Last Friday, singer Raheem DeVaughn turned up with is hometown to celebrate the release of his fifth studio album “Love Sex & Passion” at Eden Lounge in DC.

The crooner hosted guests at the swanky downtown lounge as he played the album in its entirety. He reminded us that it’s been 10 years since he released his debut album “The Love Experience” and told everyone he wanted to greet them personally. The Hennessey models met him at the stage with shots and Henny-infused chocolate covered strawberries. Raheem walked through the crowd feeding ladies fantasies and pallets and toasted to the love in the room with all the men.

He also mentioned that he will be going on tour with Ledisi and Leela James, teasing the men because he’s going to spend two months and 28 cities between “all that chocolate.” Raheem then performed a few tracks impromptu and then encouraged attendees to contribute to his nonprofit organization Love Life Foundation.

Of course I had to take him aside and get the exclusive inside scoop on what went into Love, Sex & Passion, what was going on when he penned tracks like “All I Know (My Heart)” and “Black Ice Cream,” and what it’s like dating the hardest working man in R&B. Watch our exclusive one-one-one here and leave your thoughts in the comments.
