Grammy-winning Soul Singer D’Angelo Dies at 51
American R&B and neo-soul singer D’Angelo, known for hits such as “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” and “Brown Sugar,” has died at the age of 51.
Family representatives confirmed that the Grammy-winning musician, born Michael Eugene Archer, died at his home in New York City after a prolonged battle with pancreatic cancer.
D’Angelo was described as “the shining star of our family whose light has dimmed too soon.”
His 2000 album Voodoo earned him two Grammy Awards, including Best R&B Album, and is widely regarded as one of the most influential R&B records of its era.
D’Angelo rose to prominence in the mid-1990s with his debut album Brown Sugar (1995), which helped define the emerging neo-soul sound — a fusion of vintage soul, funk, gospel, and hip-hop influences.
