In this part, she says D'angelo's pride as a man won't allow him to work with her again
Ive been listening to these clips over the last week. Seems like D'Angelo lacked drive.
I was kinda shocked to hear she was the driving force behind his first album. I was also shocked she wrote Sugar Hill Gangs records..
Its funny she said he was an overweight dude but by the time we saw him, he was transformed and cut up.

Yeah, which in a way, makes sense when you think about
look at the time periods between each of his albums: Brown Sugar was 95', Voodoo was 00' and then Black Messiah was 2014. long stretches of time.
but yeah, Angie is a great songwriter in her own right. and it make that they worked together so well in the beginning.
Angie was already an established writer when D' was working on Brown Sugar, so she knew how put the finishing touches on the songs/albums
yeah, D'angelo was slightly overweight in the beginning, he just wore baggy clothes to cover it up
check out this live performance of Brown Sugar, Angie is one of his background singers, she's the woman with the short cut
I don’t know if he lacked drive or not I always thought he was a real bad over thinker and which made him super hesitant

I thought bro was singing about weed. This song was actually about a woman?

it's a play on words/metaphor
Yeah you can tell he’s a perfectionist, listening to Voodoo you can hear everything is so damn detailed

i always remember an older interview with her where she spoke on how the industry broke them up as well, when he got on as seen as a sex symbol, they were pushing him to not be out with her - a dark overweight woman, fukkin haters.
anyway, still love mahogany soul, top 10 porject from the 96-03 neo soul era

there is a huge age gap between them
she's 61 now and he's 49
she talks about when they first met and started working together at the 4:49 mark
