"Slow Jams" is a song by American musician Quincy Jones, taken from his studio album Q's Jook Joint (1995).

A remix version, released in 1996 as the album's second single, replaced the latter's vocals with Tamia. A commercial success, it peaked at number 2 on the New Zealand Singles Chart and reached the top 20 on Billboard's Hot R&B Songs chart.
