00:00The thing that makes me stand out the most as an artist is everything.
00:15Everything about me is original. It's myself, my style is me, my voice is me, my concepts, my ideals, everything.
00:26Before I got into the music industry, I wish someone would have told me that there's definitely levels to this.
00:35Just because you've been doing it for five years doesn't mean that you're going to be exactly where you want to be.
00:40Smoke is all kinds of sexy. It's a melting pot of different feelings and sounds from rock to country to R&B to soul.
00:49Just experimenting with R&B.
00:52I named my new EP Smoke because I feel like where we see smoke, you know that there's fire.
01:01Before I became an artist, I was an artist. I feel like my whole life I've been preparing to be myself, where I am right now in my life.
01:10Three of my songs that best illustrate my sound are Permission, Pledge of Allegiance and I'll say Adidas.
01:19One thing you should remember about Ro James is that, if I can narrow it down, one thing you can remember forever about Ro James is that he's real.
01:28If you miss out on my 2018 Essence performance, you'll be missing out on a lot of sexy, on a lot of rock and roll, a lot of good music, on a lot of soul, a lot of smoke.
01:43Oh yeah.
01:44Oh yeah.
