KING James is no doubt one of the hottest R&B singers in the country. And his latest release, Pala Pala, suggests that the self-styled king is here to stay. Listening to the song, you realize that James’ vocal dexterity is a notch higher.Lyrically, King James also exudes maturity. In the song, the 2012 Primus Guma Guma winner advises couples not to listen to rumours or live their lives based on what others say. The lesson for the listener here is that trust is not just an emotional luxury but a necessity for survival. The production of the song is credited to renowned producer Pastor P and, according to King James, Pala Pala was mastered from France. This song is currently in heavy rotation on most local radio stations, making King James – once again – a serious contender as we head to 2013.
