In this episode of the Halftime Chat R&B Podcast, we shine a light on a true hidden gem from the '90s: London Jones and his debut album For You, released in 1994 on Silas Records.Born in New York, London Jones made his mark as a smooth male R&B vocalist during a golden era of soul music. Though not much is widely known about him, his artistry spoke volumes. The album’s lead single "Joi" reached #70 on Billboard’s Hot R&B Singles chart and stayed there for 9 weeks—proof of his potential in a competitive scene. A follow-up single, "Save Our Love", dropped in 1995, though it didn’t chart.Beyond his solo work, London carved out a respected career behind the scenes, writing and producing for notable names such as The Braxtons, Jessica Simpson, Tamar Braxton, Rebekah, the Dre Allen Project, Kina, Tiffany, Ronnie Spector, and JC Chasez.These days, London continues to contribute to the music industry under the name Xavier Ross—a reminder that talent endures even when the spotlight fades.Join us as we break down the songs, sound, and significance of For You, and give London Jones the flowers he deserves.
