Wonderful

Rick James

The King of Punk-Funk opted for digital sheen over the organic grit of his seventies work. Synthesizers take the lead on this project, providing a clean, late-decade vibe.

Programming creates the precise rhythms that dominated R&B charts during the era. A collaboration with Roxanne Shanté showcases the artist connecting his signature sound to the emerging hip-hop landscape.
