D'Angelo

Lo, he rises again! As far as comebacks go, this is a big one. Soul sensation D'Angelo sent ripples up and down the charts in the late ’90s with his uniquely crisp, sexy take on R&B, as evidenced by 2000 album Voodoo. But stardom—or at least being screamed about as a sex symbol—sat uncomfortably with the singer, and he withdrew completely from the public eye. Now he's back with a new album (due any day) produced by longtime associate Questlove, who'll be on hand here. We've seen D'Angelo play a couple of thrilling small shows in the past year, and this outdoor biggie should be quite something.
