BYT: Raphael Saadiq


Last Summer, my friend Esther and I hopped a bus to NYC to check out a free Raphael Saadiq concert in Central Park. Almost a year later, he stops into DC to play the 9:30 club and we both make our way to see him yet again; this time, with her twin sister Ruth in tow. Opening for him were Yuna (a singer/songwriter from Malaysia) and Quadron (an Emo-Soul duo from Denmark). I've since downloaded material from both openers, as they were just that good — but this is about Raphael. Here's my review of the sold out show this past Wednesday; as always comments are both welcomed and encouraged — just click the pic for the article.
