      Now, I'm feeling as though we were cheated in Chicago. Gotta admit I've seen this dude four times: the Capital Jazz Fest in Maryland; Chicago three times- he opened for Lenny Kravitz, at the Vic Theatre, and at some festival (went solo). His musicians are awesome! I'd go again tomorrow too.

    I was today years old when I found out this man wrote “Kissing You” for Total and it TOTALLY MAKES SENSE! 👀🤣 I have loved that song since the very first time I heard it. I’ve had it on damn near every playlist I’ve created since then. I have loved everything this man had created since I was 12 years old so yeah, I totally get it, no pun intended. 😍
    Edit: Didn’t know he wrote MOST of these song “Soul Sister”? “Cranes”? “ Love of my Life”?😳 I can hear him all over these songs now but I love how each artist was able to make each song their own 🥰 I’m so proud he is from Cali like me 😍

  • @rachelphillips7909
    @rachelphillips7909 11 місяців тому +7

    I had no idea he wrote all of these songs either. When he mentions “Fantasy” by Earth, Wind and Fire”?! That was my push song when I gave birth to my daughter.
    This man is PURE GOLD. His voice, his groove. His soul. His charisma is off the charts!

    My homeboy has been great at what he does (MUSIC) since we were kids in Oakland, Ca. Loyalty will get you a front spot with fans; Raphael has been a perfectionist since when I first met him; I had a tie on, and he straightened it for me, not because he had to; he pays attention to detail, outstanding performance, I would like to see him and his brother Dwayne back on stage!

    What a phenomonel concert! He did his thing both vocally and musically, really illustrating his prowess on the guitar! So surprised by this because I don't live that far from Brooklyn but knew nothing of this concert and Raphael Saadiq is my favorite artist of today! In addition to his own solo hits, he gives you a taste of the things he collaborated on with Lucy Pearl, Q-Tip, Total, Erekah Badu, Bilal, Solange Knowles and, of course, Tony! Toni! Tone! The Track listing is as follows:
    00:01 Ask of You
    04:51 Dance Tonite
    07:38 Get Involved
    10:30 Kissin’ You
    14:00 Love of My Life (An Ode To Hip Hop)
    15:10 Soul Sista
    16:23 “(I Tried To Take It) Away”
    [not sure of the title]
    18:30 “Let’s Get Down”
    20:16 “Feels Good” (instrumental Prelude)
    22:14 “Feels Good”
    26:52 “ Still Ray”

    When Raphael hit the cord for How Does It Feel.
    The person in the front turned around and said “ I did not know he wrote this “🤣😂
    Dude is so super talented but yet so humble. Unless you’re a true Raphael fan then you had no clue he wrote and produced any of these hits. Solonage said in the interview he had that beat sitting around for eight years, she heard it and asked him could she have it.

    So much of his style got that west coast feel like Sly Stone where he breaks it down and goes a completely 180 to another direction.. Keeps you off balance and suspect to what’s going to happening next.. A little of Curtis Mayfield and small pinch of the Brother Johnson ..Yeah he smooth ..and there it goes playing a different melody .. LB June 2022
