About this Event
Join us for a night of music, conversation, and vibes as we explore D’Angelo’s Voodoo—one of the most iconic and influential R&B albums of all time. More than just an album, Voodoo is a sonic and spiritual experience that blends soul, funk, jazz, and hip-hop into something timeless.
We’ll break down the album’s deep grooves, its connection to the neo-soul movement, and the legendary influence of artists like Prince, J Dilla, and The Soulquarians. From the sensual energy of “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” to the powerful social commentary of “Devil’s Pie”, this album remains a masterpiece of Black music.
Discussion Topics Include:
-The live-band feel and D’Angelo’s raw, analog production style
-The influence of J Dilla, Questlove, and The Soulquarians on the album’s sound
-The deeper meaning behind songs like “The Line” and “Africa”
-Voodoo’s impact on today’s artists like Frank Ocean, Solange, and Miguel
