Raphael Saadiq NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Loading...
Uploaded by nprmusic on Sep 28, 2009
Raphael Saadiq was nominated for his 2008 solo album The Way I See It. The album featured an eclectic group of collaborators, such as Joss Stone, Stevie Wonder and Jay-Z.
For his Tiny Desk Concert, Saadiq brought a remarkable accompanist in guitarist Rob Bacon. The two had just gotten off a plane, but in their impeccably tailored suits and their grand smiles, they looked fresh and played an inspired acoustic performance. As you watch, keep an eye on Saadiq's guitar work: You'll see how his years as a bassist influences many of his licks on his Taylor acoustic.
Saadiq played:
"Love That Girl"
"100 Yard Dash"
"Sure Hope You Mean It"

Black dont crack and you all know that
So stop with that fake shock routine
All the people who look old eat pork smoke Newports drink and have
bad relationships and bad kids and lost of stress in their lives but feel
they need all that shit. You avoid those things and exercise you will
stay young and vibrant also.
