East London singer/songwriter Jvck James specializes in overhauling R&B from the past. By transforming others’ work into his own, the artist introduces listeners to lyrics and vibes that may otherwise have faded into the background. Jvck James’ vulnerable vocals lend themselves to contemporary and throwback production alike. Those approaches combine in the heady 2018 single “Wave,” while the churning soundscape of 2021’s “No Drama” feels like an indirect homage to ‘90s R&B. But with “Come Over (Cover),” also from 2021, Jvck James makes his influences clear, drawing a direct line to the late pop&B singer Aaliyah.
