New Info on Raphael Saadiq

LOS ANGELES (Billboard) - New Orleans may have been hosting the ninth annual Essence Festival during the July 4 weekend, but the place to be July 3 was Los Angeles' House of Blues.

Joining Raphael Saadiq during the second of three performances for the recording of his live album were Tony! Toni! Tone! (TTT) alumni D'Wayne Wiggins and Timothy Christian, D'Angelo, Joi, Skyy, DJ Quik, Ledisi, Goapele, Devin the Dude and New Birth's Leslie Wilson.

TTT's five-song mini-reunion got the joint jumping, with the capacity crowd singing along to such gems as "It Never Rains" and "Whatever You Want." Another crowd pleaser was D'Angelo's raucous rendition of his single with Saadiq, "Be Here."

Saadiq's live set is slated for an October release on his Pookie Entertainment label.

Shoot, I'm so not boxed TTT doing a live set? Last I heard Ray was beefing with one of 'em. Does that mean they settled their differences(which I hope so)?

I really don't think it was beef like everyone thought it was. I mean, think about it...D'wayne and Ray are brothers (I'm sure they can only beef for so long) and Timothy Christian Riley is not only their cousin, but he played on Ray's "Instant Vintage" so I don't think it was really that serious to begin with. wink

Brothers as in relatives? LOL Sorry I think I'm going off-topic here, does that mean D'Wayne is not muslim?

Yeah. D'wayne and Ray are blood brothers. Remember when the Tonies first came out, Raphael's last name was Wiggins, too? He changed it to Saadiq when he released "Ask Of You" from Higher Learning. I don't think that he's Muslim (even though his name is), but I could be wrong.
