Mark Ronson and D'Angelo-Glass Mountain Trust


Ronson’s album is only a few days away, and personally this was the track I was looking forward to the most. Material from D’Angelo is so rare these days that any feature of his is treated with the highest regard, especially one on a producer’s track/album whereby he’s likely to monopolise vocal duty.

He doesn’t let down either, despite Mark Ronson clearly doing his best to take D’Angelo out of his comfort zone with a techno-influenced, retro-inspired production. As the song grows, the complimentarity of the beat and vocals also grows as D’Angelo seems to connect with the production increasingly well. A very eclectic, diverse track that will satisfy both pop and soul fans.

Sunday's Classic Collabo: Method Man/D'Angelo

The year 1998, during which time one of the best rappers around collaborated with one of the best R&B/neo soul singers about. As you can see and hear in the video to the left, this track is about relationship troubles that Method Man had been experiencing.

Also, did you notice 50 Cent in this video? Several years before you had even heard of him, and I presume this was before his infamous How To Rob track that led to troubles with Method Man’s Wu-Tang brethren (amongst others).

D’Angelo used to be so cool, what the hell happened to him? Anyway, if you like what you hear, grab the mp3 below.
