I am so excited for José James - he has been able to lead the life he wants to lead and grow his audience worldwide. His voice is so special and his writting partner and wife are a magical duet... may the story of José James continue to grow.
José - please - do more shows in LA... we must get LA to be your top marketplace and I would love to help - call me.

José James Biography
“Catch up with Jose James now because he's a rarity – an artist evolving at warp speed.”
—NPR All Things Considered
“The vocalist José James makes utterly contemporary music...in his elegant, cerebral, seductive way... [He] skirts categories with ease, fitting in with current R&B innovators like Frank Ocean or Miguel, yet maintaining a strong awareness of a lineage that stretches from Ray Charles to Marvin Gaye to Lou Rawls to Maxwell... he holistically heals the rift between radio-friendly songcraft and virtuoso flair.”
—NPR Music
“[James has] always been one to try stuff out – he successfully collaborated with Flying Lotus on Blackmagic… he finds a way to make an eclectic approach feel unified and whole.”
—Pitchfork
“[James] sounds like the result of the black-pop continuum, jazz and soul and hip-hop and R&B, slow-cooked for more than 50 years.”
—The New York Times
“Is José James a jazz singer or a soul singer? Old school or new school? A guardian of tradition or a seeker of thrills? Yes, yes and yes.”
—Los Angeles Times
"James [is a] genre hybridist who claims both b-boys and jazz purists in his fan base... a winningly singular presence in contemporary American music. Not just singular, but magnetic."
