Thinking about Grandmother's chicken for the How does it feel video. Lol. I feel the record label was like if you want this album to sell show that skin.

Just so you know, Jason’s lyric was a popular movie in the 90s at least in black households.

Surprising to see a Pikmin reference in this vid lol. I’m a big fan of Pikmin and D’angelo.

I grew up listening to the Beatles, Stones, and Prince. Listened to Queens of the Stone Age, Nirvana, and System of a Down in high school (in Indiana.) Spent 15yrs worth of money on a record collection… Voodoo is my all time favorite album. And as I age past 40 years old, it's distancing itself from the rest. Truly a genius.

Between the "Eurocentric" pronunciations of Black vernacular & the whole thing about D'Angelo singing "funny" on certain songs, this dude should NOT be reviewing artists and creatives. (at least not POC – i shudder to think what you did with the Prince "review"!) Maybe stick with simple radio pabulum or better yet, video games.

Man I go through a lot of music phases from country to hip hop but Voodoo has had me memorized for like 6 months… D’Angelo is one of the best musicians of all time straight up…

D’Angelo is the Sade of Neo Hip Hop Soul. Takes large breaks and always comes back with that strong fire!

Where can you watch the documentary devils pie? I tried looking for it for years and it doesn't appear to be purchasable anywhere.

Bravo my friend!! You truly are a music aficionado. Your analysis of Lo’s short but brilliant music career is beyond reproach. He truly is a musical savant. With beings such as him you don’t get a lot but when it comes it is true art. I read an article in GQ in which it mentions Lo’s battle with the spiritual influence of what one may see as the forces of light versus those of darkness. Some of his grooves can come from the Pentecostal church and others from Parliament Funkadelic…ya dig! What ever the case may be, I will be happy when the battle comes to a truce. Music truly is my sanctuary and I would love to hear a near album before my last breath. As I said earlier, you put in work in your analysis of the work.

My latest project is to recreate "Spanish Joint" on the ukulele (as a part of my vocal study/training). When I started to dig into D'Angelo's work deeper I began to appreciate his mastery even more. His songs are very musical and polished to perfection similar to more well-known artists like Miles Davis or Prince.

Political message songs are so tiresome. Shut up and sing. Nobody’s doing a song about the white victims of black crime.

Artists can take as long as they need as far as I'm concerned. They don't owe us anything.

If you want another DDD on a neo-soul artists who has years between recent releases, you could do Maxwell. (insert Doofenshmirtz 2 nickels line here)

"You Will Know" was written with his oldest brother Luther Archer, not Jason. Luther Archer also co-wrote on Brown Sugar and Voodoo.

I know this sounds corny but I am so grateful for this video. Always wanted to have a better understanding of what D'Angelo had to deal with. He really is a genius. I made sure I DID get to see him front row on Black Messiah tour. I feel like you could still tell that he is a shy guy

Relieved to know that I only need to wait 5 more years for a D’Angelo album.

Jason's Lyric is like a cult classic it was not meant to go mainstream

Dude what’s the background music at 8:30 ???
@ZachMeador
October 30, 2024 at 7:22 pm
i feel deeply apologetic+grateful for the fact that 1: i've seen D'Angelo and the Vanguard live and 2. i had no idea who they were and just wandered into the show at a festival. i went from "i'll see 10 minutes of this show then head back to camp to get some sleep" to "i will not leave until i see their sound guy leave the booth". just, wow, what a stage presence and tight band

My favorite artist. He should have rolled with the sex symbol thing and cashed out

Yep, Jason's Lyric is a well known movie in black America.
