There's an Australian band called Hiatus Kaiyote who play some pretty sweet neo soul music. Bunch of whiteys but they kill it. Also you've got Thundercat and Flying Lotus who are doing some dope ass shit.
I Agree NO lables. I was trying to explain what the music media was calling the artist at the time. They were saying this soul is different from the soul your parents was listening to. However, its just good music is the truth of the matter.
@@robdarichmusic he actually past that and his drug problems and still out their making great music with a band he formed called the Vanguard... He won a Grammy for a album he did with them just the other day.. He is doing well.
Kalima Yup. The Neo Soul era was truly special: D'Angelo, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Rahsaan Patterson, Angie Stone, Maxwell, Bilal, Music Soulchild, and others. Good ole days. I miss them so much.
I don't care what any of y'all say, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Erykah Badu, and Jill Scott are the four amigos of the Neo-Soul movement with some others included there two.
@@Ava_ItoI'm old school before I knew what the turn 'ate that' meant but he definitely did that. I got the cd when it came and still have it.I worn it out😅
H Az D’Angelo is one of my all time favorite artist! I also agree that he’s in a class of his own and one of the pioneers of Neo Soul/R&B. But do you know how many classic singles and albums that Prince has, how many instruments he played, how many songs he’s wrote/composed and produced for himself and SO many others?! So with D’Angelo being this “student of the game” as you say, I’m sure Prince played a MAJOR part in it. Also DMV ALL DAY🤟🏾(for the other ppl in this section)
This is all about a chocolate covered dream... Ctfu. This music is about the beauty in black people. You must not be able to hear music for what it is... That might just be a thing only "niggaz" can do. Lol.
Shidoshi Tanaka You've probably never had a conversation with a black person in your life. I know you're getting off on this. You're welcome and goodbye.
It’s sad how the music business did him got em hooked on dope then dropped em... Played this cd so much I had to go to TOWER RECORDS to buy another one because started to skip
Neo Soul never bigger than it was in the 90s with the likes of Jill Scott, Erykah badhu, D'Angelo, India Arie, Maxwell, Angie Stone all fantastic artists
The way he looked at the woman with the short hair ohhhh my gawd 😍😍😍 having a man that looks at you like that damnnnn marry him 😍😍😍 dear universe you hear my prayers LOL
I’m 33, I’ll be 34 pretty soon, and with all on the radio, I still come back to this, the 90s were golden, the music, the videos, the fashion, the beauty, the access to money, the Clinton Christmas’s when everyone got gifts, it was excess and minimalism at the same time, I miss it ❤️❤️❤️
Today’s R&B could never ❤ Jermaine Dupri made a very valid point. The music doesn’t sound the same because these kids don’t go to church anymore. That organ on this song is allll black church 😂
No matter if it's a D'angelo song I'm listening to or a music video I'm watching, my reaction is always "black is beautiful". I just love how he effortlessly exemplify that notion in everything he does.
A very ignorant, racist based, point of view. How about, "art is beautiful" and recognize the fact that sound communication, is, and has been, the bridge that transcends, race
I dare BLACK people to not engage with the idiot above me. We've been going through way too much in life...for centuries...to expel any energy on degenerates.
Agreed and glad to say I experienced the Neo Soul era it first hand as it was introduced and unfolded cause we never heard anything like it! I don’t think that era of music gets the respect it deserves! Plus this video just showcased how talented he is all those instruments he can play and this was before the “How Does It Feel Days” when the new fans only cared bout his looks when this man is a beast musically and vocally! 💯💪🏽🐐👑🔊🎶🔥🥰
Come come now if this doesn't stir your soul 30 years later then sumthn isn't on point. Loved his vibe back then&I have an ever growing respect for his talents. Nuff said!
Mannn This Right Here Aint Doin Nothing But Making me Proud Of Being Black And Thanking God He Gave Us All Different Ways To Express Ourselves....Deangelo Has The Voice Of An ANGEL.....
+Juanni Yes it is. Soul is a branch of rhythm and blues. All genres of black music are technically branches of rhythm and blues because their roots are planted in the blues, which began during slavery and really took off after Reconstruction. Basically, adapt intricate rhythm to blues melodies and sensibilities and you have rhythm and blues. Therefore, D'Angelo was technically doing R&B, and so were all the other "neo soul" artists of that time. Both neo soul and 90s (and early 2000s*) R&B are appropriate terms to describe that movement.
