Mark Solborg, Anders Banke, Bjørn Heebøll: Angels

Jose James: No Beginning No End
by Enrique Turpin
Tal vez no sea intención de José James (Mineápolis, 1978) reemplazar a D'Angelo en el reinado del neo-soul que se empezó a fraguar a mediados de los años 90, pero puede que lo logre sin proponérselo.
