feat. Joss Stone, Stevie Wonder, Jay-Z
RAPHAEL SAADIQ – THE WAY I SEE IT album is satisfying for both old school heads and today’s hip music buyers: his background as a musician, singer and songwriter is steeped in a love for R&B married with a commitment to making his own brand of expressive soul music. Born and raised in Oakland, California learned to play guitar, drums, and bass at the age of six, making the bass his preferred instrument. Singing with a professional gospel group by the time he was nine, Raphael’s musical education encompassed classical music, ‘40s spirituals, hymns, jazz and, of course, R&B. Shortly after high school, Saadiq won a chance to join Prince and Sheila E. on their 1984 ”Parade” world tour. |
