About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

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

September 30, 2006: This is perfect marriage of Funk, hip hop Soul and some Jazz. I don't like it when Critics put a label on music and call it Neo Soul or something. Because I think it takes away from it good music is just that good music. But everything time I listen this CD it takes me back to the time when music was about the art of seduction wooing your woman and Love. This CD captures that, D'angelo's talent is unbelievably impeccable from producing and writing these songs. I can't say enough good things about his talents. Hopefully Im praying he blesses us the fans with another gem like this. Someday
