That's what I'm talkin about! the new young jazz artist of today, that shall carry on the jazz & blues traditions that our very ancestors created. Cause just for a few minutes think about it, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Sara vaughan, Miles Davies and many more who are not with us today, " I mean" they all paved the way for us, and I'm talkin about this generations and last "Now we shall teach the next gen.
Your voice is this massively dark, haunting, instrument...a muse when I sit to write...silk spider webs of feelings...cocoons spinning insanely around my crown. Your voice is my new favorite drug. I want to mainline it every second. LOL. I have to laugh at myself because, rarely do I ever respond this way to a contemporary artist of my generation anyway.
You'll never read this...so I don't mind at all putting it out there.
When I make a song like this, the thought is Fm7, Gm7, Dm7/A, but when I actually play it I'll add in diminished 5ths, 9ths, and whatever to jazz it up a bit more. So I think some chords are m7's, some are m9's, and that 3rd chord switches between Ddim/A, Dm7/A, maybe some Dm9/A, etc. throughout the song. I don't think that he plays a Dsharpened9/A though it sounds fine to add it in.

Jose James and Esperanza Spalding really need to get together and collaborate. Whatever music comes from that would be magical.

I think that D is usually Dm7
And the outro is
F#maj7 Fm7 F#maj7 Fm7.
And there, we have all the chords!

Seems that Dsharpened9/A switches to Ddim sometimes. Weird.

Crazy chords. I gather
Part A: Fm7 Gm7 Dsharpened9/A
Part B: F#maj7 Fmaj7 C#maj9
