Black Messiah (Vinyle)

D'Angelo's long-awaited third album — fourteen years after Voodoo — is a dense, politically charged record that arrived at a moment of acute racial crisis in America and sounded like a response to it. Questlove's polyrhythmic drumming, Pino Palladino's elastic bass, and D'Angelo's layered vocals create something as urgent and disorienting as it is musically ravishing. 2LP edition.
