Who is Raquel Nicole Jete’. Well let me answer that question for you. She is a talented singer who is feeding your soul through a combination of jazz, funk, and neo soul gospel music. Jete’ is described as the India Arie of Christian Music. Right now we are living in chaotic and challenging times. I am a firm believer that the music should reflect the times.
