Who likes Leela James

She is a soul singer who wants to bring back the music to what it was. She sang the song called Music and her My Joy. What do you think of her.

She has such a very soulful voice. She reminds me of Tina Turner a lot.

I bought the CD because I loved her performance on Soul Train. But I can't say I thoroughly enjoyed the album. I haven't listened to it in ages. I think it was a bit too hippity hoppity for my taste. I was expecting more. But she has promise. Wasn't she dropped from Warner Bros. a while ago?

I love her!!!!!

I know some purists will be pissed at this comment but the house version of MY JOY is HUGE!!!!! It has to be the song of the year.

She really is amazing. I've been listening to her, Donnie, and Elliott Yamin. Great voices.

Dude, I totally slept on the Jazz fest & only popped up there b/c a friend asked me to go with her. Was flipping through the program & saw that she was to perform the next day (Sunday), I was pissed when I couldn't come back out to see her mad

Doh!!! We totally have to keep up with these things. It's amazing how many great artists there are out there but these days, to be famous, you have to not be able to sing and be in a whole heap o' trouble.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
