{"product_id":"brown-sugar","title":"Brown Sugar","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eD'Angelo\u003c\/strong\u003e's masterpiece debut album \u003cem\u003eBrown Sugar\u003c\/em\u003e was originally released in July 1995. The title track, \"\u003cem\u003eBrown Sugar\u003c\/em\u003e,\" oozes into the ears with a dark, gooey, molasses-like texture. Bolstered by the smoky sounds of a tricky old stage organ, \u003cstrong\u003eD'Angelo\u003c\/strong\u003e sets the mood here for the rest of his album; his highly agile falsetto vocals merge with the gutbucket rhythm melange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe album's centerpiece efforts, \"\u003cem\u003eMe and Those Dreamin' Eyes of Mine\u003c\/em\u003e,\" \"\u003cem\u003eShit, Damn, Motherfucker\u003c\/em\u003e,\" and \"\u003cem\u003eCruisin'\u003c\/em\u003e,\" prove that there is some mettle behind \u003cstrong\u003eD'Angelo\u003c\/strong\u003e's retrograde stylistics. \"\u003cem\u003eDreamin'\u003c\/em\u003e\" cuts loose an ethereal groove colored with live drums and meaty rhythm guitar that extends for eternity; the sinister \"\u003cem\u003eMotherfucker\u003c\/em\u003e\" underwhelms with its subtlety but becomes more intriguing once you realize the smoove lyrics are about an O.J.-like lover killing his best friend and wife. \"\u003cem\u003eCruisin'\u003c\/em\u003e\" strokes the Smokey Robinson blue-light classic with \u003cstrong\u003eD'Angelo\u003c\/strong\u003e's own touch but doesn't ruffle it. If you love Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and Prince - this is up there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2LP - Double 180 Gram Vinyl with Download. 2CD - Newly Remastered.
