José James - Let's Get It (Official Audio)

José James - the forward-looking, genre-defying Jazz singer for the hip-hop generation - has done it again. “1978” (his 12th studio album since 2008’s “The Dreamer'') announces an instant classic, combining James’ deep love of jazz and hip-hop with songwriting and production nods to R&B heroes Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson and Leon Ware. Produced by James and featuring an all-star ensemble including Grammy nominees Pedrito Martinez (Camilla Cabello, Eric Clapton), Marcus Machado (Daniel Ceasar, Pharoahe Monch), Jharis Yokley (Sleigh Bells, My Brightest Diamond) Chad Selph (Bilal, FREELANCE) and David Ginyard (Solange, Blood Orange), “1978” pulsates with the socially conscious feel-good vibes of Marvin Gaye, Prince and Stevie Wonder. James also skillfully explores the boundaries of Black music, featuring Brazilian rising star and recent Latin Grammy nominee Xênia França as well as Congolese-Belgian rapper/filmmaker Baloji.

Come on let’s get it baby

I’ve been trying so hard

Not to think so far

About you baby and what I want to do

To your body and mind

Every night all the time

Look at me baby

Do you want me too?

Something takes hold of me

When I hit the floor with you

I’m gonna take you places you ain’t been

Higher

In ecstasy

Desire

Get next to me

I’m gonna give you everything you need

Oh oh

Take your time

Unwind

Sip that glass of wine

Look at you baby

In your glory

In this space and time

I can make you mine

If you’re wanting to explore me

Something takes hold of me

When I hit the floor with you

I’m gonna take you places you ain’t been

Higher

In ecstasy

Desire

Get next to me

I’m gonna give you everything you need

Oh oh

Come on let’s get it baby
