Interview by: Camillia Harris. I met the R&B singer Ray Lavender at Café Nineteen in Atlantic Station to interview him. As I sat in front of Mr. Ray Lavender. His intriguing eye-catching, million dollar smile, with an innocent cocoa brown complexion, comforting a warm charisma captures my attention, to say the least. From the moment he introduced himself, I knew this interview would come at ease. Although I would have preferred him to sit across from me, he sat beside me and warmly introducing himself “Hello, I’m Ray Lavender”.
