Luke James – Discotheque album download

Luke James shares a new album titled Disotheque. Luke James remains the rare artist who can fade from the public eye for a minute and still avoid falling into Hollywood obscurity. The R&B singer-songwriter and acclaimed actor’s voice notably etched its way into our hearts when he opened for Beyoncé’s 2013 Mrs. Carter World Tour and during stints working alongside the late Prince as well. Still, the Grammy nominations, screaming fans, and limelight didn’t pull James away from his real dream — fervent artistry.

With some downtime to focus on himself and renewed creative aspirations, he emerged on our screens starring as singer Johnny Gill in the 2017 BET mini-series, The New Edition Story — proving his vocals had only ripened in his time away.

“I want to create music that moves me, not just music that is going to get me famous or make someone at a label happy,” James tells Billboard when talking about today’s (June 1) exclusive listen to his new song,”These Arms.”

“I found myself running from somebody else’s fears. And, stepping away from it all together has been a breath of fresh air, truly. It has been another experience. And, now I have a new life,” he says. After cultivating sexy soundscapes and returning for season three of Lee Daniels’ Atlanta-based television drama series Star, James is relishing what’s to come. Billboard chatted with the triple-threat about the nostalgic soul of his new single, why love is an addiction, how he personally relates to his character on the Fox series and the importance of not compromising your songwriting authenticity.
