This week on We Sound Crazy, we’re joined by the powerhouse vocalist, actor, and all-around creative force Luke James. From humble beginnings to Hollywood and beyond, Luke takes us on a journey through his multidimensional career. From penning hits for music icons like Beyoncé and Chris Brown to captivating audiences on screen in shows like The Chi and Star, Luke has mastered the art of storytelling through both sound and performance. He shares how a fateful introduction to Tyrese jump-started his music journey and opened doors to the industry.  Luke reflects on the transformative experience of portraying Johnny Gill in the acclaimed New Edition Story — a role that not only deepened his artistry but reignited his passion for music, especially after working closely with the legendary Babyface.  Now, with new music on the horizon, Luke is tapping into a fresh creative chapter—one that’s as soulful and fearless as ever. And of course, he bodied our signature segment, "Take It To The Bridge," delivering a moment that had the whole room speechless.  You don’t want to miss this unforgettable episode with Luke James—an artist who continues to evolve, inspire, and take us higher.  Press Play!!
