Yup, D's human, he is contradictory sometimes. And he's still young too. I just am in awe of his musical acumen. Sometimes I think he did himself a great disservice by doing that video because now he's got some fans lovin' him for all the wrong reasons.
I appreciate the time and effort he takes with each song. . . you can tell, it's manifested.
Speaking of contradictions, he has a tat with Psalm 23:4 permanently imbedded in his skin (which, in essence, says that you should not be afraid of ANYTHING) but yet he admits to being scared of receiving the same fate as the likes of Marvin Gaye?
D' grew up in a Christian environment and if he really received the word and was truly "fed" he'd know that God did not give him the spirit of fear. He needs to let it go. Do his thing and let God handle the rest. Perhaps he's feeling a little guilty about a few things? Perhaps the Gospel is not the center of his life anymore?
I'm one fan that will always dig him. I know that when everything is said in done, because we all know how fickle the music industry is, here today, gone tomorrow. . .D' will still be in the studio cranking out music (even if not profitable). . .I think he has to, it's in his blood.
