#28 D’Angelo, 'Voodoo' (2000)

D’Angelo’s sophomore album came 5 years after ‘Brown Sugar’ (#183). Recorded at Hendrix’s Electric Lady Studios in New York, this album previously came up when I reviewed Erykah Badu’s ‘Mama’s Gun’ (#158), as the two were recorded almost back-to-back sharing a lot of the same musicians, a collective known as the Soulquarians. Along with that record, it’s a landmark album in Neo-Soul. It’s more loose than its predecessor, funkier with more groove, care of the one and only Questlove.
