Celebrated jazz singer of the hip-hop generation José James returns with a blazing Alice Coltrane meets J Dilla version of Erykah Badu’s classic hip-hop anthem The Healer. Featuring a star band of BIGYUKI on keys, Ben Williams on bass, Jharis Yokley on drums and introducing rising star 18-year-old Ebban Dorsey on sax, James stays deep in the head-nod intensity of the original while taking the art form to the furthest reaches of Black cosmic jazz.
