Minneapolis bred vocalist José James teams with Oh No who provides this soulful remix of "Trouble". José is a true talent of R&B to watch for in 2011 and beyond, a formerly trained musician who has been mentored by greats such as Chico Hamilton and the pianist Junior Mance and has worked on songs with Flying Lotus, Moodymann, Taylor McFerrin, and DJ Mitsu the Beats. Oh No is showing his range on this remix as a prolific producer who has the ability to branch out of Hip Hop and provide ear-opening sounds.

Jose James with Miguel Atwood Ferguson Ensemble - "Harlem" (A Tribute To Gil Scott Heron)



On July 9, 2011, Jose James gave an outstanding and heartfelt performance, paying tribute to the late Gil Scott-Heron. He was accompanied by The Miguel Atwood Ferguson Ensemble who lend their musical magic to this outdoor performance in Harlem. I hope this collaboration between Jose and Miguel Atwood Ferguson comes out as an official studio recording!
