WASHINGTON, May 18 /PRNewswire/ -- BET J continues to be the leader in delivering black entertainment and lifestyle programming for the adult viewer and scores another hit with the special music video debut of captivating crooner Sachal Vasandani. The "Cool Like That" digital channel announced today that the highly-anticipated music video entitled "Naked As We Came" will exclusively premiere on Monday, May 21 at 1:00 p.m. ET/PT in a special broadcast of BET J's top-rated music program, SOUL SESSIONS.

The Sachal Vasandani music video premiere is also complemented by a variety of network marketing efforts leading up to the music video debut, including an exclusive online interview featuring the Mack Avenue Records artist on www.BETJ.com as well as extensive on-air promotion. Viewers can look forward to "The Naked As We Came" music video airing in heavy rotation on SOUL SESSIONS from May - July 2007. SOUL SESSIONS is more than a music show - it encompasses the many different elements of soul, and fuses the finest live performances with today's hottest music videos covering all music genres that touch and uplift the soul.

"There are very few songwriters and vocalists whose music transcends beyond one particular music genre that attracts and appeals to the BET J viewer," stated Paxton Baker, Executive Vice President & General Manager of BET J and President of BET Event Productions. "Sachal Vasandani fits within our diverse, multicultural programming slate, and this is why we are proud to exclusively broadcast his music on our digital network."

Filmed on location in Hollywood, California, and produced and directed by the multi-talented Anthony E. Garth, the "Naked As We Came" music video is the latest single from Sachal Vasandani's Mack Avenue Records debut, "Eyes Wide Open".
