Since the release of Raheem Devaughn’s new album  “The Love & War MasterPeace” I have been inspired by “INNER PEACE” and the “LOVE inside of ME” (Dr. Cornel West).  “The Love & War MasterPeace” album has made me realize that if we don’t have INNER PEACE or LOVE within ours hearts we will be living like we are “Bulletproof”. If we live like we are “Bulletproof” it will be hard to LOVE ourselves and others. If we don’t LOVE ourselves how can we display our master pieces through our talents and gifts. People let’s keep pursuing our dreams with LOVE and RESPECT within our hearts. Remember the world is yours!

P.S. In my opinion, Raheem Devaughn is our modern day Marvin Gaye, not to mention they both are from the DMV.

Thank you Raheem Devaughn for quality music that presents the true meaning of “LOVE”, “PEACE” and “HOPE”. I encourage everyone to pick up a copy of this album at your local stores, iTunes, Amazon, etc.

It’s been over a week since Valentine’s Day has passed. Just imagine how many relationships have come and gone, how many have started and disappeared, and the frequency with which the word love has been used by many.  Beats for Lovers is the culmination of this raw emotion - whether we want to accept love or deny its power. Produced mainly by Thelonious Martin and presented by iLLVibes, Beats for Lovers is a story for all about how we deal with this feeling: as much as we try to understand and truly think we know what it means, we could never fully comprehend the exact essence of love. These emcees responded exactly as expected - in their own unique ways, with their own comprehension and understanding of love, from a story about the beauty of love and the ideal of love as a transcendental power to the very reason why someone becomes distraught and frustrated with another. There is no human nature without love - love of another, love of family, love of friends, love of an object or passion - it is as necessary as the air we breathe, and every day we are constantly reminded by its inexorable force throughout us.

With 14 tracks produced by Thelonious Martin, and one from AB the Producer and another from DJ Soundtrax, Beats for Lovers includes original songs from Greenspan, X.O., Marky, Pro’Verb, Ra the MC, Wordsmith, The Paxtons, Cayan, Ice the Villain, Dre-Ski, Nike Nando, Amor Jones, PHZ-Sicks, K-Beta, Tha Future, Volition, and Jabee.
