I was at this show and didn't know this recording existed. Blowing my mind right now.

D'angelo really tested the market if it was ready for Black Messiah's sound. It did pretty fucking well!!!

If you know me, you know I love sharing music more than anything in the world. I've done dozens of compilations for blogs and music sites, but wanted to create a fresh, new platform. 

This is the first volume of a new series, The Sweet Spot, which aims to highlight music that falls within a particular category. In this case, classic and rare gems that came out during a special 3-year moment in musical history (99-01). From Mama's Gun to Supreme Clientele to In Search of...so many memorable albums made during that time.

Each volume will highlight a new artist or photographer, DJ and blend together for your listening pleasure. Play it loud and send it to friends. Enjoy.
