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.

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

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
