jjjnobeginningnoend

Jose James’ (“Blackmagic” & “For All We Know”) long awaited new album “No Beginning, No End” dropped yesterday on Blue Note Records. It’s been almost 3 years since we’ve heard new material from him and the wait has been more than worth it. You can now purchase “No Beginning, No End” from iTunes, Amazon and in physical form wherever quality music is sold. Preview the album @ NPR and know that between Jesse Boykins III, Bilal, Miguel, Jose James, Coultrain, Dwele, Olivier DaySoul, Miles Bonny, Ryan Michael Gant, Phonte Coleman and many others that R&B/Soul is in good hands. Don’t sleep…
