D`angelo was one of the top R&B crooners of the 90`s right up there with R. Kelly and Ginuwine, D’Angelo was known for his production and songwriting talents as much as for his vocal abilities, and often draws comparisons to his idols, Marvin Gaye, and Prince. D’Angelo was one of the most influential artists during the rise of the neo-soul movement.

His first two studio albums, Brown Sugar and Voodoo, have garnered much commercial and critical acclaim, and have been cited as “two of the most excellent and singular R&B albums of the past 15 years”  Rock critic Robert Christgau has dubbed him as “R&B Jesus“.

Then in 2000 he just disappeared, since then D’Angelo has conducted no interviews, live performances or released any new material, save for minor collaborations with other artists, and sporadic unfinished demos leaked to the internet. Its like his career went through the Y2K bug. Recently everyone has been talking about him again because he was arrested in the West Village of Manhattan by an undercover policewoman, after he mistook her for a prostitute and offered her $40 for oral sex.

The officer promptly busted him and searched his vehicle, which had $12,000 stashed inside! Which brings to light 3 important questions, If you`re walking around with 12k cash couldn’t you do better than 40 dollar hooker? And is it really that hard to hookup with some random chick when you are D`Angelo? Even Bret Michaels pulls in some hot tail, why cant you???
