José James, the forward-looking, genre-defying jazz singer for the hip-hop generation, has done it again. 1978, his 12th studio album and first since 2008’s The Dreamer, announces an instant classic, combining James’ deep love of jazz and hip-hop with songwriting and production nods to R&amp;B heroes Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson and Leon Ware. Produced by James and featuring an all-star ensemble, 1978 pulsates with the socially conscious feel-good vibes of Marvin Gaye, Prince and Stevie Wonder
