Curated with Love, Soul, and R&B- All Star Records’ Influential Force Jime Jame Hockaday Presents New Single

Crafted in unique Stair Step style, “I Want to Know You & Love You (Forever)” highlights a nostalgic, old-school appeal, which is rare to find otherwise

. Las Vegas/ Hollywood/Washington D.C., California/ Nevada —April 6th, 2023 – Jime James Hockaday is a promising star in a distinctive musical arena. The Soul and R&B artist has curated his own musical ethos, which continues to shine through with the release of his new single, “I Want to Know You & Love You (Forever).” A magical, exciting, and stirring experience for audiences, the new single showcases the artist’s wide-ranging talents and positions him in the Stair Steps and Delfonics world as an artist who is unrivalled.

The new single released on the artist’s official music platforms on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, YouTube, and marks the latest foray by the All-Star Records front man.

Laying forth the splendid return of Hockaday’s Stair Step Band, “I Want to Know You & Love You (Forever)” is a single which stands out in its smooth, dulcet vocals and a charming, melodic delivery. Set to drop for audiences on April 6th, 2023, the soul-stirring single was inspired by the former Lead Singer of The Delfonics – William (Poogie) Hart and former singer of The 5-Stair Steps, alongside Clerence Burke.

Hockaday notes how his music is a culmination of influences from the legendary and inspirational Burke and Hart, ‘coming in Spirit in the recording studio and coming to a guy who normally only plays bass music.’

“I was mainly inspired by these two icons who have passed away, Poogie, known as the Godfather of Fascetto and Clerence Burke of Stair Step, known as The Crooner,” says the artist of his motivations and artists who inspired him.
