piebaldify You should hear Kendrick Lamar - Complexion. Modern track with nice themes of black empowerment & heavy influence from this track’s bass line
Cant NOBODY Tell me the 90's is not the best Era of R&B, The Neo Soul Era of R&B is just different all together, and really this album kicked it off. My mom used to bump this CD on a regular.
@@livinlife8280 Kanye is definitely a musical genius as well as Raphael sadiqq. Just because you dislike Kanye does not mean you can discredit his work in the industry. They are two different artist in two different genres of music.
SO Agree they were Glorified back then... and before then Now.....its SAD with the difference Miss those days......D'Angelo has always been MY BOO!!!!!! :D Respect!
Imagine for 3 years yall getting triggered by a comment that I made 4 years ago 😩😭😂😂😂 hell I don't even remember this comment lol this was back in 2017 😩😭😂😂 yall are hilarious
Well I start it off I love my Lady Gloria!!! Without her I’m lost she pushes me to go further I had given up but God will make a way so thankful for my Lady bout to call her right now I can’t wait ✌🏾
Love it. Just good seeing our people vibin and enjoying each other. I wouldn't give up being an American brotha for anything. I love our women, our music, our culture, everything. Just something very uplifting about our music. Not a bunch of fake butts and hot-mess-looking sistas on screen. I love the chocolate love in this video.
I miss this era. The music and the way women carried themselves. So sick of the reality shows and social media which glorifies women half naked and plastic. This is a beautiful video real music real women

I just lost a childhood friend last night. She fought with everything that she had in her, but she was so tired. We called her lady because when she would play outside she never got dirty. Lord, You gave her her wings, when we weren't ready to release her and let her fly. Be with us Lord, and fly high Lady. Rest in Peace and Heaven. The kids are in good hands. Love Always, Mandy
94'!! I remember when this first came out! I swear every time I hear this makes me think of 94', Basketball courts, Chilling around the way, Stoops, that 90s love etc! This album is so essential!! D'angelo definitely brought a jazzy feel to Neo-Soul. I love dem cornrows and liplicking! 20 years later and Im still playing this!
BritBrat011 There were a lot of Naked women in 90s videos lol Back then there were layers to the music and everything did not have the same concept so there was both racthet and romantic rnb. Thats why the 90s was so damn great...it was diverse.
Nick Lee You beat me to the punch. Everyone tends to forget or not RESEARCH Uncle Luke and a couple of them. Back then, you had a diverse pool to choose whatever fish you wanted to consume.
@@jeremyalexander9761 Hell, the likes of Drake, Jay and Kayne won Grammy's in the dozens. But Public Enemy, Tupac, Nas, Rakim never won a single one. Grammy's are worthless to anyone with actual talent.
I been looking at this video lately,and that cvs sign keep catching my eye,it reminds me of 90s Midwest and current times since everything going back to the 90s,is the same sign still there?
I absolutely love it when I see youth get into good music such as this. Keep it going! It was so much Music and amazing artist back in the day.

I’m a 42 white guy who loved late 80s into 90s hip hop and rb. This was the shit in 96. Raphael Saadiq on the beat. I miss these days. If you have a chick you think of when this song comes on, you’re a lucky dude!
This is pure class, personified by music. D'Angelo was an underrated talent, and guys we need to take better examples from music like this. A real man treats his woman with love and respect!
From my high school years, I can definitely say we didn't TRULY understand how this was the end of the cassette era. Soon as CD's gained in popularity/accessibility, music like this started to disappear. We got grown folks music in high school, and we took it for granted. Damn it.
You trippin'. This album was part of the CD era. My mom had this on CD, and the CD era did not mess anything up. Just say that using CDs were a little challenging for you.
Powerful.. I remember the time when black men love and supported beautiful black woman. Now we barely see them in any videos today that makes me so sad.. Our music and culture was so powerful that you can see the soul and Spirit and energy what happened to all the love songs.
It is so good to see an intelligent comment on here for once. I knew all the "powers to be" were trying to destroy our race, just glad someone else gave us more insight
Thank you . I thought I was the only one who sees that their doing this on purpose . They are trying to keep black men separate from black women . They want us fighting each other . Fortunately I haven't fallen for that . I don't tolerate disrespect from black men but not all black men are like that . I check the black men who disrespect me . I see their hidden agenda though . I only date black men who love and respect black women . ✊🏿❤️
I'm a dad and I don't let my lil man listen to none of that shit on the radio. Strictly music that move your soul forreal forreal. One love to D Angelo. straight from Oakland.
