Pretty sure it got a 10/10 on Pitchfork. But yeah, overlooked in the sense that next to none of my friends know who this guy even is. God, this is some good stuff.
I wrote my audio engineering thesis paper on Voodoo. The journey they went through to create, mix, and master this album is truly a masterclass on the blending of analog and digital recording. D'Angelo is such a genius and the musicians he surrounded himself with were the best in the industry, and most of them said that it was one of the most difficult albums to write and record. The effort was well worth it!
This man will have you in the kitchen cooking that man some macaroni and cheese,green beans,sweet potatoes,,a damn smothered porkchop with some white rice after a session...and I'm a vegetarian.Slapped my ass back to my granddaddys porch,shit got that much soul.
Honestly , my soul would be satisfied if D'Angelo would just make more music like this AND continue to tour with small and intimate crowds . His music is medicine to my soul 💕
I know this is weird but every time I listen to this I think of good soul food cooking...fried chicken, sweet potatoes, greens, potato salad, and corn bread etc
Anthony Hamilton and Angie Stone. The Soultronics had some heat for musicians and singers. I went to see him live back in 1999 or 2000 and man that concert was so dope. And yes he can sing and play live.
What would this world be without Black Music? D'Angelo manifestation of Pure Soul! on planet Earth! feel the music all throughout your system! his silky voice the rhythm of the drum rockin the bass melodies from distant galaxies rising to intense orgasms switchin from guitar to brass to lyric to voice to bass to cymbal to snare drum lovin these vibrations Tred2019
Not a damn thing. Black music will live on. Have you heard Abraham Alexander? Excellent collaboration with WILDER WOODS rendition of SAM COOKE " BRING IT ON HOME " PEACE!!
I got this album when it first came out. I'm a white male and was constantly made fun of, now those same people listen to it and talk about it. Who's laughing now?
Male Version of Lauryn Hill ! Glad they collabed for Nothing Even Matters ! Another beautiful soulful song by 2 Wonderful Outstanding Black Artists ! We need More musically inclined artists like this today 2019 / 2020 , like if u agree
This is DEFINITELY one of D'Angelo's best songs-along with songs like, 'Untitled(How does it feel?)', 'Feel Like Makin' Love', 'Brown Sugar', 'Higher', & 'When We Get By', among others.
Higher and when we get by..and send it on are my top 3..crusin' was the 1st time I heard him in 95 in my mom car...loved him since. I'm 30 now..oh and u should be here collab wit Raphael saadiq was A MASTERPIECE
When I was young, when this came out, I did not get it, not even a little bit... Now I understand why he struggled so. To have a mind and heart and a soul that travels at such a young age at such a rapid pace, the lonely monster had his way. May God bless him to find his soul... Mate.
my soul was grieving when i found out Roy passed and he wasn't even old. it did not make sense. then i found out he was dealing with an ailment for many years and it finally took him. it is so sad .
This was the song I played when I first woke up, every morning when I was 19 before work. I love this song. D’Angelo was the music of my mornings, commute, and evenings chillin on the front porch.
Me and my wife went to see D'Angelo in concert at the Tower Theater back in 2001with Mos Def as his opening act..it was probably the best concert I have ever attended..the brother can really put on a great concert..and to top it off his musical director on the drum was none other than Quest Love from my home town of Philly
Will always be one of my favorite D'angelo songs. They just don't make music like this really no more! If they do it dont get no play its a damn shame!
I always found D'Angelo to be very similar to PRINCE! Maybe I'm far off saying this or maybe not.......but, I STILL have this album 15 years later! :-D Every damn track on it is virtually perfect!
I couldn't get enough in the 90s, and still can't get enough now. Shame about his problems. I hope D'Angelo has managed to sort himself out and living his best life with his family
2020 lost a great lady friend 2weeks ago, although I been married 29yrs to a chocolate queen but this friend was a chocolate queen too she inspired me to marry a black sister. We couldn't get along because of our strong personalities growing up, we really liked each other she could sing like patty LaBelle ,she would be singing while hanging clothes out on the line I would hear her singing and I would be peeping out my window looking and listening. The world will miss you Lady Stephanie, rejoice singing in the Heavenly Choir praising God Almighty forever more.
When this 1st came out, I swear to God I thought it was Prince💣💣I was like he came ALL the way hard with this one...and then I found out it was D'angelo...COOL👑👑👑👑👑
This song is like a mixed drink. A hint of Curtis Mayfield with a touch of Prince, shake it together and serve on the rocks. Aaaaggghhhh smooth going down.
Voodoo is certainly one of the most genius albums ever created. D'Angelo is probably the most overlooked soul artist of all time.
Too true
Yaaaasss
Not overlooked at all. Maybe not as popular as he should have been but definitely not overlooked. Pretty acclaimed, actually.
Pretty sure it got a 10/10 on Pitchfork. But yeah, overlooked in the sense that next to none of my friends know who this guy even is. God, this is some good stuff.
this was a dope album I just think brown sugar was genius music
A lot of people slept on this one. This is a timeless song in my opinion.
Classic
@@darrenpoole2513 definitely a classic
couldn't agree more
I wasn’t hip but this my go to for a couple weeks na! Definitely slept on...
Yes. I listen to this song at least once a day!!
D'Angelo is severely underrated.
Never overrated this song will forever be played
Just like your my lady
Is he though? I feel people that really know music recognize his genius.
Not in the 90s, he was not.
Nothing like him🤟🤟
I wrote my audio engineering thesis paper on Voodoo. The journey they went through to create, mix, and master this album is truly a masterclass on the blending of analog and digital recording. D'Angelo is such a genius and the musicians he surrounded himself with were the best in the industry, and most of them said that it was one of the most difficult albums to write and record. The effort was well worth it!
Sounds fascinating!
I'd Love to read that haha. Would you be willing to send it? (pun intended)
I would luv to read what you would have said...
I Wanna Read It Too Please!!!
I forgot the paper was on Spanish Joint, but I talked a lot about the process of making Voodoo as a whole on there. Enjoy!

