D'Angelo Lecture (New York 2014) | Red Bull Music Academy

It’s been 14 years since neo-soul master D’Angelo released his opus of a sophomore LP, Voodoo, and fans worldwide are still waiting with baited breath at the prospect of what will follow it. Last year, during his Red Bull Music Academy lecture, close friend and collaborator Questlove said that 10 songs from that mysterious forthcoming album were mastered, and that it might drop in late 2013. It didn't. So, when will it? In his first ever public lecture – held at the Brookyln Museum, during the month-long Red Bull Music Academy NYC Festival 2014 – D’Angelo answered that question and discussed his inspirations, his work, and his thoughts on the legacy that was born from Voodoo.
