Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis to Release ‘Jam & Lewis, Volume One’ in July

Their names are synonymous with success. In fact, an amazing catalog of hit records has already made them the most successful production duo in contemporary music history.

Longtime friends Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis have created a body of work that has assured them a premier place in the pop culture of the ‘80s, ‘90s, and beyond.

The statistics are mind-boggling: millions of sales on over 100 albums that have exceeded gold, platinum and multi-platinum status, an incredible 16 Billboard Hot 100 #1 Hits and 26 #1 R&B chart toppers, multiple Grammy® Awards, and numerous other accolades and honors. The musical diversity and depth of the pair’s work is equally astonishing.

Not just content with breaking records with projects by superstar acts such as Janet Jackson, Boyz II Men, Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson, TLC, Mary J. Blige, Patti LaBelle, and others, Jam & Lewis started the new millennium with multi-million dollar sales— and two #1 hits—for Japan’s best-selling female artist, Hikaru Utada.

The complete tracklist for “Jam & Lewis, Volume One” will be announced on June 10th, along with the release of the new single, “Somewhat Loved (There You Go Breakin’ My Heart)” featuring Mariah Carey.

Jam and Lewis stated; “When we started Jam & Lewis: Volume 1, we put a wish-list together of all our favorite artists. The chance to reunite with our friend and fellow Songwriters Hall of Fame partner Mariah was wish list fulfillment at its finest.”
