Editorial Review: Amazon.com's Best of 2000: Like Robin Hood working on a tip from Chuck D, D'Angelo has stolen back the soul that was missing from the just-add-water R&B scene. Voodoo is a simmering cauldron of sound, a magical collection. Stained with sweat, longing, and rage, this is an album with trouble on the brain. But it also includes sacred sweet nothings and rapturous raw rhythms to get you through the night. --Lizz Mendez Berry Amazon.com: Halfway through the languid midtempo ballad "Send It On" from D'Angelo's new sophomore effort, Voodoo, the young retro-soul maestro and band shift tempo and melody. It's a move so understatedly dramatic that it elicits comparisons not just to obvious touchstones Marvin Gaye and Al Green, but to the Jimi Hendrix of Axis: Bold as Love and Electric Ladyland. While Voodoo is hardly in a league with such major statements, it's a record inviting enough to attract repeated plays of its 78-minute length. As on his 1995 debut, Brown Sugar, D'Angelo covers a wide range of concerns--sex, home cooking, the destructive side of current street life--in a deceptively offhand manner. But he's a crafty craftsman: even a throwaway workout like "Chicken Grease" is blessed not only with a slinky groove and a guitar lick that deserves to be called just that, but bursts of Gaye-style vocal harmonies; the whole track, for all its retro flavor, ends up sounding like nothing else around. Throw in the blasts of anger that fire "Devil's Pie," the restatement of Bono's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" in "Greatdayindamornin'," and the complete takeover of Roberta Flack's "Feel Like Makin' Love," and Voodoo proves one jam that was well worth the nearly five-year wait. --Rickey Wright Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - how does it feel????this was a great follow up to brown sugar. i don't really have any favorites on this one. the whole cd is good to me. but i enjoy listening to How Does it Feel and just thinking about the video that he did to it. WOW! Rating:  - Unreal, incredible, worth every secondThis guy has so much talent it is mindboggling. Sexy, powerful, thoughtful, insightful, soulful music. I hope D'angelo is doing well in this nutty world... waiting for the next album. he always serves the best... Rating: - The Leader Of the Pack...Man when this album finally came out,it blew people away...Theres so many reasons "why" this album is classic, but lets just look at the facts, James Poyser, Questlove,Pino Pallidino, J-Dilla, Raphael Saaqiq, Roy Hargrove,Meth & Red,Dj Premier, Angie Stone (writing/background)and the Legendary Russel Elevado recording it all track for track @the infamous Electric Lady...Come on people, So, we dont hear a solid project from the man in years, ok. The media is plastered with news of drug addiction, rehab, personal issues, and his lable has lost faith in the man, along with countless rumors an unflattering pics on the internet...Now people want to condemn him. SHAME... First off lets think what R&B looked and sounded ... Read More: Rating: - Music loverThe CD was in great condition when I received it. It did take a little bit longer than mentioned as far as standard delivery. I've had this CD before so I knew what I was getting and of course I am very pleased with the product. Rating: - Masterpiece This is J-RE...I don't need to explain who I am. Read my review on Brown Suga. Anyways, I haven't read the other reviews nor do I care. This album is a Masterpiece. First album was a classic , Second album a masterpiece (and classic). D'angelo took this to another level. Im writing this review 7 years later and this CD still sounds fresh. He took it deeper on this album. More Grit, More Dirt. I felt like on this album D was like "I don't give a F***!" And that's what the fans want to hear. He definately cooked up some stew on this one. D thanks. These other catz out here is whack. Waiting for James River but whatever take your time. My advice to anyone is to read his insert...and what he is talking about is so true. I feel the same ... Read More: |
