Raheem DeVaughn - Be The One
Artist: Raheem DeVaughn
Featuring: Snoop Dogg
Producer: Mark Henry
Album: Destination Loveland
Label: 368 Music Group/Mass Appeal Ent.
Could it be true? Has it really been coming up on two years since we last heard a headlining single from Raheem Devaughn? To answer my own rhetorical question yes, Devaughn’s 2010 offering She’s Single was the last time the DMV crooner grabbed the spotlight on our pages. But what better time for a return than with a track like Be the One, just days before Valentine’s Day? (That was another rhetorical question.) Producer Mark Henry delivers and then some on the beat, crafting a lush and luxurious beat built around a string section that simply screams romance. It’s a beat backdrop Raheem was born to sing over and sure enough he lays down some silky smooth promises to the woman of his dreams: not only will be cook and clean, he’ll break out that Black Card upon request. In fact, his delivery is so convincing that he even convinces Snoop Dogg to put aside his usually pimpin ways in favor of some outright romance himself. Devaughn’s comeback (that is, if he ever really left) kicks off in earnest when his Destination Loveland EP drops, you guessed it, February 14.

Raheem needs to hire Mark Henry to produce an entire album for him. They made magic together here.

This is a nice track with a nice sound. I didn't realize it was Raheem at first, but I like this style for him. Really nice R&B track and Snoop was almost unnecessary but it was cool to hear him on this.
