Oh, it’s quite obvious we are describing the thoughts that come to mind after having the pleasure to obtain first access to hearing the upcoming single, ‘Your Heart’ by Artist/Producer James Worthy!

The song Your Heart is just one of many coming from his new EP titled Cups of Koffee.

Listeners can expect to hear Your Heart when it releases on May 17th. The song is not only produced by James himself but also Ronell Sessoms.

We are in the presence of an Artist and Producer who has not disappointed us thus far when it comes to the creativity behind his music, and if you’re not hip to the sounds of James Worthy then in the words of Teyana Taylor, “Google Me baby”. He has worked with your favorite artist’s favorite artist!

Each single he has written and produced takes you on a journey, giving you an experience that replays in your mind with images of past love, current love, and all the matters of Your Heart!

When asking him about the feel and story behind his upcoming single, Your Heart, he says, “It’s a mid-tempo style with live instruments. The concept talks about the temptations of Hollywood while loving someone. The sound is definitely melodic and sexy.” -James Worthy

Now that we are sort of out of our feelings and recovering from matters of the heart, let’s jump into this discussion with James Worthy and see what new genius projects he has in the works because word is that he has signed to a new record label!

As an Artist and Producer, how would you say music has saved you?

Music has always been my safe space in my life. It’s kept me out of trouble, it’s made me feel like I can make others feel good, and it has always inspired me to go after all of my goals no matter what anyone thought about it.

In what ways have you made it your business to remain relevant and yet true to yourself in the industry?

I believe that authenticity will always keep you relevant. Once you begin doing gimmicks it will diminish your longevity. When I create, it is for the sole purpose of showcasing my thoughts, views, energy, and creativity with the world. Not always to please everyone

What has this journey as an Artist over the years taught you about your strengths and weaknesses?

It’s taught me about patience, and that not everyone has your best interest when you thought they did. Understanding your business, and trusting the process are the most important pieces to the puzzle.

You are in the process of releasing new music on May 17th. Tell us about this upcoming project and why it’s special to you.

Yes! My 1st official single of 2024 entitled “Your Heart”. I’m excited for this one because not only is it a new R&B sound for me, but it’s the first official release on my new label Humble Sound Records in partnership with Sony Music, and One9 Music. The song outlines the experiences of what someone in entertainment can go through with someone they love in Hollywood. 

So we know the single is titled, Your Heart, so we can’t help but ask who has your heart these days and are you currently single?

I am currently single. I’ve been dating here and there but no serious relationship. My life has been devoted to achieving certain goals that I have set for myself. That can be difficult to coincide with someone who can compliment me well. But soon the world will see someone alongside me. I know they are waiting.

Who have you been working with lately that we should keep our eyes open to?

There have been many artists but to name a few: Truth Hurts, Big Gipp, Khujo Goodie, Goodie Mob, Peggy Gou, Robin S, COUGA and many others. Truth Hurts is under the Humble Sound Records imprint. 

What Indie Artist(s) do you want to shout out right now for the music world?

Shoutout to COUGA. Another artist under the Humble Sound Records imprint. Be on the lookout for her!

What goes into the making of being James Worthy? 

James Worthy is always forever evolving, but the right inspirations make the best come out of me. Experience is what made me the man I am today. 

How do you feel about where you are right now in your life?

I feel blessed and excited for what’s next to come. Throughout the years I’ve put in so much work to where I am finally starting to see the payoff showing itself. Of course, there are always things to accomplish, but I’m pleased with my success thus far. 

What do you bring to this industry that sets you apart from the masses? 

I understand what it means to be a true creative. Including artistry, music production, songwriting, entertainment, label ownership, acting, entrepreneurship, and etc. There is nothing that I cannot do. 

Name one word to describe your sound.

UNIQUE

Well, ladies and gents there you have it. Not only is James Worthy bringing on new artists, signing label deals and also dropping new music, but for all the curious minds, he is single so that should answer the thoughts roaming around in Your Heart.
