PG County’s own Reggie Becton drops his brand new Raphael Saadiq-Inspired love song titled, “Rainin In LA.”
“It’s inspired by one of the most classic and famous lyrics in the world of R&B: “it never rains in Southern California” written by one of my favorite 90’s R&B songwriters, Raphael Saadiq. Most people, including myself, move to LA for the 24/7 sunshine but after living here for three years, I realized it does actually rain in southern California and quite a lot. On the night Rainin in LA was written, I was about to wrap up a studio session around 4 am and I just remember looking out of the window seeing it was still pouring down rain and I started thinking about this amazing girl I met at an art show the night before. I thought I was experiencing love at first sight for the first time, but once I realized she lived two hours away I knew LA traffic would turn that into a three hour commute and what could’ve been, quickly lost its magic.” – Reggie Becton
