Raheem DeVaughn’s debut album was “The Love Experience;” his critically acclaimed follow-up was “Love Behind The Melody.” DeVaughn’s musical story began with his mother’s vinyl collection. “I always loved music so I would sneak into her record collection when she wasn’t around and play her stuff.” DeVaughn’s father, noted jazz musician Abdul Wadud was also an influence. DeVaughn knew at an early age that he would become an entertainer.
