Raphael Saadiq (born Charlie Ray Wiggins on May 14, 1966 in Oakland, California) is an American singer, songwriter and record producer associated with the soul music movement. In September of this year, he released The Way I See It, “a truly cohesive and thoroughly enjoyable body of work that pays tribute to the golden era of iconic soul labels like Motown, Stax, and Hot Wax.” Entertainment Weekly goes on to state that his sound “is a foot-tapping, finger-snapping delight.”