I know this is weird but every time I listen to this I think of good soul food cooking...fried chicken, sweet potatoes, greens, potato salad, and corn bread etc

Jackie Williams you ain't the only one baby...this speaks to the black soul

+Brock Hopkins combined with vocals oml
*applauds*
Brock Hopkins that bass ain't to shabby either
That guitar lick is spine tingling
Yessir Roy Hargrove on the horn and pino palladino on bass.
I love how he did all the vocals on this track like Marvin Gaye did on "I Want You"...D'Angelo is a mastermind
Dope music awesome Cool good Listen wow powerful best ever real soul neo matter history black culture flow
Actually Anthony Hamilton is in the background
MsTreynatra yep the way he layered them is masterful
Anthony Hamilton and Angie Stone.
The Soultronics had some heat for musicians and singers. I went to see him live back in 1999 or 2000 and man that concert was so dope. And yes he can sing and play live.
YAS!!!!!!! I want you is MY TUNE!!!!
1:13 never felt so good about simping before.

This track feels like it was made by Al Green or Teddy Pendergrass. Got that 70’s feel. This is GOLD

Ari Lennox ...Backseat gets rotation over here.Keep it movin,sis.💖

I got this album when it first came out. I'm a white male and was constantly made fun of, now those same people listen to it and talk about it. Who's laughing now?
Karma got to them lol. Keep doing you bro and fuck the haters and those that want to talk crap about your taste in music :)
Vindication!
Vindication!
You have good taste. Why the f*** would they make fun of you?? There ain't nothing to make fun of... extreme square syndrome or sumthin.
we could listen to music like this all night Chris!
that man said late in the mid nite hour....come thru jesus
Lol..lol...yes suh
Dang
Yes God!!!!!!!🤣😭❤❤❤❤❤
His voice makes you want to surrender ❤❤❤😊😂😂
Male Version of Lauryn Hill ! Glad they collabed for Nothing Even Matters ! Another beautiful soulful song by 2 Wonderful Outstanding Black Artists ! We need More musically inclined artists like this today 2019 / 2020 , like if u agree
Exactly
This is one of the greatest R&B albums of my era & ever. No debating that. U can hear the Prince influence all thru this song
Gregory, thank you. I agree 👍 💯 🙆♂️. I'm wondering if he will be making more music. Happy Thanksgiving to you & family.
That bass though 😍😍😍
Pino Palladino on bass 😊🤘
This is DEFINITELY one of D'Angelo's best songs-along with songs like, 'Untitled(How does it feel?)', 'Feel Like Makin' Love', 'Brown Sugar', 'Higher', & 'When We Get By', among others.
Higher and when we get by..and send it on are my top 3..crusin' was the 1st time I heard him in 95 in my mom car...loved him since. I'm 30 now..oh and u should be here collab wit Raphael saadiq was A MASTERPIECE
The line too.. and Geto Heaven with Common.. it makes me cry every fuckin’ time
I'm so upset that I hadn't heard this in soo long and I forgotten about it.. this is Neo Soul at its best..
Mr Word You BETTER SANG DeAngelo!
Soul neo matter love song best ever
Awesomeness!!
just soul. no need for the neo
I'm only 24 and most folks say "girl what you know about this type of music" I've always been an old soul and know great music when I hear it 💯❤️
And That’s All Need To Be Said 😂😂❤
There is no age requirement to enjoying good music. D'Angelo is a young man. He just turned 50 this year. He wrote this in his twenties.
@@PatriciaSims2426 definitely right about that
Still here in 2022. This song just does it for me
When I was young, when this came out, I did not get it, not even a little bit... Now I understand why he struggled so. To have a mind and heart and a soul that travels at such a young age at such a rapid pace, the lonely monster had his way. May God bless him to find his soul... Mate.
That intro! This song takes me away to peaceful place
It surrrre does :)
Yes soror!
July 2024 we still vibing 🔥
You can’t disguise your emotions!!!! Cause I SEE in Your eyes!!!!! Send It ON!
Man I miss Roy Hargrove so much, that man had such a soulful sound on the trumpet and played with so many great musicians. RIP
Have you his documentary? Perfection
my soul was grieving when i found out Roy passed and he wasn't even old. it did not make sense. then i found out he was dealing with an ailment for many years and it finally took him. it is so sad .
still get chills from this song.
getting chills by looking at yo picture
+Kenyatta X 😂😂😂nice try bruh

