1) Jesse Powell ( born in Gary, Indiana, on 12 September 1971; died 13 September 2022) was an American R&B and soul singer-songwriter remembered for his hit "You".
2) Jesse Powell (born in Fort Worth, Texas, on 27 February 1924; died 19 October 1982) was an American jazz and rhythm and blues saxophonist.
1) Jesse Powell ( born in Gary, Indiana, on 12 September 1971; died 13 September 2022) was an American R&B and soul singer-songwriter. Remembered for his hit "You" which peaked at No. 2 US R&B and No. 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100, Powell released four albums, and was the older brother of fellow contemporary R&B singers Trina & Tamara. Powell was credited with a four octave vocal range. He was a Grammy nominee.
His first single "All I Need" was written by Powell, Sam Salter and Laney Stewart and was released in March 1996. It received moderate airplay on BET and Urban stations, peaking at No. 32 on the US Billboard R&B chart. His self-titled album was released on March 12, 1996, opening at No. 35 on the US Billboard R&B and No. 32 on US Heatseekers charts. A second single, a remake of the classic "Gloria" followed later that year and garnered Powell another charting single (No. 51 R&B).
Powell then began work on his second album, debuting the lead single "I Wasn't with It" in 1998 which became his first single to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 (No. 85 US, No. 25 R&B). Bolstered by the success of the single, his sophomore album 'Bout It was released on September 8, 1998, opening at No. 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart (for artists who have yet to crack the Top 100 on the Billboard 200).
Following Silas Records merge into MCA Records, Powell's first release on the label was the single "If I" in 2000, which peaked at No. 58 on the R&B chart. His third studio album JP was released on March 27, 2001, opening at No. 18 R&B and No. 71 on Billboard 200. A second single, "Something in the Past" (No. 67 R&B) followed, in addition to Powell doing some promotion for the release. In 2002, he left the label and signed with Riviera Records. His fourth studio album Jesse was released on October 14, 2003 and was supported by the singles "By the Way" (No. 99 R&B) and "Touching It Tonight", peaking at No. 85 on the Billboard R&B chart. The album served as his last release before his retirement from the music industry.
2) Jesse Powell (born in Fort Worth, Texas, on 27 February 1924; died 19 October 1982) was an American jazz and rhythm and blues saxophonist.
Powell studied music at Hampton University, where he became inspired by Count Basie’s Lester Young and Herschel Evans, and played his tenor saxophone with the bands of Oran ‘Hot Lips’ Page (1942-43), Louis Armstrong (1943-44), and Luis Russell (1944-45). In 1946 he accepted an offer from Count Basie to replace Illinois Jacquet in the reed section. After briefly leading his own band in 1948 and being featured at that year’s Paris Jazz Festival, he joined Dizzy Gillespie’s Orchestra (1949-50), but the R&B era found him with copious session work and, again, his own unit, which recorded for Federal (the infamous ‘Walkin’ Blues’ sung by Fluffy Hunter) and Jubilee.
In a November 1951 session for Federal, he backed Fluffy Hunter on the notorious “The Walking Blues” and “My Natch’l Man.” In October 1953 he had a second session for Federal, recording four good R&B numbers – “Love To Spare” / “Rear Bumper” (Federal 12159) and “Leaving Tonight” / “Hot Box” (Federal 12171). These four tracks were featured on the old Westside CD “Groove Station” which utilized the artwork from “Blow Man Blow” on its back cover.
Powell continued his R&B career through the 1950s with sessions for Josie and Jubilee, mainly as an arranger and session man on vocal group sessions, particularly with The Cadillacs. He released three solo singles on Josie – “Moonlight In Vermont” / “Riggin’” (Josie 782), “Can’t Help Myself, Parts 1 and 2” (Josie 799) and “Turnpike” / “Ain’t You Gonna” (Josie 834).
The session at which Josie 782 was recorded also brought forth a couple of novelty numbers by Jesse – “The Head Hunters” and “Scotch On The Rocks”, the latter with bagpipe accompaniment. These two sides were released as by The Goofers on Port 7006.
The Josie and Port tracks featured on the Sequel CDs “Jumping At Jubilee” and “Saxophony!” and also on the Westside CD “Titanic And 23 Other Unsinkable Sax Blasters.”
After recording “Blow Man Blow” Jesse had two more LPs released in the early 1960s – “It’s Party Time” on Tru-Sound and “A Taste Of Honey” on Kapp. Powell died in New York in October 1982.

Jesse is so underrated. He's a great singer and a nice guy. I was fortunate enough to meet him while in the Memphis Airport many years ago. He took time out of his day to talk to my friend and me. Needless to say we were big fans then and are now!
@LeMelleKH2
Omg lucky! I wanna meet him someday! His music really got me through college these past few years. That's such a cool story!