Did anybody notice the beautiful Claudia Jordan in this video? Wow.. This time period was everything. Good music will never go out of style. We could listen to this 50 yrs from now & it would sound just as good.
A blind man can tell you it’s D,Angelo when he hears the first sound that comes to his ears. This is a unmistakable without a doubt one of the greatest videos ever to show this guy as a Musical Genius.
Glad he kept the Aboriginal Indigenous women in the video , because the song is about us you know, loving the soulful sound and feeling!!! Thanks .Wish we had more song like this.💖💖💖💖💖🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀
2021 who's out there listening this Classic Hit. D'angelo is so Smooth with all his tracks I just had to come and listen again. Not tht I didn't have this Album lolol but I lost it and wht a lost it is.
I love this song by him!!! It’s one of my favorite old school songs, D’Angelo is one of my favorite singers!!! ❤😊❤😊 This is one of my favorite songs by D’ANGELO!!! ❤❤😊😊🎶 😍 🤩 🎵
Neo Soul continues being my favorite iteration of R&B music. No disrespect to Trap Rap (Boom Bap my jam tho) or Bubblegum Pop but it’s sad that’s all the radio & internet pushes now. It was so dope to have many forms of mainstream black artists & mainstream black music in the States when I first came here. I remember those days. Salutations from the Dominicans 🇩🇴 in NJ.
Being born in 90 flat, this whole album change my life as I aged but I was 5 when this drop the streets were rockin!!!!let me tell you this album will be my favor and to me d Angelo is hands down my favor rnb artist of all time.
I don't care how you try to label this form of Soul, it's an extension of old school. It hasn't disappeared, mainstream just isn't promoting Soul music. Be patient, Soul music never dies, it'll be back on top.
Neo Soul went as quick as it came. The music is gold. No one carried the flame of D'Angelo, Jill Scott, Angie Stone, and Erykah Badu.
There's an Australian band called Hiatus Kaiyote who play some pretty sweet neo soul music. Bunch of whiteys but they kill it. Also you've got Thundercat and Flying Lotus who are doing some dope ass shit.
Would you consider Musiq Soulchild as neo-soul?
Ww Koh yes sir
You say 'this music should not have a label' and then guess what, you go and label it?????? Go figure
I Agree NO lables. I was trying to explain what the music media was calling the artist at the time. They were saying this soul is different from the soul your parents was listening to. However, its just good music is the truth of the matter.
Dude actually played all the instruments on his album, crazy talented
I was just thinking that what happened to him
@@MsDisneylandlover he was locked up for the longest
@@robdarichmusic he actually past that and his drug problems and still out their making great music with a band he formed called the Vanguard... He won a Grammy for a album he did with them just the other day.. He is doing well.
Dude extremely talented
Right very talented love me some D’Angelo! 💪🏽🐐👑🔊🎶🗣🎹🥁🎸🔥💯🥰
Still vibing in 2024💥
👍🏿
Before I went deaf, I enjoyed this vibe to the max. So cool, the low down with Dangelo was as cool as it gets.
❤️
❤️🙏🏻 God bless you
❤️
❤❤❤❤
God bless you and prayers to you sir! He really is as talented as it gets!❤
In my opinion...this jam is the COLDEST cut on his album. Jazzy...funky...classy...sexy. Can't beat it. This is my fav of all his songs.
Wait... Did you hear Higher?? That one is amazing too, it just doesn't have a video.
ICE COLD
I kinda agree with you
Agreed.
I agree 👍 💯 🙆♂️ did you come from heaven to break my heart. Tear Jerker 😢 🌹
The record labels stopped pushing positive hip hop, this was the next wave to go. Blame your government and private prisons
Definitely agree 💯! I'm really disappointed with this new music it's trash. It's devolved......
I agree. Another reason why music is so awful now is because free music programs were removed from public schools.
FACTS
What an amazing era of black art. I love us!
Kalima Yup. The Neo Soul era was truly special: D'Angelo, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Rahsaan Patterson, Angie Stone, Maxwell, Bilal, Music Soulchild, and others. Good ole days. I miss them so much.
True R&B 🎶
So true
I don't care what any of y'all say, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Erykah Badu, and Jill Scott are the four amigos of the Neo-Soul movement with some others included there two.
