dbpprop:abstract
  • Voodoo is the second studio album by American R&B and neo soul musician D'Angelo, released January 25, 2000 on the Virgin Records-imprint label Cheeba Sound in the United States. Recording sessions for the album took place at Electric Lady Studios in New York City during 1998 to 1999, with an extensive line-up of soul, funk, jazz, and hip hop musicians associated with the Soulquarians musical collective, including Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, Pino Palladino, James Poyser, and Russell Elevado. Voodoo contains an experimental, groove-based funk sound with live instrumentation and a vintage production style, which contrasts the conventional structure of D'Angelo's debut album Brown Sugar (1995). It also exhibits a maturity in his songwriting with personal themes of spirituality, sexuality, love, growth, and fatherhood. Following heavy promotion and an anticipated release, Voodoo was met with a considerable amount of commercial and critical success. The album became a chart success within weeks after release with the help of its hit third single, "Untitled (How Does It Feel)", and its controversial music video. Despite some criticism for its loose, experimental structure, the album received mostly positive reviews from writers and music critics that praised its diverse musical style and vintage influences, and it was also voted at or near the top of many publications' "best album" lists. It has been recognized as a creative milestone of the neo soul genre and has been considered by music writers as a masterpiece. In spite of its chart success and critical praise, the album did not parallel the sales and single-oriented success of his debut album. Along with its critical and commercial legacy, Voodoo has been noted for serving as D'Angelo's last studio album prior to his period of legal controversies and absence from the music scene after the end of the album's international supporting tour in late 2000. While successful early on, the tour eventually became marked by internal issues. On March 1, 2000, Voodoo was certified platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), following sales in excess of over one million copies. In 2003, the album was ranked number 488 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
  • Voodoo est le dernier album du chanteur de nu soul D'Angelo, sorti le 11 janvier 2000, après plusieurs retards dus à des problèmes avec sa maison de disque et son manager. Cet album, par sa notoriété et par ses ventes, a dépassé de loin ses prédécesseurs, entrant directement en première place au Billboard 200, et devenant disque de platine deux mois plus tard. Il comprend entre autres la chanson "Untitled (How Does It Feel)", qui devint rapidement un clip à succès sur MTV. Cette fameuse vidéo dévoile D'Angelo quasiment nu en train de chanter. Voodoo gagna le prix du "Meilleur album R&B de l'année" et de la "Meilleur performance vocale masculine R&B" lors des Grammy Awards 2001. L'album est classé 488 au classement du magazine Rolling Stone : Les 500 plus grands albums de tous les temps selon Rolling Stone
