Voodoo Heals, D'Angelo Returns

Voodoo Heals, D’Angelo Returns

“The religion is like a glue. We attract each other. If a drum is beating, and someone hears it, the next thing you know, this place is packed.”
 — Brooklyn Voodoo priestess Marie Saintil talks to the BBC about how her religion has helped Haitians recover from last year’s earthquake. Coincidentally, probably, the beloved and troubled singer D’Angelo played a concert in the Swedish capitol of Stockholm. It was his first performance in ten years. And he is apparently preparing a new album, which would be his first since 2000’s Soulquarian masterpiece, Voodoo.
