One of the things about D'Angelo is that he made RECORDS: Beautiful, fully imagined listening experiences; no skips. Such an astonishing artist.

I specifically remember dude focusing on Me & Those Dreaming Eyes Of Mine. I knew some oldies, Heatwave, Intruders, Delfonics. But that was oldies music. Had never heard a contemporary artist pull that off. No R&B singer or group was doing that. Hip Hop touched on it w samples but… nah. Different.

I knew the single, and it was cool. But Dreaming Eyes? S/D/MF? His version of Cruising? It was on from there on out

first time I heard, like really heard him, I was in this random older cat’s apt. passing around some Seagrams. Pretty sure it was a school night. Should not have been there by any reasonable measure. But we were talking music. he put on Brown Sugar and was like nah man listen to this. really listen.

I had really hoped we’d get another one from him. Selfish maybe. But I did hope for it.
