Nicholas Payton - Bitches (2011)


 Nicholas Payton (born September 26, 1973) is a trumpet player from New Orleans, Louisiana. He is often considered a jazz musician, although Payton considers the label "jazz" inappropriate and refers to his music as "BAM", an acronym for Black American Music.
Bitches is a love story that musically chronicles the joys and heartbreak of relationship. A provocative and breakthrough recording on many levels, Nicholas played every instrument, composed all the songs, wrote all the lyrics, produced each track, and sings and plays trumpet throughout. He is accompanied by special guest vocalists Cassandra Wilson, Esperanza Spalding, N'Dambi, Chinah Blac and Saunders Sermons.
