He's Back! I Hope...

Much to many people's surprised delight, a video of singer-songwriter, D'Angelo performing in Stockholm... apparently today... surfaced and spread across the Internet, creating the equivalent of a social media fist-pump.

After the release of his second album, Voodoo in 2000 (the album that served as my soundtrack during college, and I still listen to 'til this day)- D'Angelo seemed to fall off the radar, much to everyone's disappointment. There were no interviews and no evidence of any performances or new material for a full-album or EP, beyond the collaborative projects he did with other artists... most notably,  Raphael Saadiq and Femi Kuti with Macy Gray for the remake of Fela Kuti's "Water Get No Enemy." Subsequent press found the talented artist plagued by substance abuse and legal issues. Needless to say, I'm beyond excited to see some recent progress from the singer as I'm a huge fan and hopefully this appearance in Stockholm is indicative of there being a new album on the horizon.

In the interim, check out his body of work from previous albums and peep his Stockholm performance below...
