February 26, Dyshon ceremoniously announced the release of “The Loneliness,” his highly-anticipated new video in which listeners can watch, share, and download the song wherever music is sold.
“It’s finally here!” Dyshon announced on various message boards, a development that subsequently sent fans into a frenzy, particularly those who have followed the singer’s immeasurable musical talents since the mid-to-late 1990s.

A native of Philadelphia, Dyshon is an accomplished R&B recording artist, songwriter and producer who is famously known for his lead singer role for Az Yet, a Philly-based R&B group whose coming out party was spearheaded by the hit songs “Last Night,” as well as the cover, “Hard to Say I’m Sorry,” a hit that was originally performed by Chicago.
A prominent Grammy-nominated, award-winning R&B group that was produced by Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds of LaFace Records, Dyshon bolted Az Yet in 1995 to pursue a solo career.
He has since been as good as advertised.
“DyShon Benson is actually what the doctor ordered,” Kar Bella, a spokesperson for Benson’s camp told Making Headline News this week. “Singing is not just what he does. It’s who he is.”
A beloved globally-acclaimed R&B recording artist I his own right, Dyshon has been singing since the tender age of five. His genuine talent, coupled with his keen ability to entertain the masses were evident as a child, considering many who have followed his gift appropriately described him as one who was “definitely born to sing” — a proven fact that was ultimately reinforced in his first performance in a junior high talent show, during which his road to stardom was discovered.
REMARKABLE MUSIC RESUME
After his untimely departure from Az Yet 25 years ago, Dyshon was destined to retain the revered household name his fanbase had come to embrace when he first set foot on the R&B’s grandest stage.
To his distinctly unique credit, DyShon recorded two singles for the Lion Gate film soundtrack, “O”. Consequently, his single, “Thug Lady,” was charted on Billboards in 2002.
Not to be outdone, Dyshon would ultimately release “My Story,” an album that is comprised of 12 songs, arguably one his most well-publicized milestones before he rejoined Az Yet for a second run that would last for three years.
AN “AZ YET” CLASSIC
Savoring the luxury of working with producers such as Neyo, B Slade, and Babyface camp, Antonio Dixon, Dyshon’s “The Loneliness” is accompanied by a cover image of Babyface, an 11-time Grammy Award-winner who produced eight solo and six collaboration albums between 1986 and 2014.
Having checked in at No. 20 amongst New Musical Express’ (NME) 50 of The Greatest Producers Ever list, Babyface has become an international fixture composing R&B and dance songs, having written and produced music for Bobby Brown (“Roni”), Karyn White (“Love Saw It”), Pebbles (“Girlfriend” and “Mercedes Boy”), The Whispers (“Rock Steady” and “In The Mood”), The Deele (“Two Occasions”), Johnny Gill (“My My My”), After 7 (“Ready or Not”), The Boys (“Dial My Heart”), Damian Dame (“Right Down To It”) and Sheena Easton, and TLC.
