Wow this is a total surprise!  I had no idea he was working on new material.  Currently jamming the 'Voodoo' album as I write, gotta check this out soon.

Voodoo was a classic but I know he fell in to cocaine oblivion for years so this is refreshing.

I think people are truly looking for a "Messiah" in black music.  D'angelo's was dope back in the day, but let's not get carried away.  And if it sounds like Prince then I ain't fuccin wit it

lol...he always had a big prince influence. which prince albums do you know?

Got the CD and playing it over and over, very impressive.  I really like the guitars on 'Prayer' and the last track 'Another Life' is just brilliant.
Interestingly, I only really recently got into Voodoo after having it for quite a while.  I think it was because 'Brown Sugar' was so easy to get into and contains some of D'Angelo's best records, but some of the stuff on Voodoo is so multi-layered and is just phenomenal to listen to.

Brown Sugar and Voodoo were much better albums , but it's nice to see a comeback from D'angelo . At first listen i jumped the gun and called it great but after comparing it to his first two albums it's really just mediocre .

You're right. It took me a few years to realise how good it is. Brown sugar is dope but Voodoo is just brilliant !
