Jon B. puts his own spin on the Bob Marley classic in tribute to the legend. I think he did a good job on this one, although of course you can’t even compare it to the original. This was included on the “Light It Up” soundtrack back in...
Interesting choice for a first single off of his upcoming album; it seems he’s going in the same direction he went last album with “Closer.” It has that same upbeat, euro techno flavor to it. Ne-Yo premiered this song on his MySpace last night, and...
I’m liking all this new Jon B. material we are getting. Especially because all of it sounds different than the typical Jon B. sound you would expect. “Body Language” is no exception, but I’m really feeling this one. I actually wouldn’t be...
