the convo you and SoWhat are having just above. that IMO has been the most insightful and measured part of this whole discussion, but because the previous 150 are the typical childish back-n-forths, i doubt folks are even reading it...
THE MYTHOS, fuck the mythos of D is one of biggest problems in appreciating AND critiquing his work. i without hesitation blame 85% of that on Questluv. D being gone 10 years only made the mythos/mystique worse. at this point D has no one to blame but himself. this is coming from some one who had Voodoo as my favorite LP of the "aughts". from what i've heard i'm not excited about what he is bringing. i honestly feel that boat has sailed and artist like Shafiq, Bilal, Muhsinah, Sonnymoon, James Blake, TheeSatisfaction, Janelle etc, are doing much more interesting "progressive" things with the genre(s) of soul/r&b/funk
