D'Angelo first came to prominence in the early 90's when the Neo-Soul era was shifting into high gear with artist such as Maxwell, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, and many others. His first big hit Brown Sugar caught the attention of many listeners (myself included), but he really took of with the release of his follow up album Voodoo and the hit single Untitled (How Does It Feel). He went on a 14 year musical hiatus and re-emerged in 2014 with the release of the album Black Messiah. The documentary, Devil's Pie, was screened at the Tribeca Film Festival shows him getting candid about some of his demons.
