The mini-season on D'Angelo comes to a close, as Ed and Jared discuss his final (so far) album, Black Messiah, credited to D'Angelo and the Vanguard. Along the way, the fellas discuss new podcast ideas, the weaknesses of the Back to the Future trilogy, best party games and so much more. They also dive deep into what could be D'Angelo's crowning achievement, what his loss means for music and what he fought to overcome along the way. This is a good one.

Join Ed and Jared for a deep-groove wander through D’Angelo’s Voodoo, the landmark album that reshaped twenty-first-century soul. From the alchemy behind its velvet-grit sound to the legacy of “Untitled (How Does It Feel?),” the guys trace how Voodoo became a modern classic.

Their path, naturally, spirals into delightful side streets: Sammy Davis Jr.’s lost Poor Devil pilot, the existential truths of papaya, tapas logic, a surprising detour through Bad Company, a warm nod to the Simpsons, and a handful of other curiosities that flutter into the mix like vinyl dust in late-night studio light.

It’s a conversation equal parts music nerdery, cultural archaeology, and friendly chaos. Tune in and let the needle drop.
