After attending college in New York and putting out a few demos and has recorded background vocals for multiple artists including Celine Dion, Natasha Bedingfield,Jennifer Hudson and R&B singer Brandy.
The friend zone ballad, that many women will be able to relate to is an acoustic, guitar-driven track with RaVaughn's smoky vocals sounds sweet as could be. "I just feel like it's so relatable to everybody," the stylish and beautiful RaVaughn told Rap-Up.com of the song, which she co-wrote with her sister. "It's just having that best friend where you fall in love with them and they don't know it, so you have to be that best friend and coach them through whatever they're asking you. The song is all about getting that courage to finally let that person know, 'I'm not your f**king best friend.'"
RaVaughn co-directed the clip with her younger sister, actress Rhyon Brown along with Talia Myers. Draped in gold flakes, the clip features the stylish and beautiful RaVaughn attempting to sort out her feelings for her best friend (played by Justin Walker), but it's hard to tell if he's feeling the same. As she soaks in a swimming pool filled with rose petals while reflecting on their relationship. They share tears, laughs, and hugs, but he doesn't realize that she's in love with him. "My favorite moment of the video is probably the whole pool scene, just because I've never done anything like that before. I had this gold glitter on my face, and we created a scene that was pretty much a fantasy."
