Remembering D'Angelo
Today we’re remembering the Grammy-winning R&B and soul singer D’Angelo. The musician’s family confirmed in a statement today that he died following a prolonged battle with cancer at age 51. Back in 2017, we did a deep dive on D’Angelo’s 1995 debut album “Brown Sugar,” which some say marked the birth of the term "neo-soul." In tribute to D’Angelo, we dug deep into the “Q” archives to bring you this guide to “Brown Sugar” by music historian Jason King.
