Granted, most R&B is about sex, but in D'Angelo's hands it's all about foreplay. His sultry tempos and devilish crooning are pure carnal passion, with solid nods to stylistic antecedents. Prince's influence is all over this 1995 debut, as are shades of Isaac Hayes, Marvin Gaye, and Smokey Robinson, but it is D'Angelo's hip-hop flavor that makes him a modern voice. His bubbling, reedy organ riffs and sweet falsetto vocals turn up the heat on the title track (produced by A Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed Muhammad) and a cover of Robinson's "Cruisin'," while "Shit, Damn, Motherfucker" is a study in street cool. BROWN SUGAR's blend of classic soul and urban attitude makes D'Angelo a soul man for the '90s and beyond. Martin Johnson, Barnes & Noble
