Black Magic

Black Magic

Reissue of this 2010 album from the acclaimed vocalist. Often referred to as a jazz singer for the hip-hop generation, New York City-based vocalist JosÂ© James combines jazz, soul, drum'n'bass, and spoken word into his own unique brand of vocal jazz. While he states his main influences as John Coltrane, Marvin Gaye, and Billie Holiday, his sound on early 12" singles and in live performances brought to mind such icons of '70s jazz-soul as Terry Callier, and his music felt more like an update of the fluid crossover approach of Gil Scott-Heron, while also being distinctly his own.
