The nightmarish chorus of "1000 Deaths" arrives late and fierce, as though the band unfurled its crunchy, lumbering vamp just long enough to violently snatch it out from under us. "The Charade"'s Minneapolis sound funk rock follows, every bit as bright as the previous track was menacing until you zero in on the threadbare heart-sickness of D and P-Funk affiliate Kendra Foster’s lyrics. Black Messiah pulls together disparate threads few predecessors have had the smarts or audacity to unite. One song might channel Funkadelic, another, the Revolution, but the shiftless mad doctor experimentation and the mannered messiness at the root of it all is unmistakably the Vanguard. Black Messiah is a dictionary of soul, but D'Angelo is the rare classicist able to filter the attributes of the greats in the canon into a sound distinctly his own. It’s at once familiar and oddly unprecedented, a peculiar trick to pull on an album recorded over the span of a decade." - Pitchfork</span></span></span> https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=423429#423429 RockyRaccoon Sun, 29 Nov 2015 10:41:31 GMT https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=423429#423429 https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=423428#423428 Author: <a href='https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=27024'>RockyRaccoon</a><br /><br /> Posted: 11/29/2015 15:31<br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br /> <span style="font-weight: bold">BEST R&B ALBUM OF 2014 </span><br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic"><span class="forum-bbcode-font-size-18" style="line-height: normal">The Nominees: </span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold"><span class="forum-bbcode-font-size-24" style="line-height: normal">BLACK MESSIAH</span></span><br /> <br /> <div align="left"><img src="http://albumart.besteveralbums.com/albumart/album_large_72458_548e8c22a179f.jpg" class="postimg" style="cursor:pointer;" height="250" onclick="window.open('http://albumart.besteveralbums.com/albumart/album_large_72458_548e8c22a179f.jpg','imgpop','width=500,height=500,status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no');return false" /><span class="gensmall hidden-md hidden-lg"><br><i>Thumbnail.
