d'angelo aint no marvin gaye.. d'angelo is good but he aint no marvin gaye not him or any other soul singer today.. but he has only released 2 cd's in 5 years.. when marvin first came out he had back to back cd's the first 2 years and two cd release in the third..

dig

Can i get a witness - 1963
How sweet it is - 1964
Aint that peculiar AND I'll be doggone - 1965

okay so those 3 cd's weren't his prime work but ...

whats going on - 1971
trouble mand - 1972
lets get it on - 1973
i want you - 1976
Here my dear - 1978
sexual healing - 1982

not to mention the endless duo's that he did with tammi terrell, kim weston, ona page, diana ross ect...... the man was pushing out cd's every 9 months like he was giving birth! and they were all slamming... in addition to this he managed to get married twice, have a family, get hooked on drugs, and finally get shot and killed...

D'angelo releases a hell of cd we don't here from him for 5 years except for maybe a few song soundtracks and some rumors comes back releases another and now what!!! if he is following in marvin's shoes he got some big feet to fill...


just my opinion
