6x Grammy nominated, and 4x Grammy award winning James Fauntleroy is a big deal! He’s a singer, record producer, and songwriter. You might’ve heard his therapeutic voice on Drake’s “Girls love Beyoncé,” but he’s also wrote, co-wrote, and produced many tracks for some of our favorite R & B artists in the music industry. Popular artists he’s worked with include: Rihanna, Brandy, Justin Timberlake, Chris Brown, Common, and Bruno Mars. But wait, he is also the lead singer of the collective hip hop group ‘Cocaine 80s’ with producer NO I.D., where they released 4 projects together. Born and raised in Inglewood, California, he started singing when he became ill; due to not being able to use his hands. Overtime singing began to Segway into writing, leading Fauntleroy to become one of the most influential artist in the world creating his own style. Once you get familiar with his work, you’ll become a fan like myself. His voice is soft & sweet, and he’s respected in the game wether he’s using his pen or his sultry voice. Truly one of one.
