both classics, but which do you prefer? Voodoo is definitely more ambitious/experimental. But Brown Sugar is an album I can literally listen to and enjoy at any moment. Voodoo I have to be in a certain mood.

I listen to Brown Sugar at least once a week. The vibe it creates is second to none.

That's my winter album :blessed:

to me, this is as lopsided as any comparison, ever. BROWN SUGAR BY A ZILLION MILES. i did not mess with Voodoo like that. Boring ass songs with no structure that drone on.

Mel, you're a great poster, so don't take this as disrespect, but posts like this reveal your whiteness. Certain songs on Voodoo just have a level of soul and black spirituality that I think is hard for a white person to really be moved by.




Like, D'Angelo was on another spiritual plane when he made these joints.

Brown Sugar is more cohesive in that it sticks to a formula that a person can literally enjoy front to back, while Voodoo has more songs that would make you want to hear certain ones at certain times, I love both, but I feel like the standout tracks on voodoo are far and above the standouts on Brown Sugar, so I'm going with Voodoo

You're completely off your rocker. Trust me. Africa & a few other songs go but this album is sloppy. If anything it reveals bougie, pretentious, detached Negroes TRYING desperately to relate to an idea of blackness or soul that their primped & preened lives lack.

so imma need you to respectfully go head with that bullshyt ass analysis.

Africa is my descent
And here I am far from home
I dwell within a land that is meant
For many men not my tone, yeah

This is alot tougher than you'd think. I do think Brown Sugar is more consistent all through but Voodoo has some crazy highs. Spanish joint, The Line, send it on.:banderas: takes me back.

:russ: well that didn't take long, guess I struck a nerve. I'm actually very curious to hear what your idea of blackness actually is, since you seem to view yourself as such an expert
