This Tiny Desk concert was part of Tiny Desk Fest, a four-night series of extended concerts performed in front of a live audience and streamed live on TH-cam, Twitter and Facebook.

Dec. 5, 2019 | Rodney Carmichael -- The first time Raphael Saadiq played Tiny Desk, "it was really a tiny desk."
"And honestly we were kinda complaining about it," Saadiq laughs, recalling that performance in 2009, back when hosting intimate little concerts behind Bob Boilen's desk was still a fledgling idea at NPR Music. "Like, we kinda didn't wanna do it," he admits in hindsight. It wasn't until the video-taped version of his set hit the Internet and began picking up views that the lightbulb went off for Saadiq, too. "It's like probably the biggest streaming I ever had, so it's kinda good to be back - not kinda good; it's really good to be back."
As he tells this story, exactly one decade later, Saadiq's return to a slightly bigger Tiny Desk - to close out NPR's live-streamed Tiny Desk Fest - coincides with the biggest record of his career. Named for one of three brothers who succumbed to addiction, Jimmy Lee is his most personal, most vulnerable, most fearless work yet, and it comes at a point, more than 30 years into his career, when Saadiq has nothing left to prove or lose.
This is the same man, after all, who lit the fuse for soul's popular revival as the lead for Tony! Toni! Tone!, at a time when black bands bordered near-extinction. Then he led an entire generation of artists to the well and made them drink. In addition to a solo discography that cakewalks backward through the latter half of 20th-century funk and soul, his production credits read like a score card of black music MVPs over the last 20 years (D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Mary J. Blige, Ledisi, John Legend, Solange). If he's made it look effortless, that's because, sometimes, it has been.
Take the time when he was walking around the East Village in New York one day out of the blue. "I was like, let me see where can I get a joint from," as he recalls during our post-performance conversation. The thought led him to Electric Lady Studios, where D'Angelo had taken up residence while working on his second solo album. "I rung the bell: 'Is D'Angelo here?' He opens the door. He's like, 'What's up!' I said, 'You got a joint?' 'Hell yeah I got a joint.' He's like, 'Can we do a song?' I'm like, 'Yeah, whatever....'"
Needless to say the two already had history together - they'd co-written and co-produced "Lady," D'Angelo's biggest hit until that point - and they were about to make more: "We walk in and we do "Untitled [(How Does It Feel)"] in maybe like two hours," he says.
True to form, Saadiq is still a talent magnet. For his Tiny Desk Fest set - recorded on Halloween, which explains the costumed crowd - he's joined by rising soul singer and songwriter Lucky Daye, who released his Grammy-nominated debut album, Painted, and made his own Tiny Desk debut this year. Daye performs two songs from that album, in addition to backing Saadiq, who also brought along a sousaphone player for his Instant Vintage classic, "Still Ray."
His collaborative performance with Daye is yet another testament to Saadiq's widespread influence, which remains something of an open secret to those in the know. Meanwhile, Jimmy Lee continues to garner Saadiq the kind of attention typically reserved for newer artists. After a career spent contributing so much of his genius behind the scenes and painting over the dark spots in his past with bright, ecstatic strokes, his latest feat feels like a revelation.
"I'm really just shocked about my whole career," he says. "People say Raphael Saadiq is the most slept-on artist. I think I slept on myself, too. I would read this all the time [and] go, 'Slept on? I'm slept on? Cause I ain't Kanye? Cause I ain't talking loud?' Naw, they know."
Indeed, we always have.

Tony! Toni! Tone! dayz????
ephitania way back when they dropped Lil Walter--
me!
My Ex Girlfriend Is A HOE!!!
😂🤴🏿🤷🏿♂️🔊🎶🔊🤦🏿♂️
I've been rocking that long!!! Since Tony Toni Tone!!! I have the best memories to that music...Whoooooooo!!
"Heyyyyyy little Walter..." 😁
Who else pressed like before watching! 🙋🏽♀️
LaLaFlyy With you 😂😂😂
I typed a 3 sentence comment before hearing a note. Lol
That’s called ‘confirmation bias’
you already know!!!
ALREADY KNEW it was Going to be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Raphael Saadik is so gracious. He not only included Lucky Daye but really made him at home, hyped him up and allowed him to sing 2 of his own songs with the amazing band. What a great mentor. And you can see how grateful Lucky Daye feels.
He looked suprised when the guitarist started playing Call, like he wasnt expecting it.
GRACIOUS IS THE WORD
!!
