I was so happy when I ran across "Code," the first video off of Jose James' latest album, Blackmagic. I didn't even know he had a new album in the works! I first found out about Jose late last year from soulculture.co.uk. Looking at him you'd never expect he'd emanate such rich and jazzy vocals - he sounds like an old jazz singer with a lifetime of life experience under his belt. I immediately fell in love with his voice and enjoyed his debut "The Dreamer" quite a bit. I can't wait to pick up his latest; listening to samples of the tracks, it sounds like he's trying different things musically and I love to see talented artists stretching their wings. http://www.josejamesmusic.com/
