.Raphael Saadiq.

Rhythm and Blues are the foundations for true Afro-American music. Soul music unites those rhythms and those blues with words filled with love, passion, and revolution. The voices of soul are pregnant with years of oppression and suffering yet there is optimism within every voice. Optimism for a better tomorrow and a brighter today. Raphael Saadiq is true neo-soul. His music is Marvin Gaye meets Stevie Wonder meets The Funk Brothers, all rolled into an infectious rhythm that will leave a smile on anyone's face. This young man is true music.

His first single.
