was 26 years old. He&#8217;d release his generation-influencing album, <i>Voodoo<\/i>, in January of that year. Months later, he&#8217;d find himself in a room with rock artist Beck, taking photos for the cover of The FADER&#8217;s third-ever issue. At the time, D&#8217;Angelo was already a star in the making, ascending to a role that he&#8217;d later recuse himself from for years at a time, reluctant to give too much of himself to the spotlight. As he&#8217;d later tell journalist Jon Caramanica about fame in the interview accompanying the photoshoot: &#8220;It ain\u2019t promised tomorrow.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            That cover story is a snapshot of an artist who was already revealing himself to be fiercely self-assured and highly skeptical of the music industry and where (and how) they wanted to place him. He was rebellious, resistant, and wholly devoted to the path of he considered himself to be walking, &#8220;Black music.&#8221; Following his death on October 14, these would all become traits that would define his towering legacy as an artist who protected his craft and his most precious, distinctive gift.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            Ahead, read the most enlightening quotes from D&#8217;Angelo from his conversation with Beck, where he discussed the state of R&amp;B music, his thoughts on Prince&#8217;s career, and his creative process.
