    That's Derrick! He IS one of the nicest and humble human beings around. I've met him several times and actually he got me into the backstage Areas to meet the Maestro himself, Jason. I love this Band to bits. But to be honest, the old stuff is really my time and joy of them, that Acid Jazz Funk Pop was just the shit for me! I hope their next Album will be more of that style, I reaally hope so. #Jamiroquai4Ever ❤🍀🙏🏼☀👏🏼

    This is exactly the type of sound Jamiroquai needs to get back to! Otherwise I'd love an album with instrumentals like these from these three guys! Good music needs to be spontaneous and heartfelt, and this goes lost if it's overdone when you work on the same songs for months and months... And that's I guess why I really liked these three songs!
