Boney James’s latest, 2024’s Slow Burn is a new high point in a remarkable career that now spans more than three decades. He has earned a long list of accolades: four Grammy nominations and three NAACP Image Award nominations. Also, a Soul Train Award for Best Jazz Album and four RIAA Gold Record certifications. In 2009, Billboard named James one of the Top 3 Contemporary Jazz Artists of the decade. In 2024, Boney became the first ever artist to score twenty Number One singles on the Billboard Smooth Jazz chart.
But James has never been one to look backwards and Slow Burn, which the artist produced, marks several firsts. These begin with the album’s opening track, “Arcadia”. Here, the very first notes on the album are the acoustic bass playing of the legendary Marcus Miller. It’s one of the few times that Miller, known for his electric bass guitar work, has committed his standup bass playing to a recording. Furthermore, it is the first time that James has incorporated an upright bass into his own music.
Next is James’ intriguing interpretation of the classic “Butterfly,” co-written by master keyboardist Herbie Hancock and Bennie Maupin. Then, the track features Marcus Miller again as well as young lion Cory Henry’s inspired electric piano. “This beautiful melody got stuck in my head,” explains James. “I have never covered a tune by a legend like Herbie before and I hope we did him justice.”
Rising star R&B vocalist October London is featured on the first single from the album, “All I Want Is You”. James says, “It’s one of the most exciting vocal collaborations I’ve ever recorded.”
