R&B/Soul: Jesse Boykins III – “Wonder Years” (Prod. By ThroughWhose) [Video]
May 28, 2015
“Love Apparatus” is out now. This single off it, “Wonder Years,” wouldn’t need anything to really put it over as solid R&B. However, this video concept… a wonderful touch. “Wonder Years” – already makes you think about the TV show and gets you thinking about bank-in-the-day; perhaps about what was and could’ve been, right? And that’s just the title! Click play and listen; and enjoy the vids and stills combined and blurred purposely at times to add further to the nostalgia effect of it all. Linked the album below, too.
