Summary: 2001-07-08 00:00:00 This is a really fantastic album. I appreciate it so much more since I saw D'Angelo interviewed and he said how much Prince means to him and that the Voodoo album was in homage to him. You can really hear the Prince influence.I think D'Angelo really puts the groundwork that Prince laid in the 80's to use in creating a very "today" sounding album. This is modern soul music at its best.

Summary: 2001-01-21 00:00:00 I am a musician. I come from a long line of soulaquarians. I will forever embellish my soul with his words, his sweet expressions of poetry. You have enlivened my heart, my soul and my mind. I am ebracing this stimulus readily. Please D forever remain a soul that is free...for you, for us, for we....from your fellow ras/soulaquarian/moon/okayplayer...the embodiment of estrogen power...the light...sunshine...play on, play on.

Summary: 2001-01-03 00:00:00 What a CD! I bought this album 7 months ago and still play it nearly everyday. The hype is true-D'Angelo is the heir to Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye before him. A few tracks are very danceable but most are slow, smooth and soothing. My favorite track is "The Rout."

Summary: 2000-12-20 00:00:00 I really surprised myself in liking this CD because I usually don't like R&B artists. Although the track "Untitled" was the most popular song played on the radio, I bought the CD for the track, "Up & Down," featuring Red Man and Method Man. D'Angleo's sensual voice is perfect for a rainy day or late night insomniacs. His voice reminises that of Prince, yet he adds an individual funk that sets him apart from the rest.

Summary: 2000-12-12 00:00:00 how could anyone give this a rating of less then 5? firstly you cannot compare the two albums because they are so different and show how he has matured and experimented with the music. however, voodoo is no worse or better than brown sugar - they are both fantastic. the man is an extremely talented musician and songwriter as well as performer and no recording does him justice. it was an amazing experience to see him live and no other live performance thet i've seen can compare to it. voodoo is raw and funky, but smooth and soulful at the same time. i think that only shallow people who cannot possibly appreciate real music or talent would dislike this.

Summary: 2000-12-05 00:00:00 To follow up on his first album, this album was not as good. Although, he had more songs on this album, they were not as banging as the 10 tracks on his very first album. Overall, Voodoo is an album that I would recommend to others.

Summary: 2000-11-26 00:00:00 D'Angelo is an artist who emcompasses what music is and should be about. In this age of materialistic commercialism he focuses on issues that are real and truthful. His music is both recorded and played live. Not many artists these days have the talent to work with other musicians. Most music is highly synthesized and artificial. He continues to be a presence that both influences and changes the music industry. Like the some of the artists before him Hendrix, Coltrane, Charlie Parker, Billie Holiday, Nina Simone and some of the musicians who are influential today Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu..he has stretched and redefined the boundaries of music.
