This here is the album I've wanted from you since the early nineties. Talent, foresight, ego plus the minimum necessary portion of taste and attitude. It could be yours. But you, dear Prince seem only to stagger like a blind hen which again recognizes a grain here and there. Who knows, maybe you had a crash sometimes needed to get back to a clear view as D'Angelo. Or a friend who would you believe that it's usually better to just shut up, as long as you do not Mesagge. Whether this process then takes 5, 10 or 15 years does not matter. At the end one only feel.
D'Angelo - Black Messiah? 100% respect and a deep bow.
