I feel privileged to watch this young man's rise to stardom.
as in not being dead and having internet access?
Ditto. THIS is what ALL humans should aspire to become!
Totally agree
ruclips.net/video/VafXwQGS24I/видео.html
@@giurguvea that too, but the privilege of hearing this
The colors, styling, energy and gorgeous people...ya'll aced the assignment. Jon, you have a new fan. Pure joy!!!
I was just thinking the same.
It's literally a pleasure to the senses.
I agree! I can't stop watching this or listening to it. This should be played everywhere.
That's New Orleans Baby!!! 😊😊😊😁😘
I also thinking the same
Now that's soul, black soul, that's the way they dance in Louisiana. My kind of music that makes even the cripple want to get up and shack that back side. I enjoy all of your music videos, especially this one. Thanks, Mr. Batiste, for bringing joy, laughter and body-movement into our lives. WELL, DONE Mr. Soul Man. 01-30-24.
Marvin's proud legacy. Motown's vibe is still groovin' babe
As a disabled person with autoimmune arthritis and just leaving the hospital with pneumonia, this video rocked my world. I wish I had taken time to appreciate the movement and freedom to breathe. Now sitting here watching this video I can’t take my eyes off of all of you. Jon this video is so uplifting that I cannot stop watching it. Thank you. I will never take any movement for granted again.
I hope the Medical Medium books can assist you. They have helped me tremendously when the doctors couldnt.
@@shellchenonceau6987 nope! I'm catholic
Sometimes music is all we need to feel good and be happy.
Exactly I don’t delve into mediums and all that, look to God hes all you need!
@@SharonCullenArt AMEN! So wonderful to hear. Only the Lord. The other stuff is like inviting things you don't want into your home. I hope that you will be feeling better soon. I deal with constant pain myself. I saw something earlier on animals listening to music and that brightened up my day. Thought I would pass that on. I find humor and laughter helps. And prayers. I will send some your way.
Jon Batiste is a ray of sunshine on two legs.
That effortless beaming
Most accurate compliment ever.
Yeeees!!! Thanks for your great expression💛🌞💛🌞It's raining in Tokyo but I can feel the sunshine and sense of freedom through the dark and cloudy sky.
I 2nd that emotion.
▶️🅰️
@@1...MusicVideo hello A1!!!
I love that these folks are real sizes and shapes and faces of people- NOT models.
His concert was phenomenal in Atlanta at Tabernacle! Do NOT miss an opportunity to see him live!
My mom is buried in New Orleans and I was missing her A LOT today. You Tube recommended this video to me. I think this is my mom's way of telling me she is good. Love you mommy!💓
That’s so great. Thanks for sharing this 😀
Bri, you are so sweet!! I lost my mom to COVID last November, and your comments touched my heart. 💕❤️ Sending you and your dear mom loving thoughts from NC! 🥰🙏
That is so beautiful. I lived in New Orleans for twelve years and I promise your Mother is resting in a beautiful place. ❤
Heavenly shout out to Moms. She's smiling down on you Bri...still looking out for her little girl. My mom is up there with her.
I think about how much my mom would've loved Jon Batiste every time I listen to him, too. Just such a great spirit
No lie, I'm here after the Grammys--because I'd never heard of this guy before. But after listening this song (and I'll check out a few more on his channel for sure), he DESERVED the win! His music is good!!!!
Me too
So TRUE!!! Hat's off Sir Jon Batiste :D
🤣
So true he deserved!!
Yep, me too
This is how we should all wake up in the morning!!
This is literally one of the happiest things I've seen in my life
I first heard this song from my next door neighbors. He is an older gentlemen and his wife passed in early 2020. His family comes over on Sundays and they blast music in their driveway and have a dance party with mostly gospel music or jazz. My family and I always dance in our driveway with them and that's when I heard this song. I really loved it and now I'm a big fan of Jon Batiste. Thank you to my neighbors!
Very talented man ! I've watched him for awhile and saw him finally become the best in his music. It's so refreshing ! Love his dancing too.!
Wish I lived in your neighborhood!. Rock on and keep dancing. I am soon to be 70 and would love someone like your neighbor!
That's a cool story, happy you dance with em!!
@@bluewaters3100 me too - I'm that "old guy" out front with the JBL speaker blasting the new tunes like this! But my neighbors just sit inside!
