Its very rare to find an artist that can sound just like the album, cd or other various recording mediums, this Man captures the whole ambiance of all of his music even in a live event.
Yes he is gay. been out the closet for years. I think he's from here in Atlanta. Now that I got that out the way... I love you Rasshan! You have so much soul....it brings tears of joy to my eyes. I love you DEARLY.
I died when the guitar was played......there is something so special about Rahsaan when he sings live...it's amazing how he lets the music flow through him....to me that's the essence of musical expression.....
He is an example of how GREAT Vocal Skills are not accepted by the entertainment industry. As a vocalist myself, I really love their talents and wish the could break into mainstream.
Damnit....This dude is an animal on the vocals.....i wouldnt mind singing background for him, lalah, ledisi, musiq, jill, erykah, or Ndambi...true artists/soulsingers
yes indeed, true artistry at it's best! Raphael would sound good! Rah is so underratedm ppl. would rather listen to the crap on the label-controlled radio! radio needs to go somewhere, and retool. they need help! aren't they tired of the cookie cutter stuff? same hook, same auto-tune, same pop shyt! im so sick and tired of radio! radio needs to be funked!!
it would be great if Rah and Tonex, did a song together! that would be powerful, what yall think? i wonder if Prince knows anything about him, Prince says he doesn't like the male voice, that's why he sings in high falsetto. he'd love Rah's voice! think about this: Rah, Stokely, and Prince?
wow i was just saying that to some1 lastnite that tonex and rashaan should do a track 2gether also stokely from mint condition and raphael saadiq has the same tone and tenor as them/ but tonex has the craziest range out of all of them his doesnt stop but to hear them on the same track...that would be crazy
I don't know why, WHY people persist in keeping this talented soul in the background of music. I'm just thankful I have been blessed to be awake culturally to appreciate it. Thank you my Lord for giving us true soul music through him!
An amazing underrated heartfelt talent. Very few vocalist can accomplish what he can. This kind of talent should be heard on the mainstream, oh well, it's a complete shame that real artist don't get the recognition that they deserve. I've been listening to Rahsaan for the past ten years, and he gets better and better. Check out his Christmas cd as well. "The Ultimate Gift" Excellent as well. Live4Love....
yes - i think every great vocalists has that moment in their life when they come across their vocal inspirations - and then they take from them - and then make their own style - -
Sick skills!!!

lol.. It's the classic shar pei head you'll find on a lot of Black dudes.
This is different from the "pack of franks", which is the series of fat rolls on the back of a fat guy's head.
But I could care less about his sexuality, hairline or shar pei head. lol..
The man can sing with so much soulfulness and virtuosity it's not even funny.
