Mtume was formed by James Mtume in the late 70’s.

The two guy’s wrote a lot of great stuff for the biggest artist at that time such as; Lou Rawls, Phyllis Hyman, The Spinners, Marc Sadane, Stephanie Mills, Levert, Roy Ayers and even Madonna.
The album; In search of the Rainbow Seekers is a brilliant tide produced album with great horn sections and nice vocals from the great; Tawatha Agee.