Wow, I feel like your story really embodies what Jon was singing about in this song :) neighbors coming together to dance, love it
Listening to Jon Batiste is like discovering warm rays of sunshine after a long winter ❤️
Yesssssss!!
Excellent description! ❤️👏
Perfect!
He really is a ray of sunshine, so true.
When that 'mirage' turns out to be real, an oasis filled with the coolest fresh water.
Oh yeah, FREEDOM, thank you beautiful brother of light and love.
John Batiste is an incredible musician, composer and one of the most talented entertainers in the world.
Jon Batiste: The Epicenter Of Positivity.
I just described him as a superior and most sincere human being. I love what you said about him!
Beautiful video!!! SHARING!!!
He’s been the band for Stephen Colbert for years. He’s been killing it there for a long time too. Juilliard trained….unlimited talent!!!
I knew I had seen him before.!
Love him. Like the comment reminds me of James brown. Chuck berry , Michael Jackson great vibe and freedom!!!!! I have to dance when I hear his music😀🤩😊
Yes! This "kid" is SO talented! And he & his longtime love just got married. I'm praying she regains her health, and wishing them all the best life has to offer! 💗
@@cathycarney-prescott5160 Nice Comparison. I would add Andre Benjamin. AKA Andre 3 thow wow.
..talent runs in his family...all musicians
I don't know if the four ladies were given the applause for their performance, but I truly enjoyed their performance.
I don't think most people understand the Batiste legacy that Jon represents. You gotta' love the man and the family legend he's carrying on.
This is hands down, the most New Orleans thing I have seen today.
▶️🅰️
Indeed
I think the only thing in existence that is more New Orleans than this is actual New Orleans.
Yeah but have you seen Celeste's Stop This Flame?
ruclips.net/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/видео.html .
He deserved the Grammys, this is the music of healing.
Absolutely
Yes it is God See's all And God People are put on this Earth to be God's Disciples And it's hard to pass God's test Because no human being is perfect But we as God's children Can overcome And pass God's test We are humans So everyone Please be Safe Well And Positive And Blessed 💯 👏🙏
Absolutely ❣️
I don't think so
@@momendahdl1252 why? Who should have won? Just asking. I believe Lenny Kravitz should be recognized for a long time now and hasn't been. The man (Lenny) is a legend, writes all his music, plays all the instruments and has stayed true to himself since 1989. Lifetime achievement and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He is just so chill and so wonderful.
I can hear Prince in there. Happy to see his genius being recognized by today's artists
Those suits are killer. The wardrobe, the colors, the creativity, and more make my heart swell with happiness
I loved spotting all the little nods to New Orleans in this video, the second-line style dancing, Mardi Gras Indians, the little kids drumming on fleur de lis buckets, Spanish moss, brightly painted houses, the St. Aug Marching Knights, and more. This video makes my heart both full and incredibly homesick. You nailed it again, Jon! Fantastic job by a true artist.
Little nods??? Hahaha. The entire video and the soul of the music IS new orleans ,,😋
@@zenalchemist3378 hahaha fair enough. ❤️⚜️
@@LavendersBlue504 guessing you live here or at least visited a few times😋
@@zenatman Born and raised for the first 30 years of my life, but I currently live out of state. Hoping to move back soon.
@@LavendersBlue504 "there's no place like home" think that was some wizard of oz reference 😋
This guy is bringing music back to how it should be.
Underrated comment 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Yessss
Yes
Síii
Amazing song dance🥰😘🤩😍
I came across this song accidentally, and now I just can't stop listening!!!
Hi, check out "I need you" & a newer song Butterflies 🦋. Reminds me of my sister that passed.
I came across it by accident too...I cannot stop listening either, with all the negativity right now, I love this positivity ...makes me smile😍
@@jilldove5793 I checked out those songs you suggested. Both are beautiful songs. I'm guessing your sister was a beautiful person. So sorry to hear of your loss. May you still sense her loving presence.
I LOVE this video SO MUCH! I moved to New Orleans a few years ago, and this video captures the spirit of this place so perfectly!
Just the other night, Jon Batiste came to my neighborhood to play at a small, but very famous, music venue, the Maple Leaf. It sold out before anyone heard about it, but we went down just to catch a glimpse of this genius as he got out of the car to go in, and we did! It was a thrill!