Yu fb hey hey
Os dois são feras, e sabem disso, ninguém precisa se sentir agradecido ali. Lindo de ver, lindo de ouvir.
When I first heard Lucky Daye I just knew he was connected to "The Raphael Saadiq" I'm glad 😊 I am Right...This performance by both has let me know Heaven and God's Gifts 🎁 and Blessings 🙌 is Alive and Well
Raphael is in the same vein as Curtis Mayfield. Writing, composing, and singing. His hands are everywhere guiding the culture.
Curtis has movie scores too. Where the real money is made.
Yep... 🥰❤️🎙🎶
Look at him putting DAYE on!!!!!!
That’s BLACK LOVVE!!!!!!
Raphael Saadiq the GOAT & Lucky Daye the Protégé. The Neo-Soul Vibe Tribe. 🍃
TheNoirTheory 🙌🏽
Just thinkn same
TheNoirTheory Ahhhhh, Bro! Lucky is a *STAND ALONE ACT* Do the research and let his body of work *SPEAK* 👑💫🙌⭐👑 Vocals alone put him in a cat like Mike! No dis intended, but Luck deserves *ALL HIS OWN CRED*
And you are fine
Big Facts
Here in 2024 ❤
One of my fav Tiny Desk performances
I swear Saadiq doesn't age. He's been at it forever and still looks the same.
exactly
I Think His Ears Are Shaped Like An Amphitheatre.......
tell him to take off that hat, lol
@demarko9999, no way, that hat is cool!
@@kathyhollenbach7413 i was referring to the hair underneath it
Only a real G like Raphael would bring another artist on his show to shine like that. Goosebumps all around
Charmaine L he confident in his skill set and understands what the come up was like.
Indeed!
Ikr! He could have easily performed his 3decades of music. I respect him so much for that
He needed somebody who can actually sing be honest
@@jermaineblalock5553 hahah I didn't wanna say it.. he even forgot some words
Raphael & Lucky? We honestly don’t deserve these great tiny desks you all have given us!
Facts‼
EXACTLY that!
We don’t deserve it!!!! WE REALLY DO NOT!!!!!!
But keep em coming anyway!
Speak for yourself 😂
This man is unsung. Has been a solid artist for 30+years
Unsung means they've feel off the scene. He has nvr feel off
@@mswv1●fell ●fell
Wrong.
Lucky Daye did D'angelo part so well 😭 definitely jumping to his Tiny Desk performance next.
Why do these Tiny Desk Concerts ALWAYS sound better than the original tracks 😎😏
I agree. I wish we could buy them
It's why I love concerts. There is something that you just cannot get on a studio album.
@@TNDCBaby Yes and it's all live and no tracks.
They are live
@@blkice2789 I know. I prefer it live
this man don't get the respect he deserves he is a musical genius, been in the game over 25 years and he aging like fine wine
Just saw him Saturday in L.A.
Never been a real fan until now.
I was moved.
Ugh I tried to see him that concert was sold out
Facts!!!
giggit...he set the neosoul thing...OFF....the OG...loved him with TTT 2 !
@@norfloslotcar I love Neo-Soul music. I’m either listening to Neo-Soul or Smooth Jazz most of the time...really cool, chillaxed music.
That Lucky Daye is something special. Voice sooo smooth!
Lucky daye killed "you should be here"..the freestyle melody vibe at the end was on point yaheardme 💯💯💯⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️
I was captivated
You could be blindfolded and still kno it’s Raphael Sadiq!!!! That voice!!!!

Agreed. I work a block away and can see the studio from MY tiny desk. Can I get some tix????????????????????
😆😂😆😂😆😂🥰
@@emeeul 😫😫😫
This is like passing the R&B torch from one talented artist to another. Raphael Saadiq is handsome, super talented as a singer, songwriter, producer for himself, the groups he was in Tony! Tone! Toni!, Lucy Pearl and other artists. This is a top five best NPR Tiny Desk. Lucky Daye is one of the best new school R&B artists out now. They both deserve their flowers.
@@sshu2602i didn't know that
You can tell that young brother was inspired by d Angelo you can here it in his voice. It’s like a breath of fresh air. I wish they start back making music like this
Raphael looking the same 20 years later aging like fine wine❤️ Love that man
He is a whole MOOD..
