sound discovery
i recently stumbled upon this artist browsing the net. his
name is jose james of brownswood recordings. the label
founded by worldwide music ambassador gilles peterson.
i'm actually late getting hip to dude. his debut the dreamer
came out in 08'. unlike many of the so called "soul/r&b
singers" of today you feel the soul in james' voice and delivery.
i respect the versatility in his sound. from jazz to soul to hip
hop to future soul and everything in between. it sounds
organic and not forced. he's collaborated with artists diverse
as basement jaxx and jazzanova. his sophomore release
blackmagic was just released. it contains code produced by
flying lotus of which the video is of below. friends we love
made this simple but dope video. so turn down the lights
and enjoy ha ha! peace.
