@dylan foley to school you he first started playing in the church and at revivals. He's been influenced by Prince mainly Roberta Flack etc. The song Higher is strictly gospel based the way he plays the keys that's exactly how people in black churches play. Get you some facts oh and he has an interview stating how he started in church that never leaves an artist. Look it up go watch some black churches in the USA. Better yet go visit a Baptist Church were D'Angelo is from in Virginia and you'll hear it.
Butterscotchskin5 his father was a bishop in the pentecostal church in Virginia. He says he started playing when he was 3. He says no one in his family knew he could play (catch his interview on Rosie O Donell).He mentioned that the church influence is who he is. Definitely a spiritual experience to be at one of his concerts. I can dig that. One of the most prolific singer/songwriters of all time.
I can’t believe him omg the way he played that piano ❤❤
Supremely beautiful.
FLAWLESS
Beautiful just beautiful. You can hear nothing but church in his music.
butterscotchskin5 I agree. Certainly there are other influences, but church is a major influence. It's all in him.
