I always love doing We've Got A File On You interviews for Stereogum, and this week I did one of my favorites ever. I got to ask Raphael Saadiq about his work with Tony! Toni! Tone! and Lucy Pearl and his productions for Beyonce, D'Angelo, Brent Faiyaz, and Solange. We talked about real studio nerd stuff like Mellotrons and Clavinets and how recording to tape is different that recording digitally. He told me which of his songs made Prince dance in the rain, and which one inspired what a lot of people named their daughters.
