Cullum's virtues are a remarkable relaxation (which makes music-making, even in a sophisticated studio recording, sound like fun to him), a youthful bounce that makes his work engagingly airy and light, and a hipness of timing that marks him out from many of his competitors on this crowded stage. Twentysomething is also very shrewdly produced (by George Benson and BB King producer Stewart Levine) to keep the more luxurious of additional instruments (strings, flutes, horn ensembles) in a subtly supportive role that always leaves Cullum's forthright, unadorned and already characterful voice way out in front.Jamie Cullum (born 20 August 1979) [1] is an English jazz-pop singer, songwriter and radio presenter. Although primarily a vocalist and pianist, he also accompanies himself on other instruments, including guitar and drums. He has recorded nine studio albums, three compilation albums, one live album and twenty-four singles. Since April 2010, he has presented a weekly Tuesday evening jazz show on BBC Radio 2.

Retrieved 15 February 2016. I am a largely self taught musician, but during COVID, I started studying music properly with a university professor and have been hugely inspired by that. Seeing how things I developed instinctively actually fit together is mind blowing. I’m inspired by going into things as deeply as possible – songs, books, great movies, lyrics, poetry, chord sequences, bebop solos – the deeper you go the more interesting things seems to get. Further to what I said before I’d also like to say that it really keeps me inspired and humbled. It’s a little like scheduling in proper listening. It’s so easy to do things like listening, in a scattered way, especially now some of the music streaming services are actively trying to be more like TikTok. It goes against how I feel about listening to music which is: if the music is good, you will be rewarded by deeper listening. By doing that dive, listening every week, preparing a playlist of old and new and then presenting it on the radio, you’re constantly aware of what’s out there and how good music can be. As a songwriter and performer myself it’s a reminder of how hard you have to work and where the bar is. It keeps things fresh and exciting. Also, I love that the jazz show is on Radio 2. Often you capture an audience with really unusual and challenging music that aren’t necessarily seeking that experience like perhaps a 6 music listener would be. It’s a harder job, but I find it really rewarding. Gold-/Platin-Datenbank (Jamie Cullum; 'Twentysomething ')" (in German). Bundesverband Musikindustrie . Retrieved 24 August 2021.

In an interview with NBHAP, Cullum said that "Momentum" is about the crossover period from being a young man while having one foot in the adult world, and about the balance of childish fantasies with grand and epic responsibilities.

In July 2020 Cullum released the single "Don't Give Up on Me" on the Island Records label.

Well ideally, you want both collaborators to end up being an even more interesting proposition than they would be alone, or at least a different, equal proposition! That’s speaking as a listener. As a creator, I was always look to learn as much as possible from someone else’s process and come away with something I couldn’t have created otherwise.years ago, the fastest selling jazz album in UK chart history was released. The sophomore album from critically-adored singer-songwriter Jamie Cullum, Twentysomething soared to the status of one of the most celebrated albums of the year, Brit and Grammy nominated. Jamie Cullum’s multi-million selling 2003 album Twentysomething will be available on vinyl for the first time on October 20 via Decca and Universal Music. The new edition will arrive on the exact 20th anniversary of the record’s original appearance. Cullum's Jewish father, whose mother had managed to flee Nazi Germany, was born in Jerusalem. His mother, whose father was Indian and mother Burmese, was born in Burma; when the Japanese invaded, the family left Burma and moved to Wales, when his mother was age five. [3] In 2011, a portrait of Cullum, painted by British artist Joe Simpson, was exhibited around the UK, including a solo exhibition at the Royal Albert Hall. [39] Well – 20 years and Twenty in title! Also, perhaps a little known fact about the album is that it was recorded live directly to reel to reel tape. There were some overdubs, but really it’s an album where there was no computer involved, no editing between takes. It feels right that it’s finally being released on my preferred format and staying in the analogue domain where it was born. Finally, and I can say this now far more comfortably, it was an album that connected with a mainstream audience that had no desire than to be anything other than itself. It went against what was happening everywhere else. At the time there wasn’t anything quite like it for better or for worse. Whilst I feel I’ve improved as a musician and songwriter since then, you cannot fake that momentum of youth, that cloud of unknowing of what’s to come that rings through an album like this. I’m proud of it!
