There is no denying that Raghav still has a massive following, as evidenced by his hectic tour schedule, but his career has definitely had its ups and downs over the years. Raghav is seen as a 'crossover' artist, who personally sites a fusion of musical influences and styles that include hip-hop, R&B, reggae and soul. He has worked with a variety of prominent producers, including Sly & Robbie, Mushtaq, Peter Wade and Incognito.

In 2008 Raghav had a hectic tour schedule, which included dates in Miami, Detroit, Delhi, Bombay, New York, Bangladesh, Manchester, London and San Francisco. The same year he signed a new management deal with Palestar Entertainment and a new recording contract with Homepage Records.

The talented artist has sold more than 1.5 million records worldwide. He is taking on his first commercial release in North America with The Phoenix produced in the U.K. by Labrinth, which should be released in October in Canada.
