R&B singer DโAngelo dead at 51
R&B award-winning singer Michael Eugene Archer, known to his fans as DโAngelo, died aged 51 after a battle with cancer, his family said in a statement.
His family said the singer was leaving behind a “legacy of extraordinarily moving music” and asked fans to celebrate โthe gift of song that he has left for the worldโ.
The influential singer was known for pioneering the genre of neo-soul, which blends R&B music with other genres including hip-hop and jazz.
His three albums won him four Grammy awards. The music video for his hit song, Untitled (How Does it Feel), gained mainstream attention after he performed in the one-shot video, naked, belting the song.
