If you're new to Raheem DeVaughn but have caught wind that he calls himself an R&B-hippie-neosoul-rock star, you've got a right to be skeptical. It's hard enough to hold down an advanced degree of R&B cred these days without ratcheting up the pressure by insisting on being a hippie and a rock star, too. And despite the best efforts of Jill Scott and Angie Stone, neo-soul seems to have sputtered out somewhere among the back rooms of Maxwell's '90s-era urban hang suite. But DeVaughn's sophomore disc will hang your skepticism by its ankles and make it squirm. The D.C. singer and contemporary of Erykah Badu and Common is a gifted guy who knows how to work a lyric and never met a melody he couldn't set swiftly into motion. The best evidence comes by way of the radio-ready "Woman," a sweet-natured thumper as relatable as a crooked smile, but it's backed by pop-scraping tracks including the Gnarls Barkley-like "Energy," featuring Outkast's Big Boi, and the daydreamy and fully irresistible "Butterflies." DeVaughan simultaneously sounds like every soul singer who has raised bumps on your arms and none of them at all, which is to say he's an artist no matter what banner he flies. His mission is to move you, not just fill the space around the speakers. And in song after song here, he makes it happen. --Tammy La Gorce

Summary: Raheem DeVaughn @ Second Time Around !
Comment: I was introduced to Raheem DeVaughn when I heard the song "Guess Who Loves You More". Beautiful Song that became one of my favorites in the year 2004.I finally heard another track "Believe", which was a nice slow jam and Seductive you would Feel as if he wrote the song for you and finally in 2005 we were blessed with Raheem DeVaughn debut CD entitled The Love Experience. Since, he had personal experiences to be able to relate to, he had a better understanding of what love was. My other favorite tracks ended up being "Ask Yourself". This CD remained the Best Cd i Was recomended by Amazon.com !

Summary: Refreshing
Comment: Good but not as good as hearing him live at the Macy's Festival in Cinti, OH. Plus, it helped that my sister and I got to see him up close when he was taking snapshots with other concertgoers. He's a cutie! Oh, and his music isn't bad either.
