Longtime fans have watched Rahsaan Patterson grow from the skinny, wide-eyed boy on the classic children's show KIDS INCORPORATED to one of the most influential soul men on the planet. All of that comes to glorious fruition on BLEUPHORIA, comprised of his trademark gorgeous ballads, hypnotic mid-tempo tracks, funk-drenched club grooves and genre-defying studio experiments. Rooted in the classic principles of melody and poetic lyrics while joyously embracing '80s R&B/Pop a la Prince and Michael Jackson, BLEUPHORIA is the sound of personal fears being conquered and artistic growth unfolding beautifully.