& Raphael Saadiq
The smoothest thing about this video is that this brother played and sung all of the instruments and vocals....💯
Just like PRINCE
He ate it up! Yes he did! ❤❤❤😊
Damn!!! D'Angelo IS THE finest brother out there!
@@Ava_ItoI'm old school before I knew what the turn 'ate that' meant but he definitely did that. I got the cd when it came and still have it.I worn it out😅
AND WROTE
Underrated!!! This man should be praised .... generational talent
oy
He has been praised plenty. Sly, however, is the one who should get more praise, actually.
He's praised, that knows
He deserves the star not mcclully
shiiiit he was never underrated!!!
DeAngelo is a beast this whole album is a classic. He is urban version of prince with the hip hop swag Richmond Va stand up.
Richmond!
H Az Don’t disrespect the legends like that. You’re TRIPPIN if you think D’Angelo didn’t listen to/get inspiration from Prince.
H Az D’Angelo is one of my all time favorite artist! I also agree that he’s in a class of his own and one of the pioneers of Neo Soul/R&B. But do you know how many classic singles and albums that Prince has, how many instruments he played, how many songs he’s wrote/composed and produced for himself and SO many others?! So with D’Angelo being this “student of the game” as you say, I’m sure Prince played a MAJOR part in it. Also DMV ALL DAY🤟🏾(for the other ppl in this section)
Yep...💃
@H Az lmao prince is a better musician...even d'angelo will tell you😂
I love how a black woman is always his love interest. This is a strong black man 😍
H Az Amen Brotha.
Shidoshi Tanaka
And still... You're here.
That says a lot about you. You should respect your creator's though. You wouldn't be here at all if it weren't for us "niggaz". Show God some respect.
This is all about a chocolate covered dream... Ctfu. This music is about the beauty in black people. You must not be able to hear music for what it is... That might just be a thing only "niggaz" can do. Lol.
Shidoshi Tanaka You've probably never had a conversation with a black person in your life. I know you're getting off on this. You're welcome and goodbye.
THIS IS NOT A COVER SONG!!! This is original...give him his due...
G
Who said this was a cover song? I must've missed that one.
Tyrone W. James I think he might be mistaken for cruisin’
You right... the guy played all his own instruments on a God damn classic. That is incredible.
🥃🚬
Damn this man is talented, voice aside, look at all those damn instruments!
Kelia Morrison very instrumental man
@@luvlowkeyvlogsss6654 he did this album on his own, he was in his early 20s
It’s sad how the music business did him got em hooked on dope then dropped em... Played this cd so much I had to go to TOWER RECORDS to buy another one because started to skip
@@lashawnedwards1783 nah he did that himself he had a choice to not use drugs but he did.
@@flex5752 If he didn’t take the drugs they gave, he wouldn’t have as half of the opportunities he has received.
This album is an all-time classic. It came out when I was a sophomore in high school and is a standout in the soundtrack of my teen years.
90's 2000's Rnb untouchable 🗣🔥🔥🔥
Neo Soul never bigger than it was in the 90s with the likes of Jill Scott, Erykah badhu, D'Angelo, India Arie, Maxwell, Angie Stone all fantastic artists
2019...whos still bumpin this??? i sure as hell am
phlex0 August 22 2019 and beyond

MEE!!
Guilty
Me it's always a true soul god 🤩!
Still vibin' to this in 2023. Who else?? Love!

He really took us to church with those opening chords and harmonies tho.
One of the best openings I've heard
Took us to church at 3:32 as well, damn
yes Lawd
He really did tho didn't he. Lol
There's D'Angelo, then there's all other human beings.
This man's vocals are beyond amazing.
My favorite D'angelo song
This and Cruising
Yes Sir. Mine Too, This & Lady.
Mine too
The way he looked at the woman with the short hair ohhhh my gawd 😍😍😍 having a man that looks at you like that damnnnn marry him 😍😍😍 dear universe you hear my prayers LOL

Pay phones...remember those?! 🤣🤣🤣 feels so loooooooong ago.
Tell me about it!!!!
This man is a genius
Today’s R&B could never ❤ Jermaine Dupri made a very valid point. The music doesn’t sound the same because these kids don’t go to church anymore. That organ on this song is allll black church 😂
One of the greatest albums of the last 20 years... it will never go out of style..
