Bet you didn’t know Ro James was influenced to take his love for singing seriously by one of Prince’s backup singers. Yeah, his aunt Rosie Gaines, heard her German-born nephew signing around the house when he moved to Queens, NY as a kid and realized he had something.

By the time James, whose full name is Ronnie James Tucker, turned 19 he had studied Prince’s Purple Rain and began songwriting. His first placement was “Use Me” by Miguel, whom many also compare to Prince.

Seems like you’re ready for “Excuse Me” by Ro James below.
