R&B/Soul: DJ Rahdu – “Follow Me: D’angelo Flips, Remixes And Tributes” (Mixtape)

BamaLoveSoul and DJ Rahdu doing the love… keeping the flame of hope alive with this “Follow Me” flip mix while we wait on the next D’Angelo work of art. Now, this is just the 11-minute sampler. They have a full mix on the way. They cannot “can’t imagine him releasing a bomb” – which is a sentiment many share. This is how you hold your fav artist down while they are out of the spotlight.

“Enjoy Follow Me, our tribute to the fans that have been inspired by and hopefully inspire D’angelo and encourage him to release the next album we’ll be enjoying even 18 years later.”