D'Angelo's persona is so sensual and smooth. This is definitely one of many classics.
The harmony in this song is on 10.. Love it❤
💯.holler back
No matter if it's a D'angelo song I'm listening to or a music video I'm watching, my reaction is always "black is beautiful". I just love how he effortlessly exemplify that notion in everything he does.
yup..I feel you on that...
So true!
A very ignorant, racist based, point of view. How about, "art is beautiful" and recognize the fact that sound communication, is, and has been, the bridge that transcends, race
I dare BLACK people to not engage with the idiot above me. We've been going through way too much in life...for centuries...to expel any energy on degenerates.
Chump, you are the problem, you cant be my judge. Just a weak link blamer with a societal grudge.

Here 2024🙌🏽🙌🏽❤
Summer 2024….check in!
This was the REAL ERA OF LOVE, SOUL & R & B
Agreed and glad to say I experienced the Neo Soul era it first hand as it was introduced and unfolded cause we never heard anything like it! I don’t think that era of music gets the respect it deserves! Plus this video just showcased how talented he is all those instruments he can play and this was before the “How Does It Feel Days” when the new fans only cared bout his looks when this man is a beast musically and vocally! 💯💪🏽🐐👑🔊🎶🔥🥰
I would give anything for music to go back to this
Come come now if this doesn't stir your soul 30 years later then sumthn isn't on point. Loved his vibe back then&I have an ever growing respect for his talents. Nuff said!
Omg a young Claudia Jordan 😍
Damn Dangelo is a gift from heaven ❤️😎
I wouldn't know how to contain myself with all of those D'angelos in one place especially if they didn't have any shirts on 😍😍😍
@courtney mcrae I don’t wear shirts
Instant pregnancy
You and those dreamin’ eyes of YOURS!!!😉😉😉😉
I'll take every "version" of D'angelo!
+Sonja Mak fareal! like i just saw him in a show last June and brutha STILL has it going on! :)
+LolaBunnay lucky!!!
heck yeah dangelo
wootwoot
where are you??
2024 still a vibe❤
GOOD GRIEF...WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO R&B?? MISS THIS :(
@H Az ro James is one
black americans are not creating their own art anymore. A lot of black adjacent folks doing it. thats what happened...
Ghost busters sucked it up in their machine.
@@ChangedUpNowWhat 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of my favorite D’Angelo songs ever !!! 🎧 🎶 🎵 ❤️ 😍 🤩 ❤❤😊❤😊❤😊
3:32 That electric guitar breakdown always gets me!
Some good shit, saw this comment right as the vid reached 3:32
Yup got that Wes Montgomery smoothness
When you're literally a whole vibe! Him and that Brian McKnight's are 2 of the most talented men
this man can sing a menu...he's beautiful #Aquarius
hold this W
Lol 💯
Okk!! Could sing the words to me i dont like you.and I'd sit mesmerized and ask him to sing it again lol.
All natural beauties in the vid 👍🏾🎶
Man, Neo Soul needs a D'Angelo, Lucky Daye collab! 🔥
I sing this to my Kids.. I switch the lyrics up a bit.. This song knocks babies out lmao!! D'Angelo is One of the Great Ones
Lol ...So true tho
Safia Mohammed Till this day!!!
Lol I feel u....I've been in a d angelo mood lately...that voice
True... my 20 year old was conceived to this album.
yr a good da da lol
Here after the Angie Stone interview on Cocktails with Queens! Much respect Angie & D'Angelo we love you both!😊❤
The guy made a legendary album where he played all the instruments... plus he cracked a yo mama joke on himself.
Time for D to make a new album-long overdue!! 💘 💋
Classic masterpiece. I miss these days in music.
I could literally listen to this song all day. I'm not even exaggerating
I know right over and over
Back when D'Angelo was smoking that good weed😂
who wasn't in the 90s!!
facts!
That weed led to other stuff. He's a talented brotha. Old people call it the Devils 🎶 music. Look where it leads you...
On the regular
Me And Those Dreaming Eyes Of Mine!!! That's A Soulful Song!!! ❤❤❤❤
Deangelo is a musical prodigy. Waiting for him to break free!
