60 Songs That Explain the '90s - D’Angelo—“Untitled (How Does It Feel)”

Today, Rob breaks down one of the many impossible expectations we have for our musical stars—the memorial performance. After years of staying out of the public eye, D’Angelo paid tribute to the artist he grew up imitating, Prince, not because he was expected to but because he had something to share.