Kawanda Johnson facts and way before people were even saying “mood”
@@GlacticSoul okkkkkkk..like I just wanna sip wine and vibe out
Kawanda Johnson the fit is a whole mood as well
I need a "drank" in my hand and he ain't even sang the first note! 😂
Omg yes! Say that...say that
This just confirms how special lucky Daye is! Raphael is so amazing! He always been my favorite! Gifted and a genius! Beautiful inside and out!
Has anyone realized Saadiq's music sound likes it crackling over vinal wax? This is real music and the supporting instrumentalist sounds so well seasoned it blends together. Wow "Lucky Day" is an awesome vocalist.
Very similar to Mint Condition this music of R&B by these artist is "food for my soul". Thank you!!!!!!!!
I needed this so bad and yes like a ollllddd 45
You’re watching a master at work. The Godfather of Neo Soul
Agreed!!! 👍
Positively!!!
True.
Amen brotha.
The production value of Tiny Desk Concert videos have gone way up without losing their sense of intimacy with the viewers. Love it!
Those lights gotta go. Terrible addition to the desk.
@@27thstreet3 I think it was just for this one because it was a live stream
I love these video I wish I could be in the audience for one of these
@@Dgpcars I dont understand? THere are 2 vids up now with these lights. Where they all filmed on the same day for the same stream?
James Wilson yes there was a NPR music fest that happened at night. This and Megan thee Stallion were filmed during those nights.
Raphael is a treasure. This man has voice like none other and his music is just soulful.
That TUBA!!!! KILLED it, Raph will always be the man!!! I would love to sing anything written by this genius.
At first I am thinking Tuba where, then the TUBA came out bumpin😂
IDC if D'Angelo gets up here singing songs from 1999...HE SHOULD BE HERE come on Tiny Desk
Lol facts
I see what you did there, lol
Would love to see this but good luck getting him there. Heard he was extremely hard to book.
I don’t even care if he’s 30 pounds overweight... I just need him on here.
Nooo...I'll pop up pregnant
I swear if Prince was still alive, by now he would be convinced to do Tiny Desk as well. RIP The Greatest.
I was just thinking about him.
beatz04 RIP Prince!!!
Prince 4 Ever!
Wow i was thinking of Prince when i heard that guitar solo...boy
Lucky daye expressions while he sings 🤤🌊
I came here for Ralph but stayed for Lucky 🍀 OMGAWD THE VOICE‼️👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥
Lucky Daye is fine and his voice is beautiful!!!😍😍😍
Yes!! I love him!!! He’s a cutie pie.
Ain't he tho! 💞
I love him! I saw him in concert when he came to Dallas in October. Sounds even better live!!
❤❤❤💃💃💃💯
I love how Raphael shared his platform with a younger artist and advised him on which song was best to sing. So many newer artist are narcissistic and selfish...afraid to include anyone else in their shine. They don't realize when God blesses you with a gift that if you keep the right attitude you'll never be out done or cast aside because what He has for you is for you. Doesn't hurt anything to help someone else sometimes :-)
That is so true
This alone shows what a kind heart he has. 15.12.19
Not2008Me word
Raphael is incredible
Who is the young man? Missed the announcement
Lucky Daye can make a grown Woman cry!!!! I can watch this a million times! Thank you Raphael for introducing him to me🤗
Misunderstood is one of my favorite songs from him
How sweet letting another artist sing 😻 his voice is amazing too 👏🏿👌🏿🙌🏿❤️
NPR may as well have its own record label! Lucky’s Tiny Desk was great, too. I’ve been stalking the NPR job board. Imagine lunch concerts as part of your benefits package! 😲
🙌🏽
Oh that would be delicious!
What a great idea!!! I hope they are paying attention to your comment! 💯👏🏿👏🏿💯
Non profit organizations can't suddenly start recording companies
Lucky Daye has that early 90’s vibe....
I just love him❤️❤️
He's got a little bit of that Joe vibe in my opinion.
Can't put a date on Good music
This is the first time of ever hearing about this dude Lucky Daye; He's got a special voice (lady killer) he should be recognized as one of the top up and coming talents period, new fan here
he has his own tiny desk you should check it out!!
This performance was better than his own imo lol
They both were good you trippin
I think I’ve rewound this five times. Saadiq and Lucky I need a joint album live. This was magical
Let's let's just all appreciate the fact that he is 53 years old. The man doesn't age.
He is so finnnne
Yes. Let's all appreciate that.
@@yolandabainbain5334 ....fine as frog hair!
Only reason I didn’t like this comment is so it can stay at 53 like his age.. 🤦🏾♂️
Dont lie
Lucky Daye is just....😍😍
i just can’t take it anymore😂
He's so handsome!!!!