Neo soul was a powerful sound, it was a beautiful sound of the soul, classic material timeless charters
It was 95, I was around 12 or 13 and I was in love with this CD.
I was 16 and so in love with Dangelo
Absolute classic
Lord have mercy this is one fine man ....
Why isn’t this music EVERYWHERE???
Mannn This Right Here Aint Doin Nothing But Making me Proud Of Being Black And Thanking God He Gave Us All Different Ways To Express Ourselves....Deangelo Has The Voice Of An ANGEL.....
I miss black MEN in this fashion, perfection...
I miss 90's rnb
neo soul*
+Juanni Same thing.....
Judaea Bellamy not true

Judaea Bellamy You have a point, but mine is only that I prefer being more specific when it comes to denominations of genres. That's all.
A 80s baby enjoy this neo soul jam in 2023! I miss this era! R&B, Neo-Soul, Hip-Hop, Rap was golden! This era could never...
Just discovering D'Angelo and I'm FLOORED!! What a phenomenal artist!!! I hope he makes a comeback. Would love to hear and see him live!
Did anybody notice the beautiful Claudia Jordan in this video? Wow.. This time period was everything. Good music will never go out of style. We could listen to this 50 yrs from now & it would sound just as good.

Slept on this guy for way too long. Thank you D'Angelo
One of the most talented ones that ever did "it"
This man here was a blessing to music. Love D'Angelo
This whole album is heavenly
Glad he kept the Aboriginal Indigenous women in the video , because the song is about us you know, loving the soulful sound and feeling!!! Thanks .Wish we had more song like this.💖💖💖💖💖🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀🙋♀

2021 who's out there listening this Classic Hit. D'angelo is so Smooth with all his tracks I just had to come and listen again. Not tht I didn't have this Album lolol but I lost it and wht a lost it is.
This was by far my favorite era of music
"Wishing my fantasies soon become a reality...'' ooooh !!! Amazing what you can imagine!
I love this song by him!!! It’s one of my favorite old school songs, D’Angelo is one of my favorite singers!!! ❤😊❤😊
This is one of my favorite songs by D’ANGELO!!! ❤❤😊😊🎶 😍 🤩 🎵
This is a absolute banger speakers 🔊 knocking on this song
Yea that thump sound with the little guitar riff is sexually dangerous
D'Angelo you are a true artist. I appreciate your music even more so as time goes on💕💕💕
My favorite vocalist of all time right now, D'Angelo is amazing!
Neo Soul continues being my favorite iteration of R&B music. No disrespect to Trap Rap (Boom Bap my jam tho) or Bubblegum Pop but it’s sad that’s all the radio & internet pushes now. It was so dope to have many forms of mainstream black artists & mainstream black music in the States when I first came here. I remember those days. Salutations from the Dominicans 🇩🇴 in NJ.
This was my jam! D'angelo is such a talented artist.
one of those songs you reminisce on while closing your eyes snapping your fingers and singing it word for word.... i adore this song...
Being born in 90 flat, this whole album change my life as I aged but I was 5 when this drop the streets were rockin!!!!let me tell you this album will be my favor and to me d Angelo is hands down my favor rnb artist of all time.
First school girl crush💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾❤
This dude has the best vibe ever
Timeless ❤❤❤

Who is here in 2024 to see how classy Claudia Jordan was as a video girl????❤
Lmao me asf and yea letting a man from a club get you in a telephone booth 🤭is the epitome of “ classy”
Beautiful harmony all by himself.... wish he still made music
he do ua-cam.com/video/IfXjdRvzqmQ/v-deo.html
This is what I’m talking about
A genius. My all time favorite artist.
The bass ughhh I love this song so much. Took me back to that era and I miss it
5th Sept 2021. A forever fan of D'Angelo. Love everything about his musicianship. Beautiful soul.
Classic underrated album the whole thing beginning to end...
I was a teenager when this came out and just started playing music. Mind. Blown.
yo! Dee, Prince has passed on to a greater plain, were you at Dee! You need to carry on the touch.
Abraham Jackson It seems as if Eric Benet is doing a fine job picking up the slack.
Abraham Jackson And now, he stands unshaken
I don't care how you try to label this form of Soul, it's an extension of old school. It hasn't disappeared, mainstream just isn't promoting Soul music. Be patient, Soul music never dies, it'll be back on top.