You sound like me dude... I tell my wife all the time that when we're lucky enough to have children (I hope), I'll be insulating their impressionable little minds from all the dogshit on the radio and TV, anything else would be a travesty!! Strictly D'angelo, Tupac, Rakim, Nas, DITC, Bone Thugz, TLC, Naughty, Ras Kass etc..
They were. I wish my sisters get back to this again. The natural hair community is growing now we need to go back to wearing clothes and not being so loud and ghetto. I remember when sisters use to make the weave look like their hair smh
i wouldve been too young to been at this function but what i would give to embrace such a vibe of unity and just a wholesome good time. and to piggyback off of one the earlier posts when women was embraced as sistas not degraded as anything lower.. WHO STOLE THE SOUL.
When I first heard this, I ran and bought this cassette. I looked at the pics over and over while listening to DeAngelo words fantasizing I was his lady....Still my favorite song that he made....
I think a lot of us that are commenting on this channel were all in our teens when we first heard this song. What I love most about this song is the bass.
Lord I had this song all wrong. Until today I thought he said mighty fine lady. Back in the day I thought he said " youre my lady I can tell by looking at ya" but he says "I can tell their looking at us"
This whole album knocked from start to finish. Damn near 20 years later and it's still all good. My favorite is When We Get By. This cd was glued to my little portable cd player. I made a cute little step to this song. It's refreshing to see brothas dressed this way.
Remember when men used to be proud and pressed for their lady? They felt good to brag about her.... Now, they brag about the amount of side chicks they have.... What happened? Serious question...
*MAN I'M TRULY MISSING THE 90S RIGHT NOW! I STILL HAVE THE CD. I PLAYED THIS CONSTANTLY. I STILL KNOW THE WORDS. NOSTALGIA SETTING IN. BIG SHOT OUT TO D'ANGELO. 12-13-17* 👑🙏🏾💋👄🤙🏾💃🏾🕺🏾👩🏾🎤🎺🎻🥁🎶🎼🎷🎸🎹
This is actually my favorite song of all time. Might not be a popular number 1 to most but it's perfectly put together and has every element that's needed in any good music.
Wanna work with him? ran into quest love leaving the jimmy fallon show about a month ago I said where's D at in chesterfield, va. He said naw he in manhattan
And when this hit the radio, I was immediately into this artist. I loved this album so much, I bought 5 cds and gave the other 4 to friends I knew understood music and sound. To this day you can still rock the Brown Sugar album from beginning to end. 👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
There are some underrated underground artist I actually like today like The Internet they have great taste in music, they sound so old school and a mixture of neo soul, jazz, funk.
as soon as u hear the beat you start bobbin your head dancing
Laenicia Foreal 😂
My head want bobbin but my waist was movin
Yep🎵🎵🎵
Facts lol
Real talk, Raphael Saadiq killed this beat 🔥🔥
I still have my lady from that era,and she's still as beautiful as the day I met here.
B-Eazy Ron,B Good for you.I have to blame some of that on my women nowadays.They do different things now and there is no more behaving like a "lady".
Kim Wright This is so true, it's a shame that women took a hand in their own demise and now complaining about it.
Jo Rhodes ikr
B-Eazy Ron,B lucky man treat her right bruh
B-Eazy Ron,B respectable words my Don
Raphael Saddiq produced this and play the guitar on this and kills it
Michelle Branch I thought that was him
I didn't even notice that was him until today... crazy!
I was about to ask about that
And wrote it 😍
Yes indeed!!!👍✌
Your MY LADY! Not side chick....#IMissThe90's
TdashGUNZ. That's when music was real and hit your soul 🎶😄
TdashGUNZ hey how come men aren’t like this anymore though? This makes me very sad to see though!
skiddleebeepbop which one our u talking about though the man or the woman though?
kare franco yeah true to that one though!
"You're"=You are="You are/You're my lady". Not "Your".
I truly believe this is one of the coolest songs ever written. Raphael's bass and D's vocals are ridiculous!!
Video always takes me back to my younger days growing up in Richmond..Westover theater wit the dirty floors,Southside Plaza, chilling on Broad St.. Richmond back in those days was lit AF! Memories!
Southside plaza was lit that day lol
FYI that’s Dallas Austin on the bass
l love them together😍😍
I say that all the time!!!!! Facts!
D'Angelo is an R&B hero. Between him and Maxwell, they had the Male R&B Game on lock in the late 90's.
Dont forget kC and jojo !
Jodeci as well, d angelo was savage :) still he is.
