F*** man wish I could’ve seen the tour

makes you wonder if he was powering through his condition to have it ready in case the day ever came like Chadwick doing all those movies I hope we get more details

speaking of Chadwick, his wife is an exceptional singer. glad she’s able to express her pains through it

Tag team s***

Tell em

d’angelo is a massive perfectionist so i’m not sure whether he had it in the tuck and it was ready to go. hopefully whenever his family and friends feel comfortable to speak on it i hope that they tell us there was a finished album. this song cool thanks for linking

has the potential to be his Blackstar, even tho that dropped right before Bowie passed

bro this man released 1 album in the last 25 years of his life

ofc announcing an album immediately after he passes is gonna raise some eyebrows

“I don’t like Questlove”

Bro he’s literally all over voodoo and black messiah, those albums wouldn’t be the same without him

The album hasn’t been officially announced, and his comments line up with what we’ve heard which is that he completed an album just before his death, it’s not like quest is the only person to relay this info

That’s not why I dislike him

Dude hadn’t put out music for literally YEARS before his death. I refuse to believe that now that he’s dead there’s apparently a project that he was ready to drop. This is clearly forced and if they do drop this posthumous album, I hope to god they give it the love it deserves.

Except anyone following D’Angelo knows that years before his death we heard he was making good progress on a new album

Well duh. But the timing of this is bullshit lol. Whether he was making good progress or not I just hope they don’t pump out the album.

I get the reaction to this, but Quest was with him at his death bed and prior apparently. I'm sure this was discussed, especially since his family is with it.

Nah he was deep into a new project, there’s been murmurs for years beyond Questlove saying it posthumously.

Knowing how much of a perfectionist this man was, any posthumous work would feel in poor taste

To add to that, true artists by nature are very fickle

Knowing D’s tendencies it’s very possible that whatever he put together could’ve very well been mostly scrapped at the eleventh hour

I just really don’t believe in dropping anything posthumously as a complete body of work without the green light from the artist themselves

Yup

And I don’t care what the story they sell is either. They can tell me it was finished i don’t care

it does feel way too soon for a posthumous album but if d'angelo really planned to put out a new project with a new tour questlove would be the one to know and honor dee's wish.

2014 documentary said hë was working on a third album. i can imagine he’d have finished by now even with how perfectionist he is with his art and the craft hë took with it

Having heard some of his demos before, they'd still be better than most people's catalogues. I want them
