When K`Jon languorously croons "I`m finally gettin` around" on the title track of his 2009 debut slab I GET AROUND, he`s putting it lightly. Like Anthony Hamilton and so many others before him, the years of hustle pour out in the singer`s impassioned voice, and when he intones the near-cliche "I just want you so bad/it just seems so real" in the intro to the torch song "On The Ocean," there`s a hunger behind his words of desire giving them power.
An otherworldly `70s vibe pours out of K`Jon on the first half of I GET AROUND, a late-night AM radio tenor of passion and seduction and sex and discarded liquor bottles. His dabbles in the present are less fantastic, but he brings the past and present on "On Everything," a spare track which mixes a sinister, slightly chopped & screwed beat with a beautiful piano hook, and the perfect bedroom-eyed vocals, buoyed by the requisite guest rap (this time by Seven the General). K`Jon at his best combines the sensual prowess of Barry White with the sadness-in-struggle of Bill Withers, dropping a dash of deep soul into the heart of the auto-tune generation.

      • The Best

        This has got to be the best CD of the year. I love his voice and style and it recommends itself. I got the last one at the store the day after it came out. My two best friends heard it while visiting me from Milwaukee, and got it when they went back home. One played it so much, her co-worker got it, and another friend of mine heard it in my car and got it. His voice and colorful style is a combination of jazz and R&B and the fact that he knows the Truth makes it even better! This will be the best purchase of a CD that you will make for years to come. He has a combination of dance and mellow sounds that makes this debut CD outstanding. You can play this CD without interruption and it is a winner when you have guest over. I can't find it in the stores anymore, so I am ordering it from Overstock as a gift to a friend. Trust me......You will LOVE it! Brother is easy on the eyes too!
