Antoine Knight does this big time with an exciting mix of old school in the pocket soul/funk, sensuous romantic expressions and colorful jazz improvisations. His music proves that he’s comfortable in both traditional and smooth jazz worlds, and can slide over effortlessly between gospel and jazz. But, on the other hand, there’s no need to pigeonhole him into any genre. He can clearly do it all!” - Jonathan Widran!!
