It's not like D'angelo was Herbie Hancock on keys, with the voice of Marvin Gaye.

D'angelo's talent lied in his simplicity for me. He's the type of typical gospel cat that may not know 2 things about theory but got 'feel' like a mug.

A person's 'feel' is almost impossible to copy. It's almost like someones fingerprint, no 2 can be identical, similar yes.

D'angelo made you feel 'cool' when you listened to him. It wasn't just me but everybody everywhere said the same thing.
