Damn, today marks 10 years since D’Angelo last put out an album. 10 years! This guy is the male equivalent of Lauryn Hill. A musical genius who couldn’t handle fame who the general public still has their fingers crossed will one day come back and return to the top of the charts. Highly doubtful. You want D’s new shit? Buy his old album. Ha.
Update: D and The Roots cover a Gang Starr classic.
HOLY MOLY. Ten years since “Voodoo”? That means it’s been fifteen since “Brown Sugar.” Oh Lord, I’m OLD.

CLAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSIC album. Spanish Joint? One Mo’gin? Africa? Send It On? Devil’s Pie? smh….this nigga coulda been like the not so gender lines blurring Prince of our generation.

My thoughts exactly LOL It also reminds me how long me and my girl have been together cause I remember she copped the album for me.
Time flies ….. and pigs will too before D ever regains his top form. Heard any of his cameos in the last 3 or 4 years? The pipes are totally gone SMH . He could’ve been one of the greats but he was in love with the idea of being a tortured soul, like that would make him a better musician. He WANTED to wrestle with inner demons like Marvin Gaye did (remember his Vibe interview?) too bad he got his wish. Careful what you wish for I guess.
YN, you wrong for not posting a mp3 of this lost jewel.
I could listen to stuff like this all day! I need more of this!
