One of my favorite Michael Jackson songs, R.I.P. to one of the greatest to ever perform in music. He did music videos like nobody else could, or has done since, just amazing and timeless.

Well, I have to admit this is my introduction to Leela James’ music, but I must say it’s a good first impression! This soulful duet with Raheem is from her third album “My Soul” which just released May 25th.
