Best version of Cruisin right here
holy F***
Mine is god made me funky
This Stockholm version of SDMF is so hard lmao
Broke my t-break, smoked an infused blunt, played Feel Like Makin' Love & Greatdayndamornin' & shed a couple tears, just chillin & taking in the irreplaceable music that D'Angelo left us.
Love yall og & ktt2 fam, please yall stay safe & stay healthy & I hope every single one of yall live a long prosperous life
Saw Turnstile tonight and pretty much 95% of the pre-show music was entirely D'Angelo, rip to the legend
I remember being disappointed when the streaming version got released and it wasnt this in game one lol
in retrospect i think i finally like the streaming version more now. bro knew what he was doing eventually going with that one
They finally reunited in the skies
Tell Me
omfg
The internet is a cruel place. I remember when i was younger getting into his music retroactively. At the time he had gone low and recluse and was dealing with things and headlines would pop up and it was unsavory. Online discourse was so f***ed up. And he just kept his head low.
You started getting scarce leaks like an early version “Really Love” tagged with “this is a Questlove exclusive”, “Black Hole Sun”(Cover) - sounded like it was unearthed from another period of time but so magical, and a very left field “Glass Mountain Top” feature on Mark Ronson’s album. He lets out this crazy f***ing belt on that song and it’s such a beautifully written song if you really listen to it! Man it’s like a genius convincing himself to get through whatever it was he was going through after Voodoo. It’s such a beautiful song on a random Mark Robson album.
I’m so glad he got out of that hole and dropped Black Messiah and cemented his genius after all the bullshit. “If you’re wondering about the shape I’m in, I hope it ain’t my abdomen that you’re referring to.” How his career and personal story arch landed with Black Messiah is such a happy story to me man. God bless him.

Glass Mountain Trust was sooo empowering to me when I went through a breakup
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been
And I hoped by chance, I'd see you once again
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again
I long to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin
losing roberta flack, sly, and dangelo in the same year absolutely kills me. three black prodigies man
💔

Has Questlove said anything yet ?
no.
besides prolly being one of the people that knew, he's prolly dealing with this s*** heavy
cannot sleep.
yesterday was alot.
after my afterschool music class with the 3rd graders (made it through without a breakdown) was like "lemme go to the LES for this justice themed movie night about an ex con creating a gym that only hires ex cons as trainers" cause it was something I'm both passionate about and it gave me something to do other than just sit at home crying in bed.
And my nigga Michael K Willams shows up in the film. I had to hold back tears again.
F*** man.
I just wanna see black men grow old yo.
