Synopsis

Album Description

Raheem DeVaughn is back with his third album The Love & War MasterPeace. On the heels of his 2008 Grammy nominated release The Love Behind The Melody, The Love & War MasterPeace is a tale of two tales though love and war. The lead single "Bulletproof" featuring Ludacris takes us on a journey through today's social and political issues reminiscent of Marvin Gaye's What's Going On, while the Ne-Yo produced "I Don't Care" touches on the importance of a strong relationship. With Raheem's distinctive style and exceptional production, The Love & War MasterPeace is sure to satisfy his fans while making room for newcomers. The Love & War MasterPeace solidifies Raheem DeVaughn as true vocalist and an infectious songwriter, recording music to stand the test of times.

CD Reviews

Classic Music in the Mold of Marvin Gaye

Andre Dixon | Maryland | 03/04/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Raheem expresses his own creative vibe on the CD and I am feeling it! He does well mixing the fast and slows and also the song writing is very well done (an art that people dont take into consideration anymore)Its a breath of fresh air from the norm and top 100. From bulletproof the lead single his goal was to go more Marvin gaye with this cd IMO. Sensual riffs and haunting backgrounds on the ballads make this cd a special one get the deluxe version and treat yourself to something different but well done."

On Point!

"I've been blasting this CD since I got it! Everything from the Intros & Interludes by Dr. Cornel West to the nature and lyrics of each song flows! There isn't 1 track on this CD that I don't like/skip over. Raheem has blended his "sexy" lyrics with "in your face this is what's going on in the world" lyrics, and it's a winning formula! The collaborations aren't heavy and overbearing which is always a plus for me. When I buy a CD for an artist, I like to hear how that artist has grown from 1 CD to the next and often times if a CD is drowned in collaborations it leaves the listener (at least for me) wondering if the artist is trying to make up for where they are lacking but in Raheem's case, all his collaborations enhances the song. My favorite songs are B.O.B, Microphone, Garden of Love, Wing & A Prayer, Super Hero, Hopeless Romantic and Nobody Wins A War (which puts me in the mindset of Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On"). Jill Scott does a spoken word piece to close out the song, talk about profound and thought provoking!!! Raheem is definitely at the top of the game right now and I'm loving every minute of it!"

Best. Damn. CD. THIS YEAR!

"MASTERPEACE is an absolutely appropriate title, without the play on words. Not only does Raheem display diversity in his song choices as well as the accompanying music but he skillfully interweaves none other than the great Cornell West between the tracks DROPPING SCIENCE ABOUT LOVE!!!

HOW FLY IS THAT?

I have never slept on Raheem Devaughn, and with every CD you can absolutely hear the growth in his musical development. Additionally his upliftment of women (especially his momma) is very inspiring. This brotha really really sangs about love. Without going into great detail about every song, however I will say this, EVERY TRACK IS FIRE. At times R and B lyrics leave a lot to be desired so reliance upon a hot beat seems to be the focal point. Not so with this CD set because it combines them both. The war song with Raheem et. al. is absolutely POWERFUL and Jill Scott's monologue is the perfect addition. This CD has been on constant rotation since I've purchased it and everytime I listen to it, I can really feel the underlying theme of love. I believe the spirit of Marvin Gaye was in the studio giving his blessings when this CD was recorded. It is truly a MASTER PEACE without the play on words!"
