Raheem DeVaughn - Love Sex Passion (2015)

Certain songs just have an uncanny ability to transport us back to memorable moments. Whether those memories are loving, painful or lustful, Raheem DeVaughn has made a career out of tapping into people s emotions by creating personal soundtracks to our love lives. For his fifth studio album, Love, Sex & Passion, the singer/songwriter wants to take listeners back to the future.

Raheem states: This album has a very 90s throwback feel to it but with a futuristic 2020 spin on it. It s a little edgy and before its time in places. But this album will probably go down in history as my most sophisticated, erotic bedroom joint. I didn t focus on what anybody else was doing versus what I just wanted to do.

What Raheem has done over the past decade is carve out a lane for himself as one of this generation s most beloved voices. The Maryland resident s catalog of sultry melodies and passionate bedroom anthems have earned him a loyal fan base as well as a host of industry accolades, including three Grammy nominations. Originally signed to Jive Records, Raheem s first three albums The Love Experience (2005), Love Behind the Melody (2008) and The Love & War MasterPeace (2010) resulted in chart-topping singles like You; Customer; and the female-empowerment anthem Woman.
Stepping out as an independent artist for his 2013 release, A Place Called Love Land, Raheem remained consistent in his artistry and the same holds true with Love, Sex & Passion.