The whole neighborhood turned out, there were people selling barbecue and drinks on the street! So NOLA.
production team: Jon, how many snazzy suits to you want?
Jon Batiste: Yes.
😆
Nobody rocks a snazzy suit better than Jon Batiste! NOBODY! At least not since we lost Michael Jackson. Can you imagine what a collaboration between those two artists would have been like? Pure joy!
lol
OMG YAAAS
No nudity
No slurs
No fancy crap
No N word
Just absolute beauty of a song
Coming to check this out after the Grammy win! I can already see why it won! What a a beautiful way to represent the city of New Orleans. So gorgeous and lively.
Sis this didn't deserve a Grammy.... Let's be serious
@@timothykipkorir9267 right..
Yes.it.does. .......
@@timothykipkorir9267 Actually it deserved five Grammys
I love this man. What a gift to the world you are, Jon.
That pink suit is 🔥
Love Jon's peacock aesthetic, strutting his stuff and looking so fine! And yeah, the whole thing is JOYFUL. Great to see a consummate musician get up and move about in such a FASCINATING way - you are carving your own niche, young man, and we are all enjoying you do that, thank you so much!
Jon is joy incarnate. What a wonderful, gracious musician. He loves every minute. Thank you for sharing your beauty and joyous nature.
The white socks reminds me of Michael Jackson
And in addition to being a consummate musician, who doesn't love the shiny pink suit? Long live JOY! ♥️
ruclips.net/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/видео.html .
I agree. Great Peacock asthetic and I would definitely know a thing or two about that.
I am from the New Orleans area, and this video perfectly captures the true essence of the city. The vibrant colors represent many of the city's traditions. He included the St. Aug marching band in the video, and that is just perfect. He went to school there. This is an excellent video, and a love letter to New Orleans.
How can one listen to it & not smile & want to get up & move your body??
I saw St. Aug too!!!
Yes ma’am!!! St. Aug, the city, the people, the colors, the food and MY people!! Shout out to the 17th, and my people backatown!!
I live in Lower Lafourche. When younger one could take a trip to the Quarter and just dance
away to the music.
Many memories. Music and New Orleans are one.
Cajun Lady
@@susancallais1397 From Thibod ux here...
Jon really showed the soul and culture of New Orleans in this song/video that I’ve come to know and love during the couple of years I’ve lived here. He was on Claiborne and in the 6th/7th wards. I love it. New Orleans stand up! 🙏🏾🖤⚜️
GREAT SONG!!!!! I booked the Batiste Brothers many times when you were just a little kid. So proud that you are a shinning light in New Orleans!!!!
Jon Batiste is a global treasure. I can't believe we get to witness his legacy in real time.
ruclips.net/video/a3gyfuaD0JA/видео.html
I love your reply!
ruclips.net/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/видео.html .
Finally someone who actually DESERVES their Grammy nomination! Congratulations Jon!
A supremely gifted human spirit! God took his time with this man🤎 How proud his family must be to have raised such an uplifting artist...
Many more deserves
I agree, he has real talent!
Right on.
THIS!!
Such a high vibrational music he creates, god keep him for us❤
Best line: "When i look up to the stars, i know exactly who we are❤"
Finally, a black video where people actually have on clothes, not guns, no drugs, no violence! Love it!
He’s won five Grammys!
Definitely deserved all eleven of them,
but I’m glad he’s got five including
“Album Of The Year”!.
How did he win.. most everyone I've asked doesn't know him. Just look at the comments: "Here because of the Grammy's"
@@RobertXPhotography , I suppose, because Grammys are decided my music professionals. And every musician in the US knows and loves him.
@@solderbuff Remember that one time an album of Flute Rock music won.. beating that year’s favorite to win, Metallica? So yeah.. it’s stupid
@@RobertXPhotography , yeah good story. "Alice Cooper: I think what happened was that the old guys in the Grammy organisation who were voting didn’t really recognise any of the names except Jethro Tull. I don’t think they’d ever heard of Metallica, who were a pretty new band." - it confirms my point, that these are voted by industry professionals. And they all love Jon Batiste. The man is a prodigy.
@@RobertXPhotography , btw, may I ask, what would you choose as "Album of the Year"?
