I am here listening to D'Angelo's latest album 'The Black Messiah' and it made me think...he is channeling a lot of early Prince...particularly 'Prayer"...what are your thoughts?




Might very well be my favorite album of all time when it's all said and done.

I definitely heard Prince in "The Charade" when he premiered it live in 2012. Those sitar patches! And the claps! Like a love child outta ATWIAD and the first NPG-era albums.

I didn't really hear Prince in "Prayer" until this week, actually. I was making a beat using Darling Nikki and adding other PR samples and I was like "OH! THAT'S the vibe D was channeling!"

Here's the beat, btw, dedicated to 2pac and Afeni (RIP)
