A couple weeks ago, I posted this video on Twitter/Facebook with the bold statement “Every time Luke James hits the high notes in ‘I Want You,’ an angel gets its wings.”
And I really think so.
Luke James, a New Orleans native, is my latest R&B obsession. James has written for Bieber and Britney, opened for Beyoncé, and was nominated for a Grammy (Best R&B Performance for “I Want You”). Spend an hour like I may or may not have watching live YouTube videos of him and you might just become as obsessed as I did. Preceding his official album, which will be released this year, he released Whispers in the Dark, a 10-song collection that you can get for free. I love it all.
Get “I Want You” on iTunes.

This may be the male equivalent to Beyonce’s “Love on Top”