🌹🌹🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Living Legend and King🖤✊🏾👑✨✨
Damnit didn't know he was on there smh
Still listening to this as well
Who did he go against?
20 years later this album remains ahead of its time
❤️💎
directions for reaching God.
This was the song I played when I first woke up, every morning when I was 19 before work. I love this song. D’Angelo was the music of my mornings, commute, and evenings chillin on the front porch.
Me and my wife went to see D'Angelo in concert at the Tower Theater back in 2001with Mos Def as his opening act..it was probably the best concert I have ever attended..the brother can really put on a great concert..and to top it off his musical director on the drum was none other than Quest Love from my home town of Philly
Hello Philly, I can imagine you both had a great time. I'm wondering if he'll make more music. Awesome. Thank you.
Prince and D’Angelo and Marvin are all I need.
2023 where the love is needed.
Who’s still listening to this masterpiece in 2021 🧏🏽♀️?!
this song makes me forget everything...i love it
Sure Does
Yes......yes
One of my top 5 most fave songs of all times, from my most fave solo singer.

Dope music awesome Cool good Classic Lyrics wow powerful soul neo matter love song best ever real soul r&b music
Oh how much I love D'Angelo's music? These RAPPER'S are fighting & killing each other & can't even take a vibe like D'Angelo.
"Run run run" on the run. Super slick ♥️💯
❤❤❤ yes indeed
I want music like this again 🤦🏾♀️
The voice is heavenly...almost angelic with a raw cheekiness with God saying...go on then..sing it like it is winking at the same time...Gold
I agree 👍 💯 🙆♂️
I'm wondering what went wrong with him & Angie? I was so in love with him &
Jaheim from my Era!!!
I always found D'Angelo to be very similar to PRINCE! Maybe I'm far off saying this or maybe not.......but, I STILL have this album 15 years later! :-D Every damn track on it is virtually perfect!
One of the top 3 artists of all time
I couldn't get enough in the 90s, and still can't get enough now. Shame about his problems. I hope D'Angelo has managed to sort himself out and living his best life with his family
Here in 2023 and man this song ❤his voice is so peaceful.
Who else still listen to this in 2021? Feels like an old bottle of wine.
This makes me know that I do have a soul.
I can NEVER just play this song ONCE #Meow
agreed love this so much..

Totally......I play it several times a day. It never gets old.
KittyOfTheCityTV never ever its always like 3 4 n 5 times
KittyOfTheCityTV me eithet

Laaawd have mercy? It sounds new & newer evrytime that I'm listening. March 4th, 2024? JAMAICA 👌 💛 🇯🇲
If this man doesn't come back and make more music.... Man was n still is the dam truth
I have synaesthesia and when i tell you this song sets off all my senses... Lord! Overstimulated in the most beautiful way
2020 lost a great lady friend 2weeks ago, although I been married 29yrs to a chocolate queen but this friend was a chocolate queen too she inspired me to marry a black sister. We couldn't get along because of our strong personalities growing up, we really liked each other she could sing like patty LaBelle ,she would be singing while hanging clothes out on the line I would hear her singing and I would be peeping out my window looking and listening. The world will miss you Lady Stephanie, rejoice singing in the Heavenly Choir praising God Almighty forever more.
Thank you
I'm sorry for your loss
When this 1st came out, I swear to God I thought it was Prince💣💣I was like he came ALL the way hard with this one...and then I found out it was D'angelo...COOL👑👑👑👑👑
One of his greatest songs ever👌🏾💯
Still rocking this on 2024
So soulful...and to think that this man came from Richmond. Really an inspiration
Yes 804 va stand up
This song just always does it for me!! So mellowsmooth!!!
D'angelo just took us to church. That five part harmony 5 Blind Boys chuuch!
I don't think D' can help taking us to church. Vocally it seems to be just who he is. That ol school gospel quartet sound.
12/9/23 I was here 🌹 💐 SEND IT ON. Thank you.
This song is like a mixed drink. A hint of Curtis Mayfield with a touch of Prince, shake it together and serve on the rocks.
Aaaaggghhhh smooth going down.
Heard this song for the first time in a long time the other day I forgot how much I loved it
D'angelo was perfection on verzuz last night🎶🎤❤👏🏾
Still listening to this in 2017....... D'Angelo outdid himself with this one
I think that's probably why he never bothered following it up, you just can't beat perfection.
"Yeah jobs done" history made.
It's a vibe ❤
Those horns are about to give birth...painfully sweet!! Go D'Angelo!!!
Bout to listen 3000 more times gotta play this for the people in the back around the corner!
