Luke James Is Ready To Make Love On Free Mixtape

Right before Christmas Luke James unveiled his free mixtape '#LUKE' which should help you get through these cold & lonely nights. The first single "I Want You" is also included and shows his lovely Prince-like voice. You could say this is R&B in its purest form wrapped in a modern mixtape flavor.

Rest asured that this is a pre-cursor what is yet to come in 2012. His debut full length album 'Made to Love' is expected early next year. His mixtape is available for your streaming pleasure at Datpiff.

His music is being praised into the heaven but are they right? There might be a slight influence by hip-hop but I do not hear it. He does have outstanding R&B vocals although I have not heard him perform live. I have to admit that this is R&B in its purest form as it was a decade ago.

Having already charmed critics from coast to coast, like being named Hip Hollywood’s October 2011 “Artist of the Month,” one of AOL’s The Boombox’s “Top 15 Artists to Watch” and being asked to headline Give Back Hollywood / VH1 Save The Music Foundation’s Pre MTV VMA benefit, Luke James will wrap his multi-city opening gig on Robin Thicke’s “Love After War” tour in Philadelphia on December 29, 2011. Luke James’ growing celebrity fan base includes Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Estelle and none other than Beyoncé, who selected him for a featured role in her “Run the World” video, and Melanie Fiona, who featured him as her boyfriend in her “4 A.M.” music video. Luke James is also the co-writer of Chris Brown’s “Crawl” and has penned songs for Justin Bieber (“That Should Be Me”), Michael Bolton, and Britney Spears (“Kill The Lights”), among others.
