Grammy-nominated singer/songwriters Bee-B and Raheem DeVaughn have joined forces for a passionate track titled “Can We?”
On the steamy banger, Bee-B and DeVaughn exchange verses about their desire to fall in love with someone special.
In the first verse, DeVaughn describes the trial and errors he has endured while pursuing relationships. This time around, he thinks he has found the person.
“I swore the last one was my last / Out of nowhere you just showed up and made me take my words back,” he sings.
Bee-B echoes DeVaughn’s sentiments in the second verse. After moving on from men who only wanted to “hit and run,” she finds her her knight in shining armor who has restored hope in her heart.
“I done got so used to the ones that just hit and run / You do it for me, that’s why I do it for you / You got me, you got me looking at all of the proof / Honestly, honestly already knew you were mine,” she sings.
Bee-B expressed in a statement that she wanted to “bring back love songs and love stories in music.”
She added, “This is an ode to real love. This is an ode to believing in love again. I want to be in love right now. Having Raheem one of the greatest R&B artists out of the DMV on this record is an honor. We created a love story through this single.”
DeVaughn stated, “I think as an artist there’s magic that we look to create when we do collaborations and duets like this. Bee-B and I found that space with this bedroom banger. We got one!”
“Can We?” is the lead single from Bee-B’s upcoming EP, Love Me While I’m Here. It will follow her 2018 EP, Urban Nostalgia. In January, she released a live rendition of the EP titled Urban Nostalgia: The Live Sessions.
As for DeVaughn, he has been doing a lot collaborations lately. He recently teamed up with R&B legend Keith Sweat for their duet “Can’t Nobody,” which first reached the top 10 on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart in late February.
In January, he released a joint album with Bee Boy$oul called Back 2 Love. Last month, he joined Eric Roberson in the video for his “Lessons (Remix),” along with Anthony Hamilton and Kevin Ross. The song appears on Roberson’s new album, Lessons, out now.
