about love... (continued from previous page) towards a soul direction, I let it go there. Sometimes a song is birthed with its own DNA, and even if you try to change it, even if you’re like, ‘Let me put a swing beat on this,’ it’s like, ‘No.’ Sometimes it will wrench itself right back to where it’s supposed to be! And so I let it be that. “And the way I listen to music is that way. I think the way people listen to music ... though lovers of jazz, they’re not zealots. They also appreciate Bob Marley and B.B. King. In my mind ... in my writing, and how I can handle the music stylistically, it’s the family of music and it belongs together.” • Raphael Saadiq Also helping to make Valentine’s Weekend at NJPAC a romantic one: Raphael Saadiq, one of the most dazzling all-around talents of the neo-soul movement, originally rose to fame as a member of the groups Tony! Toni! Toné and Lucy Pearl before going solo in 2002, and is also an in-demand producer who has worked with the likes of Whitney Houston, Mary J. Blige, TLC, Joss Stone and John Legend. He’ll perform with support from Jamila Woods and DJ Duggz, on Friday, February 14 at 8PM in Prudential Hall. Patrizio Buanne, who grew up in Austria and Naples, has developed a worldwide following over the last 20 years—and inspired comparisons to icons such as Frank Sinatra and Michael Bublé—with his ultraromantic crooning. He’ll be on the Lizzie & Jonathan Tisch Stage at Victoria Theater on Saturday, February 15 at 8PM. And in what’s become a tradition at the Arts Center, on the Saturday of Valentine’s Day weekend, Prudential Hall will be filled with laughter at the Valentine’s All Star Comedy Show, starting at 8PM on February 15. Newark native Bill Bellamy (Any Given Sunday, Insecure) will lead a team of comics including Luenell (from Eddie Murphy’s new Netflix film, Dolemite Is My Name), Don “D.C.” Curry (from Next Friday) and Sheryl Underwood (co-host of The Talk).
