The GFM Fam rides with Donell Jones so you know we had to post the latest!

Gerald Levert, Sheri Riley and Usher

When we celebrate the great contributions of music artists, we always like to give a narrative picture from those who knew them well. In our tribute of the late, great Gerald Levert, we brought a dear friend of the Grown Folks Music family, Mrs. Sheri Riley. For those not familiar with Sheri’s name, you definitely know her work. She is the founder and president of the successful entertainment consulting company, Glue, Inc., former marketing executive with Atlantic and LaFace Records and the marketing hand behind artists like TLC, Donell Jones, Usher, Toni Braxton, OutKast and of course Mr. Gerald Levert. From her story, we hope you will thoroughly enjoy this interview and gain more insight into this R&B legend. Also, catch some of Sheri’s exclusive pics with Gerald, Sean and Eddie Levert, Isaac Hayes, Phyllis Hyman, Don Cornelius and many more!

Get your week started off right with Vol.2 of the Millenium Mix series. It’s an uptempo mix with a party vibe. Hope you enjoy it — hit the jump for the track list!

Powerful video for a powerful song. With this joint, Donell is giving us much of what’s been missing in R&B today: substance. This is from his latest release, The Lost Files [Explicit], also available on iTunes.

As we posted earlier, Donell Jones is back with his new album, The Lost Files and it is now available on Amazon. The album is a collection of previously unreleased material from some of his earlier projects. It’s classic Donell and the perfect primer for his new album dropping at the top of next year.

Check out the preview after the jump, enjoy the interview and cop the album or two or three. It makes a great stocking stuffer for the music lover in your life.