MAXWELL IS SOOOO UNDER RATED I agree, he actually wrote and produced more songs for other people that most people know nothing about
Dont forget Joe
Richard West facts
that bass line though... pure sex.
piebaldify You should hear Kendrick Lamar - Complexion. Modern track with nice themes of black empowerment & heavy influence from this track’s bass line
piebaldify Loool
THATS RAPHAEL SADIQUE!! ON THAT BASS!! OF TONY TONI TONE!! FIRE!!!
D'angelo music is pure love and sex.And I love it.
Base line is banging
This beat is just so special
Sacred.
Raphael Saadiq.
extremely
pac freestyled of dis beat...The name of the track is you can’t fade me
Timeless music
Cant NOBODY Tell me the 90's is not the best Era of R&B, The Neo Soul Era of R&B is just different all together, and really this album kicked it off. My mom used to bump this CD on a regular.

Amazing happiness I cherish from the 80s and 90s!! Dancing in the clubs was everything!! ❤️
Naw New Jack Swing Era kicked it off, this guy came afterwards
This and.....Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite came a year later in 96'
...however this is the godfather of neo-soul
D'Angelo....1995 was the year.
Facts 🎉1000 this was my middle school soundtrack!!!
Raphael Saddiq doesn’t get the flowers that he deserves..This man is such a musical genius🌹🌹🔥🔥
💯
I was just saying the same thing 💯.. he'd be a real problem in Verzuz battle too, solo or w/ TTT. #DayOneSupporter
Completely agree with you. Raphael Sadiqq is a musical genius not that idiot Kanye that everyone keeps calling a genius.
@@livinlife8280 Kanye is definitely a musical genius as well as Raphael sadiqq. Just because you dislike Kanye does not mean you can discredit his work in the industry. They are two different artist in two different genres of music.
He produced this beat?
back when it wasn't "simp" behavior to declare your love for a woman.
What does simp mean? Is that a hood term?
Eric clapton
yeah but that's when we had a majority of real woman back then now we got anti social attention seeking self validating thots
Yeah and women took it for granted...and that's why it doesn't exist anymore😁
Shaleena Abron 😂😂 Simp behavior huh...
Women were glorified then, but they are ridiculed now such a shame
but do they only have themselves to blame ? ?
If you ask me, EVERYTHING was better then!
SO Agree they were Glorified back then... and before then Now.....its SAD with the difference Miss those days......D'Angelo has always been MY BOO!!!!!! :D Respect!
Aviaz X my thoughts exactly my Devine !! Who says that mow
Conah Dalton -- Exactly Women Period are not "Glorified" at all..... ONLY Predators of Disgust!
Raphael Saddiq was a straight beast for this production.
Just in case black women think we don't love them anymore, WE STILL DO 💙✊🏿 and will ALWAYS DO
Thank you ❤.

Thank you, brotha ❤.

+Mii4210 Yessss My Mom As Well . im 20 Too Heyyyy 90s Babies Lol
+MissDonniee '96 over here!
+Decebian Hunter RIGHT ON
Women seemed classier back then, looked more appropriate and approachable
u aint neva lied
agree
They were. I wish my sisters get back to this again. The natural hair community is growing now we need to go back to wearing clothes and not being so loud and ghetto. I remember when sisters use to make the weave look like their hair smh
this is before strippers took over us!
strippers?seriously. .
Raphael Saadiq is crazy talented
Back when songs was relaxing, PURE and just a VIBE I miss these days❤️
i wouldve been too young to been at this function but what i would give to embrace such a vibe of unity and just a wholesome good time. and to piggyback off of one the earlier posts when women was embraced as sistas not degraded as anything lower.. WHO STOLE THE SOUL.
wow...when women were considered attractive...with their clothes on!
i miss those days. And I love this song. Timeless
this was a time when music had something to say, and we all had a reason to listen..I listen to all the old school and 90s music..
Miss these days so pure and respectful
315 people need love in their lives ...
+michael turner 320 now hoes got they heart broken
Haters gona hate 580 smh
When I first heard this, I ran and bought this cassette. I looked at the pics over and over while listening to DeAngelo words fantasizing I was his lady....Still my favorite song that he made....
A lot of videos that cover the singers have satanic messages on them so unless you're satanic be very careful.
Bill Williams Thank you Bill...
Bill Williams y u always gotta be a hater. Y must u write such....can't u just hate from afar?????? Smh
This man is fine
Great song.
Love the color grading in the video.
