Two early 80s slices of disco funk, from the taleted James (Gem) Prewitt, “My Love Box” was recorded recorded in St Louis, Missouri in 1981 and “Juicy” 1983. James Prewitt, a 27-year-old attending Forrest Park Community College in St Louis, took a leap and established his own label called Keyes Production. He demonstrated his remarkable talent by writing, producing, and playing on all of his releases.
Having tasted local success with ‘My Love Box”, James decided to collaborate with Loretta Mathison, another talented individual from St. Louis. Their partnership led them to sign a two-year singing tour that took them to the Philippines and Germany. It was during their time overseas that the creative ideas for the captivating track “Musical Love” (coming soon) and ”Juicy” were born, infusing their experiences into the music and resulting in a truly captivating composition.
