Jef lee Johnson should be the next one. Why?Cuz he is from Philly. And Nou ra sang backing on one of his songs on the new album "The Singularity". <BR>He is wildly diverse and has the session credits to back up his musical skill. Plus he already has okayplayer session credits including thee new Common!! <P>After jef lee id say Omar. Omar is from the uk and seriously is one of Uks underrated talented musicians/vocalist. He never got any love from the USA. With a home like okayplayer I think he could build his Us fanbase. Hes been working on his 5th album for a label in France. He represents Soul/funk/jazz as much as D'angelo did. BUT nobody in america picked on it except select american critics.<P>Those are my two picks<P>PS jeflee johnson aint me its a tribute name! <BR>