Zane Smith Music l I love the man in the video
😢😢 i really miss these times😢😢😢😢😢😢❤
😔🙏
This will forever be one of my all-time favorite songs. Maybe it will always be my #1 male song! I have loved this from the first moment I heard it.
How old were you when you first heard this song?
Good question!
I was 16 years old when I first heard this in 1996 . I was in high school then. Today I'm 35.
I think a lot of us that are commenting on this channel were all in our teens when we first heard this song. What I love most about this song is the bass.
Reggie Rodriguez I was 21
Up until recently I thought he said "mighty fine lady", not "my divine lady" lol. Nonetheless, his music is divine.
I did too!
I was today years old when I found this out lol thanks
Thought he says both
Lord I had this song all wrong. Until today I thought he said mighty fine lady. Back in the day I thought he said " youre my lady I can tell by looking at ya" but he says "I can tell their looking at us"
Me too!👀
I miss when r&b was about love. Like this Not just some chick a dude met at the club to take home and f@&k then claim that he's in love.
Am I the only one here who thinks that D'angelo is one of the finest brothas ever?
U're not the only 1
I wish I was old enough back then to date those 90s women beauty classy not half naked I was born in the wrong era lol
This whole album knocked from start to finish. Damn near 20 years later and it's still all good. My favorite is When We Get By. This cd was glued to my little portable cd player. I made a cute little step to this song. It's refreshing to see brothas dressed this way.
.the beat break where it's just the drums and piano rift, is too Smoove to me. this song got me in trouble a couple times 😉
Christian Clarke THAT'S MY PART!
🙌 OKAAY! (Lachelle voice) Srry I had to borrow your trademark slogan.
My dad brought the CD back in 1996, he played it a few times I ended up keeping it. I still play the CD.
Raphael Saadiq , the ageless wonder. Classic!
Happy 49th Birthday D'Angelo!(Born February 11, 1974)😃🥳🎂🎉🎊🎈🎁🍾🥂👍🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Remember when men used to be proud and pressed for their lady? They felt good to brag about her.... Now, they brag about the amount of side chicks they have.... What happened? Serious question...
*MAN I'M TRULY MISSING THE 90S RIGHT NOW! I STILL HAVE THE CD. I PLAYED THIS CONSTANTLY. I STILL KNOW THE WORDS. NOSTALGIA SETTING IN. BIG SHOT OUT TO D'ANGELO. 12-13-17*
👑🙏🏾💋👄🤙🏾💃🏾🕺🏾👩🏾🎤🎺🎻🥁🎶🎼🎷🎸🎹
King d'angelo! That is all. We need more music like this and artists with a real message. Salute.
Yasss!
I remember first seeing this video(not when it came out)and thinking,"I bet his girl up in there chilling".
😂😂😂
lmaooo
TJJohnson lol
TJJohnson who is his lady
She was "up in there chilling"!
This is my shiiiiit! I'll take this over any of the crap they release these days...I'm only 25 but I was brought up on real music!!!
Rochelle Alford I salute you girl
Remember to thank the ones who did you a great favour of raising you on GREAT MUSIC
This video put a smile to my face , if only they were still like this .
This is actually my favorite song of all time. Might not be a popular number 1 to most but it's perfectly put together and has every element that's needed in any good music.
back before we were contoured and sew ined to perfection... love the women of this generation so much more !!!
man RNB was so MUCH better in the 90s an early 2000s!now its just not the same...
This and Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite...which came out a year later in 96'
...however D'Angelo is the Godfather of neo-soul. 1995 was the year ✌🏿
My first cousin Mr D’angelo Archer now also known as The Black Messiah!👊🏾🙌🏾👐🏽🤲🏾✊🏾

Wanna work with him? ran into quest love leaving the jimmy fallon show about a month ago I said where's D at in chesterfield, va. He said naw he in manhattan
we need more music from him, tell him we miss and love him ❤️
How does this only have 5.2 million views?? I'm confused!!
I had to revisit after watching the recent Verzuz ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
And when this hit the radio, I was immediately into this artist. I loved this album so much, I bought 5 cds and gave the other 4 to friends I knew understood music and sound. To this day you can still rock the Brown Sugar album from beginning to end. 👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
tooo good!! 90's was the best B!! damm #tight
Shorty in this video was everything!
Born in 1992 and started falling in love with D’Angelo in my early 20s 😭
They don't make them like this anymore..........truly original rhythm and blues
The new school ain't fuccin with our era of music team 80s baby
There are some underrated underground artist I actually like today like The Internet they have great taste in music, they sound so old school and a mixture of neo soul, jazz, funk.
