R&B singer D’Angelo dies at 51




I don’t know if this forum really follows R&B. I remember D’Angelo from, the 1990s. Brown sugar was a big hit back in the day. Sad he died so young. Apparently he was in hospice with pancreatic cancer. He kind of fell off after since personal and legal troubles. He was considered a innovative artist for the genre.

Him, Lauryn Hill, Macy Gray, Angie Stone were basically their own subgenre of R&B

I admit that I wasn't the biggest fan, but I respected that he and those artists did something different as opposed to more mainstream R&B acts like Guy, Jodeci, New Edition, R Kelly and such.

Yes. "D'Angelo V" will always be the scientific name of the ab muscles that looks like your chest is pointing to your dick.

All cancer is bad, but man, Pancreatic Cancer is easily the worst. That's awful news.

I liked some of his songs in the 1990s. RIP.
