Jon B Celebrates 30 Years of R&B With New Album ‘Waiting on You’


Jon B is celebrating — and continuing — his legacy with the March 21 release of his eighth studio album, 'Waiting on You.'

It’s what caught fans’ ears in 1995 when debut studio album Bonafide was released by Tracey Edmonds’ Yab Yum label via Epic Records division 550 Music. Jon B’s enduring catalog has since been sampled by the likes of The Weeknd (“Niagara Falls”), Drake (“Cameras / Good Ones Go Interlude”), Chris Brown featuring a posthumous appearance by Aaliyah (“Don’t Think They Know”) and Gunna and Chloe Bailey (“You & Me”). Named after the album’s newest single, the 10-city trek — with additional dates forthcoming — begins April 11 at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland and will swing through New Orleans, Dallas, Houston and Chicago, among other cities.
