O’s Notes: Koko Jones is a contemporary jazz, pop and R&B drummer, percussionist, singer and composer who has laid down the beats for many top acts. She is a trans woman of color and practicing Buddhist who has overcome many obstacles to resurface and bring us more great music on Who’s That Lady. Her story is an inspiring journey and her talent reins supreme delivering head shaking catchy beats that give songs more sizzle notably on songs like “Xtravaganzas”, the calypso twist on “That Lady” and “Yemaya Part II”.
