James K-Nine has been played on NTS shows including Carolina Soul, with Live It Up first played on 20 September 2024.

The interestingly named James K-Nine was thought to be a pseudonym for the prolific New Orleans artist Eddie Bo, given that he is the artist on the highly sought after “Live It Up”. However Larry Grogan has recently confirmed that James was a real singer. The terminally obscure label on which this cut originally appeared, Hot Hit, was one of the large numbers that Eddie Bo was involved in one way or another.
