The soulful ballad reflects on early, humble holiday memories\u2014reminiscing about a small tree beside the door and dancing in the kitchen\u2014while firmly establishing his partner as the true anchor of the season.<\/p>\n<p>The record also captures a deeply personal family milestone, featuring a sweet vocal exchange between Wilson and his 4-year-old granddaughter, Phebe Paran.<\/p>\n<p>The seasonal release continues a highly successful era for the veteran artist, who has successfully transitioned his foundational R&amp;B legacy into modern dominance. Wilson currently holds 11 No. 1 singles on Billboard\u2019s Adult R&amp;B Airplay chart, with five of those hits secured in this decade alone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChristmas Is You\u201d is available to stream and download now across all major digital platforms.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/youknowigotsoul.com\/charlie-wilson-kicks-off-the-holiday-season-with-his-first-original-christmas-song-christmas-is-you\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary R&amp;B vocalist and former Gap Band frontman Charlie Wilson has officially entered the holiday music landscape with the release of his brand-new single,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":76624,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-rb","article","has-excerpt","has-avatar","has-author","has-date","has-comment-count","has-category-meta","has-read-more","thumbnail-"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76623\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76624"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
