JAWN’S JUICE # 42 – VOL. ll / FEBRUARY 11, 2004 (Late Edition): Pharrell Williams, Jamie Foxx, Ananda Lewis,
by Mr. Jawn Murray (Washington, D.C.)
No Laughing Matter: My Hollywood moles tell me that it was Jamie Foxx who was one of the showstoppers at Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy shindig. Many don’t know, but the Tinseltown funnyman has a degree in classical music, and he actually released an album in 1994 called “Peep This” on RCA Records. Jamie penned Adina Howard’s hit tune “T-Shirt and Panties” from the “Woo” soundtrack, and also appeared on the duet “I Wanna Be Loved” with Gladys Knight on her last album “At Last.” Jamie apparently auditioned for Clive Davis on last Friday and was then allowed to join Alicia Keys and Angie Stone on stage. His performance apparently blew the audience away, and word from Hollywood was that Jamie could have been singing a deal with J Records. I’ll keep you posted.

...I have this album and have been waiting for 10 years for dude to make another album. His voice, particularly on some of the ballads, is tremendous. Check his comedy DVD "I Might Need Security," he does a 20 -minute musical piece (mostly comedy still) but really displays his musical talent.
I think J.Foxx is a good comedian but an even better singer.
