every time a news item about D'Angelo is accompanied by a picture of young sex symbol D'Angelo, i picture ?uestlove shouting "no, you're going to make him go back into hiding!"

"Black stardom is rough, dude," Chris Rock tells me when I reach him to talk about D. "I always say Tom Hanks is an amazing actor and Denzel Washington is a god to his people. If you're a black ballerina, you represent the race, and you have responsibilities that go beyond your art. How dare you just be excellent?"

After Brown Sugar went platinum, Rock put D'Angelo on The Chris Rock Show. Later, when D was mixing Voodoo, Rock hung out some in the studio. No surprise, then, that the first thing out of Rock's mouth after "Hello" is a joyful "He's back!" But he adds a sobering downbeat: "D'Angelo. Chris Tucker. Dave Chappelle. Lauryn Hill. They all hang out on the same island. The island of What Do We Do with All This Talent? It frustrates me."

Gah, first time in 3 years I've missed Bonnaroo, and it's the one he shows up at:

There was nothing tentative about D’Angelo’s performance. He took his place at keyboards and floated his voice into the opening of Hendrix’s “Have You Ever Been (to Electric Ladyland),” pitched right where his tenor glides into falsetto. He had the yowl for Sly and the Family Stone’s “Babies Makin’ Babies,” the shout for the Beatles’ “She Came in Through the Bathroom Window” and a blues-rock wail for Led Zeppelin’s “What Is and What Should Never Be”; his phrasing was spontaneous and sure. And when he was not singing, he was fully engaged in the instrumental jams.

retro-shittified (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 11 June 2012 19:15 (11 months ago) Permalink

it was an unannounced appearance at an 'after-party' type tent performance after The Roots' main festival set, D is probably waiting for a proper headlining show to do his own songs

ah that makes sense

“Argh!” I cry. But I really don’t care. (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 12 June 2012 02:34 (11 months ago) Permalink

I was there, about 20 feet away from the man... it was utterly life-affirming. So much joy and effortless singing and playing. The highlight of the festival for me.

Davey D, Tuesday, 12 June 2012 07:57 (11 months ago) Permalink

I mean... effortlessly brilliant singing and playing...
