Mtume: Lady Killer
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, 14 June 1983
ALTHOUGH JUICY Fruit may represent James Mtume's first taste of success as an artist, his whole career has been filled with his records because his production and songwriting credits are almost too numerous to mention. Stephanie Mills, Roberta Flack, Lou Rawls, the O'Jays, Phyllis Hyman — and now his own group, Mtume, and they look set to attain the highest pinnacle of all.