Congratulations on the Grammy win for this video! Well deserved!
no
I’m here after the Grammys a didn’t know him , and I love his style
Just heard this the other night I’m 57 and I was jamming on it … great job this is what the world needs some uplifting music thank you … Macon Missouri
I love this !! I miss Jon on the Late Show, but he continues to " SHINE " . He is sooooo talented and his joy is infectious. ❤
never heard of this dude until the grammys this year, how is he not more popular he absolutely killed it
If you are in US, you can watch him in Steven Colbert's show. He is the real deal.
@@claudemiropacheco and just to add, he is Colbert's house band,
Came here because of late nights Grammy. Sad to say I'm just now hearing his music and I think I'm a fan.
@@alicemalt5099 I know that. That's why I referred to the show.
Me too
people celebrating who they are, is the most freeing feeling for me
I wish I was allowed to do that.
@@Gnossiene369 right would be beautiful. Most people fear it. Regardless of where they come from. America or Afghanistan. It's hard to be true to you when people keep telling you who you are.
Right on!!!❤️😎☮️
@@saraohm9753 Yup. Being proud or content/happy where you are or who you are doesn’t mean that you are hostile or look down on others. Sometimes it’s just happy to be happy with no downsides.
▶️🅰️
The very essence of cool. I love this guy! ❤❤❤
2 years later still can’t listen to this song without dancing along and smiling!
He don't lie when says: "when my body move I feel freedom"
It's so amazing!
Yessssssssssssss!
Imoresiobanteee
Maravilloso
10-4🕺🏿🕺🏿🕴🏾🕺🏿
Jon did an AMAZING JOB! The respect he paid to his home and his roots are saturated all throughout this video..."when I look up to the stars I know exactly who we are" chile that verse right there does it for me and the visuals in the video for this verse are so meaningful if not spiritual. Loved every second of this video. Well done Jon 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I sincerely appreciate you for your nice comment , ❤️ it means a lot to me , you are among those that keeps me going I truly 💗 you
Get down with it Jon!
Nothing like remembering your roots.
I'll keep praying for you to reach out to your home town.
Awesome Job!!!
We are Who Dats!
ruclips.net/video/a3gyfuaD0JA/видео.html
So true Lisa, Jon's intelligent and soulful joy in every aspect of New Orleans history and culture is irresistible. He embodies the eccentricity, the swagger, the unique style and charisma of the place, with dignity, grace and humour. So much fabulous work from Jon and his brilliant band members over the last few months - loved his tiny desk performance, his jazz ensemble, his beautiful intertwined national anthems, and that terrific blast "tell the truth". Yes, indeed.
I’ve always loved the New Orleans sound and when I got to visit, it was so fabulous and energetic. So many talented musicians everywhere. I love it even more now
This man is so extremely talented that he'll go down in history!!
Feels like James Brown crossed with Michael Jackson seasoned with a heavy helping of New Orleans
I see a ton of Aretha!
And Bruno Mars?!🌎💧🌏
This does smells like new orleans.
I've never been there, don't know anyone from new orleans, but yes.
And a wee peppering of Elvis legs. =0))
Best description ever! I totally heard it too.
For the longest time, I didn't know much about this guy beyond the fact that he was the bandleader for Stephen Colbert's musical accompaniment. Have since discovered that he is a musical genius who seems to have a heart of gold. He obviously doesn't take himself too seriously either. This song is light-hearted fun, the sort of thing the world needs right now.
And not just right now. If this could get to be the anthem of the world for this century that would do us all some good.
So ditto..you can’t be depressed anywhere near this lover’s music..Colbert brought me here.. ❤️🇨🇦
He is the character in the short animated movie "soul" in pixar too.
ruclips.net/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/видео.html .
Agreed. Absolutely. Thanks 🙏
My body just starts to move when I hear this song! It's freedom! I just can't stay still! Facts❤️💯
Man!!! This song is so addictive! Jon Batiste is such a genius!
This guy can do it all, write, orchestrate, produce......and DANCE!!! Quadruple Threat!!!
He is also a virtuoso on the piano. jaw-dropping performances on the Colbert show.
So incredibly unfair lol.. and people complain about billionaires. But not people with all the talent
@@shiroineko1566 absolutely... he majored from Juilliard both in Jazz and classical music on the piano
And he seems to be a great guy with a sense of humour.
And he seems to be a great guy with a sense of humour.
