    The album, at one time tentatively titled James River, is reportedly set for a late 2011-early 2012 release, according to Billboard.com.

    The long-awaited album has been delayed numerous times, presumably by numerous legal issues – among them arrests for drug possession and solicitation – as well as his recovery from a serious car crash. In the past decade, he has made occasional guest appearances, contributing to music by Common, Snoop Dogg, J Dilla and others.

      1. From what Ive heard from him recently It doesnt look like we will be getting a classic joint, seems like he may be going down the contemporary route. I can only hope for a solid neo soul album.

    1. Good news but could be a major let down….I got Voodoo and ‘Leave it all Behind’ by Foreign Exchange as the best r&b albums of my lifetime

    2. The “D” in D’Angelo’s record should be called Detox because won’t see it for a loooong time.