E.Whitt truly, he is!!!!! lol
Raphael is still a smooth and cool dude no matter what decade! Love this live performance and Luckey D. is a beast in his own rights :)
Legend, give Raphael his flowers now!! 🔥🔥🔥
Npr always getting it right next we need dwele, Jill Scott maxwell and Dangelo
Amen to that.
Yessss, yesssss, yesss, and YES to all of those mentioned.
Yes, Jaheim please
Dwele . Yes
Dwele's that Vibe
Those 3 dislikes are not aware of who this gem is to the world🤦🏾♀️ He's on of the best to ever do it 😊🙌🏾😊
Nina Angelique I’m guessing their fingers slipped on accident
i dont like hard rock or alternative music; i'd probably dislike if i accidentally slipped up into a music stream i just didn't like..that's my only explanation for the now 25 dislikes...whatever this music is fire!! :-)
He's been doing it all for decades! The youngsters don't know.
@@drearoses1306 While there are genre's I don't prefer, as a music lover/former musician, I can ALWAYS find something about any style that I like. The quality of the musicianship or something, so those 25 are just ignorant!
They better Google him....
I love Raphael voice 🤎🤎 it’s like so soothing, melodic, and a treasure to the ears … thank you
People are talking about the crowd...I'd be in awe sitting there drinking in the moment mentally and visually!
One of the most gifted artist of the last 20 years great singer, producer and performer without forgetting his talent as a guitar player
@Carlton Beckford-Dozier I was gonna say....I remember listening to him when I was in college...
Can we get a amen to the guitar player in the back!!
I didn't know if it was Thundercat or Rob Bacon.
Rob Bacon
Mskes me wanna bring home the Bscon 😂😉
@@GoldenGraham25 Thundercat is a bassist and like 20 years younger lol.
@Bradley Gaju I'm sure he's worked with Quik in the past. I'll ask him next time I see him
I can stop rewinding lucky day’s part 🔥🔥🔥
All day
I just saw Raphael Saadiq Revisits Tony! Toni! Tone! reunion tour last week in Oakland on 11/15/2023 and It was AMAZING ..so many HITS!!!
I saw them in Atlanta 10/22. Unbelievable show!!!
@@ellebeauty8737 great show! I’m from Oakland but live in Los Angeles now. We travelled home to Oakland to see them in our hometown.
It was AWESOME seeing them together after so many years! I saw them in DC, and it was so nice, we did it TWICE!!! The second night was as awesome as the first…sheer TIMELESS talent!!!❤❤❤
If Raphael Saadiq co-signs you, then you're on way to being a big star with longevity. Lucky Daye coming thru in 2020. Mr Saadiq:is a living LEGEND!!!!!!!! This concert is an amazing Christmas present to all the fans of NPR.. Absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Incidentally he produced John Legend's excellent Christmas album "Legendary Christmas". Stunning production.
His music is still the bomb!!!
Raphael Saadiq is one of the most influential soul and r&B writers and singers of the last 25 years that get's very little respect. Good Job Tiny Desk!
Amen! He's the king.
Major influencer!!!
👏👏👏
@Jerome OfThaAlphaKingz Check his catalog... And also who he has written for.
@Jerome OfThaAlphaKingz I understand. It's just he's in my opinion on the level of a Stevie Wonder or Prince.... So his recognition in camparison to them isn't quite there.

Lucky does it so effortlessly, talent overload on this tiny desk...
So happy he did "Be Here" and "Still Ray". Classics!
Ye
Shyla Janay exactly ‼️‼️‼️‼️
I love me some Raphael Saadiq! Now why did he bring out Lucky? You can't have the both of them singing together. It's an overload on the ears, I was in a trance. "Be here" was giving me a Marvin Gaye vibe. Shine on Kings! ❤️💐👑👋🏽
The mark of a great artist is their ability to bring everyone up to their level of perfection. Raphael Saadiq did that. Raphael Saadiq is a "artist" in every sense of the word, unfortunately is so underappreciated. YET.. how can you deny brilliance, the arrangements, the harmonies. Raphael is that ni**a & LUCKY...kills it
There is no one recognizing the Tuba player being able to play beautiful notes so quietly. He know how to fit in and not stomp in.
They got Badu, Saadiq, Bilal, the Roots... when is the man D’ANGELO coming !!!
That's what I want to know...he waaaayyyy over due
Him and Maxwell needs one as well. Make it happen Tiny Desk!!!
