Fourteen years (wow&#8230;.it&#8217;s been that long) after his 2000 opus <strong>Voodoo<\/strong>, the 40-year-old neo-soul singer and his band The Vanguard present a 12-track LP entirely recorded analog on two-inch tape. Revolving around the subjects of love and politics, Black Messiah features contributions from Q-Tip, Kendra Foster of Funkadelic, and Questlove of The Roots.<\/p>\n<p>The album\u2019s lead single \u201cReally Love\u201d will be serviced to radio on Monday.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot every song on this album is politically charged (though many are), but calling this album Black Messiah creates a landscape where those songs can live to the fullest,\u201d explains D\u2019Angelo when speaking about the album title and theme of the record. \u201cBlack Messiah is not one man. It\u2019s a feeling that, collectively, we are all that leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Available for purchase now on iTunes, you can stream the album in full courtesy of Spotify.<\/p>\n<p>D\u2019Angelo \u2013 Black Messiah (Tracklisting):<\/p>\n<p>1. \u201cAin\u2019t That Easy\u201d<br \/>\n2. \u201c1000 Deaths\u201d<br \/>\n3. \u201cThe Charade\u201d<br \/>\n4. \u201cSugah Daddy\u201d<br \/>\n5. \u201cReally Love\u201d<br \/>\n6. \u201cBack in the Future (Part I)\u201d<br \/>\n7. \u201cTill It\u2019s Done (Tutu)\u201d<br \/>\n8. \u201cPrayer\u201d<br \/>\n9. \u201cBetray My Heart\u201d<br \/>\n10. \u201cThe Door\u201d<br \/>\n11. \u201cBack in the Future (Part II)\u201d<br \/>\n12. \u201cAnother Life\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Finally &#8230; D&#8217;Angelo has returned.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8250,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[303,807,938],"class_list":["post-8249","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-dangelo","tag-matrix","tag-ohsodj"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7qLKy-293","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ohsodj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/d-angelo.png?fit=250%2C251&ssl=1","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/8250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
