New York-via-Minneapolis singer Jose James was once comfortable being the
oddball talent of the contemporary jazz scene, an unknown quantity in a
world with plenty of known ones; ôWhen it's all said and done, jazz with a
capital J is where I'm coming from,ö he told Billboard in 2010. ôDexter
Gordon, Billie Holiday, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk--
that's what I really studied when I was a teenager and what really fueled
my passion.ö While that loyalty manifested itself in releases like 2008Æs
The Dreamer and 2010Æs Blackmagic-- two albums that showcased JamesÆ
penchant for genre-stretching while sprinkling in more straightforward
covers-- his sound has always been hard to peg.
For his new record No Beginning No End, heÆs staying true to that
wanderlust, enlisting musicians like bassist Pino Palladino (who famously
helped construct neosoul gems like DÆAngeloÆs Voodoo as well as Erykah
BaduÆs MamaÆs Gun) and contemporary jazz star Robert Glasper as well as
Franco-Moroccan singer Hindi Zahra. While heÆs always been one to try stuff
out-- he successfully collaborated with Flying Lotus on Blackmagic--on No
Beginning No End he finds a way to make an eclectic approach feel unified
and whole.
James sings with a steely grace that does in fact recall DÆAngelo, a
quality only reinforced by PalladinoÆs fingerprint on songs like the
grooving opener ôItÆs All Over Your Bodyö and the back halfÆs soul clap
ôMake It Rightö. But JamesÆ more detached voice isnÆt the weapon that
DÆAngeloÆs proves to be, if youÆre looking at No Beginning No End as a
spiritual cousin of Voodoo or MamaÆs Gun. While JamesÆ record prizes
overarching vibe over song-to-song substance, itÆs more subdued and, in a
sense, more unpredictable: the opener cedes to the hand drum cool-out
ôSword + Gunö, which builds to the straightforward pop reach on the record,
the taut ôTroubleö, which in turn slides into Robert Glasper and JamesÆ
capital J jazz tribute ôVanguardö, a tribute to the Greenwich Village
institution where the song was devised.
Though that sounds like a lot of hopping around-- the poppy, percussive
midalbum standout ôCome to My Doorö is another good example-- No Beginning
No End works smoothly as a suite, which is a testament to James shape-
shifting nature as well as the session musicians' willingness to stay in a
support role. While one could see the temptation to push further into a pop
crossover sweet-spot, No Beginning No End contains few heavy brush strokes.
Though JamesÆ meandering gets the best of him on the slow shuffle ôBird of
Spaceö and the never-quite-gets-there ôUntitledö echo ôDo You Feelö, even
when he misses his low-key restraint retains its charm.
Though No Beginning No End succeeds in its laid-back approach, make no
mistake that James is seeking to bust out of the NPR Jazz world and into
the ears of new audiences. In March, he'll play Music Hall of Williamsburg,
Bowery Presents' Brooklyn hype thermometer (also playing that month: Sky
Ferreira, How to Dress Well, Savages, Django Django), just a 20-minute
train ride from the Village Vanguard but a world away. With previous
releases, he's earned his heroic acclaim in the tough, tried-and-trusted
lanes of contemporary jazz. With No Beginning No End, he's built his own
road out.
