Mary Anne has a 3 Minute Epiphany from legendary songwriter and producer, Raphael Saadiq. An R&B polymath, Raphael has written for and produced some of the biggest names in music. Beginning his career in the group Tony! Toni! Tone!, Raphael toured with Prince, before becoming the go to guy for that original old school R&B sound.

For years he has flown under the radar, preferring to work behind the scenes, lending his immeasurable skills to production, songwriting and arranging. He's also worked extensively across film and TV scores and of course proudly held the role of executive producer on Solange's incredible album 'A Seat At The Table'.

Now, 8 years since his last solo album, Raphael has returned with an incredibly personal record, which explores drug addiction within his own family and the wider problem with addiction, loss and trauma experienced across the world.
