RASPBERRY SKY | THE R&B VIKING
M
Modern R&B with dust on it. Midnight energy. Heavy soul.
His sound? A blend of Prince, R. Kelly, Boyz 2 Men, Carl Thomas and Tank , a blend of 90's vocals with 80's production. Raw. Direct. Unapologetic and at the same time nostalgic and vulnerable.
The lyrics don’t whisper. They confess. They seduce. They confront.
This is where vulnerability stands tall next to confidence. Grown man music. Heavy soul. No shortcuts. Just truth over drums and a groove that lingers long after the lights come back on.
LATEST ALBUM DROP!
Lavender Feels is Raspberry Sky in his quiet power. A slow-burning R&B album soaked in intimacy, restraint, and late-night emotion. The sound is warm and atmospheric, blending modern soul with analog tenderness, where every vocal feels close and every beat breathes. Lavender becomes a mood, calm, sensual, healing.
The songs linger in the spaces between desire and vulnerability: unread messages, soft confessions, love that doesn’t rush but stays. Lush synths, subtle funk, and layered vocals create a private room for reflection and connection.
This is Lavender Feels.