What a fantastic ambassador for the city of New Orleans.
The shot at the 48 second mark, of Jon leaning on a car underneath the interstate, with the painting of Alan Toussaint behind him, is a place I drive by every day on my way to work. The marching band featured in the video is, I believe, the St. Augustine High School marching band. And the young lady standing in front of the oak trees is someone I follow on Facebook, who's carrying on the Mardi Gras Indian tradition.
And I just learned that apparently Mr. Batiste is an alum of both NOCCA and St. Augustine.
This video makes me happy. Thank you, Mr. Batiste.
💗💞💗
Thank you for this insight , 🙌💓🙌
so it's new orleans?! i was guessing Galveston but clearly those saints
@@DianeLStyma - Yes, ma'am. Definitely New Orleans.
Looks like a lot was filmed in Treme?
This song is perfection. I selfishly miss Jon on Colbert's show, but man, it's even better watching him shine!
i cannot compliment this song enough. such a persistently happy song, it gives me faith in humanity
I am 67...and this song fills my heart with so much joy in a world filled with a lot of darkness and despair.
So true
Cool age, I guess
We all gotta STOP watching the news, START caring for the people in our communities, and MOVE OUR BODIES JUST LIKE THIS!!!
Music for the Soul ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😍😍😍
You go girl and yes, he's got it.
Yes indeed! When I move my body just like this!
Love this sooo much -- but if i move by body like that I'd be in traction. Thank you so much for spreading so much joy
Jon you madlad, you did it again! Absolute banger-material, I'm dancing my socks off😄
Am dancin in my chair! Love it!
I so wish I could - I'm in my 70s now but it doesn't stop me trying. Amazing song!
With all the love you spread, I’m sending some back your way ❤️
Absolutely love this jam!!!!!
Sent it off in honor of my friend that just passed of Parkinson’s 💜. Thank you so much for your BRILLIANCE 💥🎶🎵🎶
She absolutely loved this jam too Jon!!
So healing. So uplifting. So FULL OF LIFE!!!!
Creativity, lots of great colors, happy vibes. I love that the women dancing are in sneakers or low heels. He's fantastic along with an original type video, not the same old same old.
He comes from a family of many musicians.He gave a wonderful humble speech.Have watched him for yrs on late night.
His heart is as good as his music. A very humble man
If they could bottle pure joy, it would look like Jon Batiste's smile.
Yes. Thank you Jon for your joy - which you transmit directly with your music, creativity, and yes, your smile! So grateful
He's a plus to the music that just don't have a real meaning! Love Jon Batiste prayers for you and your beautiful wife.
Helping lift my spirits while in the hospital. Thank you 😊
Tell me one thing Jon Batiste can't do .sing, dance, a fashionista, and yes oh yes twerk too. He is the man!!!❤️
You didn't say nutt'n 'bout those fingas on them keys. Shoo-wee!
No offense, but why the hell isn't this a top 10 hit? For that matter, why isn't it getting heavy rotation airplay? SO GOOD!!!
I agree…it’s so damn creative and beautiful. Maybe the beauty is the issue, sad to say.
That's exactly what I was wondering
It literally just got released, give it a minute..!
Glad you recognize it’s a hit, now more people need to know about it.
Why don’t pay to download it, then you can listen to it whenever you like.
Because it’s terrible….
Your set at Coachella was one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever seen. Thank you
Love this cat. This song moves your body for you, can’t be stopped.
How is a work of art like this, titled FREEDOM, not trending higher the night before our newest national holiday that is literally about freedom? Happy Juneteenth Eve.
Agreed. I'm baffled.
Well stated my man !!!
Greatest Nation in the world, The Republic of America... Blessed to be born in it, Reach for a star you just may grab one.
Plenty much better than chill songs with only 4 chords and cheap concept. .
Because most people still don't understand it, I have to explain it a lot lately, because the talking heads that oppose it are falsifying it's purpose and saying that it's for people who hate America
Celebrating Nawlins his hometown, his roots, his family, his joy...its perfection!!!!!
▶️🅰️
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG!!! It’s become the theme song to my husband’s and my retirement life in Mexico!! FREEDOM!!!! Thanks Jon, down loaded the album and going back for more! 💚🤍❤️
This is the only song where I MUST watch and listen to it! No multi-tasking work.
