THE R&B HIPPIE NEO SOUL ROCK STAR RAHEEM DEVAUGHN IS BACK! A gifted storyteller, DeVaughn is a young man with volumes of short stories that found their way onto his critically-acclaimed debut album, The Love Experience which has sold 1/4 million albums to date just off of word-of-mouth and touring alone. Even more stories fill the follow-up album, Love Behind The Melody, featuring musical contributions by such production heavyweights as Scott Storch (Chris Brown, Beyonce, Dr. Dre), Bryan Michael Cox (Usher, Chris Brown, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige), Mark Batson (Jay-Z, Dr.

Dre & Alicia Keys), Carvin & Ivan (Musiq Soulchild, Jill Scott, Faith Evans), Kwame (Tweet, Lloyd Banks), Jack Splash (Alicia Keys) and Chucky Thompson (Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige and Faith Evans) as well as featured appearances by Big Boi of OutKast and Floetry. Forget about just placing Raheem DeVaughn in the neo-soul category though.

Raheem Devaughn Love Behind The Melody Rare Song

The

His voice, velvety, chalky, pristine and gut-wrenching borrows heavily from generations before him. From the hypnotic and soulful and armed with an amazing falsetto, Raheem vacillates between love songs with urgency and socially conscious songs that show love for all people.

On Love Behind The Melody Raheem bridges the gap between an older generation of R&B masters and their all too few modern counterparts. He is obviously a student of the genre who has thoroughly studied his forefathers - a true soul man and real deal live performer in a microwave music era that some have dubbed the ‘hip hop Marvin Gaye.’ So take a ‘look behind the melody’ - drink in the seven amazing cuts from Love Behind The Melody on the CD sampler given to you espe- cially in advance of the album’s release next year on 1.15.08. Then play the DVD to learn more about the new album from Raheem him- self in an exclusive EPK; watch the sexy, cool video for the first single, “Woman,” and then get a brief taste of why Raheem’s live shows have become the buzz of industry by watching a clip of him performing “Woman” live in Atlanta earlier this year. And like Raheem always says at his shows, “Tell a friend to tell a friend” because the Love Experience that Raheem brings to his music and his shows is to be shared with everyone you know. E very year the critics are ready to proclaim the death of soul music. Moaning to one another about the days when Curtis Mayfield, Barry White and Marvin Gaye once walked the earth like musical giants, sometimes they sleep when something fresh does come along. Having perfected his craft as a young artist by releasing numerous mixtapes and performing throughout his hometown of Washington, D.C., Raheem was determined from the beginning to be the best.

Melody

Introduced to an wider audience in 2005 with the release of his debut disc The Love Experience, singer Raheem DeVaughn has always strived create the perfect hybrid of old school grooves and new school attitude. “When I hit the stage, it’s all about that passion for the music,” Raheem says.

“When I’m in the studio, it’s about combining that same passion with recording timeless songs.” With the release of his sophomore project Love Behind The Melody, it is obvious that Raheem DeVaughn is steadily moving towards his goal of becoming an eternal soul man for the new millennium. “I’m always working, so when the label said they were ready for a new album, I already had 30 songs prepared.” Though a few of Raheem’s completed tracks were chosen, it was decided that he would be put in the lab with a roster of A-list producers that includes Mark Batson, Chucky Thompson, Bryan Cox and Scott Storch. “I know I’m one of the most slept on artists out right now. Not that I mind being the underdog, but hopefully Love Behind The Melody will change all of that.” Showing steady growth from his debut project, the first single is the Chucky Thompson produced “Woman.” With its laidback groove and vocal charm, this is one of the better ballads of 2007. Thompson’s streak of producing top-selling hits began around 1994 when he produced “One More Chance” for the late Notorious B.I.G. As well as the Grammy-nominated album My Life for Mary J. “I knew from the moment I stepped into the studio with Chucky, I was going to get exactly what I needed,” says Raheem.

“At the end of the day, it’s all about good music, and that is what Chucky brought to the project.” Joining forces once again with friend and producer Kenny Dope, who worked on Raheem’s debut disc, the two joined forces on “Marathon” and “Desire” Smiling, Raheem says, “Kenny is like my brother, so it’s always special when we get to work together.” Newcomer Jack Splash (Alicia Keys) also brings the soul on his song “Mo Better,” a heavy midnight ballad that invokes memories of driving through the deserted streets blaring the Brothers Johnson and the Floaters. “God moves when me and Jack step in the studio together,” laughs Raheem. “We were in the studio for three days and we made nine songs. Jack is straight out of Purple Rain, but he was focused on his art. To me, that is most important.” Working in a Miami studio with Scott Storch was another thrilling experience for the young singer. “We went sailing on his yacht for a few hours, and all we talked about was music,” Raheem remembers.

Having once worked closely with Dr. Dre, as well as producing tracks for Beyonce (“Baby Boy”) and Chris Brown (“Exclusive”), Storch knows how to make a hit record. “I played him some of my stuff, and we just wilded out on a vibe.” The result was the midtempo bop of “Energy,” which features stellar guest spot from superstar rapper Big Boi.
