Event Details
Raphael Saadiq brings his ‘No Bandwidth’ tour to the MGM National Harbor in Washington, DC on Tuesday September 30, 2025!
Over the course of five groundbreaking solo albums, three GRAMMY® Awards (and 22 additional nominations), and recognition from both the Oscars and Golden Globes, Raphael Saadiq has cemented his status as a true icon of contemporary music. Between his work as an artist, producer and songwriter, he has sold over 30 million records worldwide. 
His remarkable journey began in 1984, when, at just 18 years old, he was already sharing stages with music royalty Prince and Sheila E. His artistry soon flourished with the formation of Tony! Toni! Toné!, which helped define the sound of ’90s R&B. With unforgettable anthems like “If I Had No Loot” and “Anniversary,” Saadiq became a pivotal figure in shaping the genre’s landscape. Saadiq’s influence expanded as he ventured into a critically acclaimed solo career, debuting with the genre-defining Instant Vintage in 2002. His unique ability to seamlessly blend vintage soul with modern sensibilities propelled him to the forefront of the pop and R&B genres, while his production genius turned him into one of the most sought-after collaborators in music.
From D’Angelo’s iconic Voodoo to Solange’s A Seat at the Table, Saadiq has shaped some of the most influential albums of the 21st century. His own critically lauded Jimmy Lee (2019) further solidified his reputation as a boundary-pushing artist. His recent contributions to Beyoncé’s iconic albums, Renaissance and Cowboy Carter have earned him 8 more GRAMMY® nominations. As he enters the fifth decade of his illustrious career, Raphael Saadiq remains an indispensable force, continuing to shape and redefine the sound of contemporary pop and soul.

The signature parade competition in Rio’s Sambadrome Stadium goes on through the entire week, where the top samba troops in the city contend fiercely for the coveted championship crown. Showcased are large, hand-crafted, visually impressive parade floats from each Samba school, led by a beautiful “Samba Queen”. The Samba Queen is accompanied by thousands (yes, thousands) of male & female singers, drummers and dancers in dazzling costumes performing choreographed routines to the Samba beat. It is such an overwhelming, exuberant display of artistry & showmanship – that if you look closely, you’ll may even spot several Samba dancers with absolutely no costume at all! (WHOA)