I vote Jon gets the “Most Beautiful Soul on Earth” award! 🥰 He is “good” personified❤️
Amen!
Always felt like this was overlooked, until he received his Grammy nominations. Glad he actually won Album Of The Year, well deserved Jon Batiste!
Soooo rockin! Had to come watch it another 50 times! 👍🥰
My 3yo is in love with this song. I'm so glad he has such good taste in music.
Jon Baptiste is growing to be a new inspiring, fun artist that this world needs now!
Plus a pink metallic suit!
yeah that suit is awesome!
Pink metallic suit... only Jon can pull it off, and it is amazing... :-)
My thoughts exactly.. he is totally sincere in his positivity.. just amazing, and an incredible talent!
@@crumblecrumble99 I seriously need a nice dress in that material.. wow, love it
ruclips.net/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/видео.html .
I saw it this morning! I can't find it to watch again. Let me tell ya, it's fantastic! The song and the dancing and the backdrop of New Orleans done so well that it's mesmerizing! So filled with joy and it's sort of LIKE the "Happy" video by Pharrell, but it's BETTER! Absolutely proud of this young man, Jon Batiste, from my home state of Louisiana.
ruclips.net/video/a3gyfuaD0JA/видео.html
This song makes me DANCE in my desk chair seat! This absolutely wonderful!!!! What a gift to be able to be a musician of all genres! Singinng, dancing, all of that that!!! Thank you to all musicians, whether you sing or play an instrument that creates this beauty!
Every now and then this comes across my feed and I watch it every dang time. It is a feast for my eyes, my ears and my heart ♥️
This man won 5 Grammy's, 11 Nomi's 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆. When a real musician people don't really know Busts thru the door 🚪 💥
It's lovely assuming we know a person journey
So talented & seems 2 be heck of a nice guy!!
And no auto-tune, like old times
This song is IMMEDIATELY goin on my Wedding Reception Bopping Playlist!
I want to go!!
ruclips.net/video/a3gyfuaD0JA/видео.html
I loved Jon Batiste all those years with Stephen Colbert, and I'm so glad that his career just keeps on growing so millions more can enjoy his genius! Great song, great video!
Praying for his wife and that they have a beautiful holiday season together. He is joy!
everytime I watch this I smile so hard. Jon is a whole minister of Joy
I like that "Minister of Joy!"
Oh man, Jon! You got it! Thanks for sharing your unbelievable, such ORIGINAL talent with the world! It's just what we need at this time!!
Come to me?

got to be honest, didn't know who he was until he won album of the year at the Grammy's. I'm now OBSESSED. Totally deserved it!!!!!!!
So am I, haven't stopped watching -- and now will have to stay up late and watch Colbert.
See and hear him nightly on the Late Show!
Same here!
never heard of him until the Grammy! my husband knew about him from the late night show!!! I just love his stuff!!!
This gives me “Happy” by Pharrell vibes and I mean that in the best way because that was an amazing song! The direction of the video, and the choreography really showcased freedom of movement and expression. Very well done Jon! 🎼
I agree, it reminded me of "Happy" and scenes of people dancing all over the world.
@@adriennelee6371 💯 percent!!
It reminded more of New Orleans music.
Oh man so true! Totally makes me smile 😀
I feel the spiritual ties that echo the vibes of our ancestor "James Brown" classic groove anthem. SAY IT LOUD I'm BLACK &PROUD!!
this song brings out pure JOY!!!!! Thank you Jon!
This song and video is now my go to a happy place when I’m feeling down . It’s been a rough season the last two years as music like this is much needed for these troubling times. Thanks Jon for this awesome performance and talented group of people for making the world a happy place again!
I get it. Peace.
Yes, this is great, but what I love about it is that you can really see Jon's individuality, character, charm, positivity and personality comes through in this. He is a bright light in this world and I love to see him let it shine!
So happy that he is making success outside of late show. Not everyone who come from late night back up bands can transition to solo artists. And he is keeping his music so cultural.
He was a well known jazz artist before late show.
@@StarinthewingsNews Commercially I really did not know him until his late night national broadcast gig. Good that the got the extra boost and did not allow the authentic artist in him get snuffed out.
Beautiful! Joyful! Amazing!
I love this song! It gets me dancing in the middle of my kitchen. How can you not join in the dance party. So good! Thanks for sharing!
