Darius James Releases #NewVideo for ‘By My Side’ Ahead of ‘Life As We Know It’ EP

On June 10, rising R&B artist Darius James will release ‘Life As We Know It,’ an 8-track EP that shows an authentic view of his depiction of the crazy world we live in.

“I been going through it since a young dude and lately, things have been getting crazy,” James said. “I find myself fixating on everything they think. With this project, I wanted to be intentional about effectively expressing and executing my vision; and it finally feels like the timing is right.”

James has been performing across major cities in the south, spreading his mixed sound of classic 90’s R&B, and a new sound that’s exclusive to him as an artist. He recently grasped the attention of hit-maker and Grammy Award-Winning producer, Timbaland, with his viral remixes of today’s most popular hits.

“What makes ‘Life As We Know It’ unique and special, is that I get to showcase a multitude of my talents,” James said. “All of the songs were written and performed by me, and I co-produced some of the songs on this record. So not only do you get to hear me as an artist, but you get to experience me as an overall creative.”
