While out in Oakland recently, D’Angelo was fortunate enough to meet one of his heroes, Bobby Seale, the co-founder of the Black Panther Party. The New York Times documented the meeting and sat down with both the artist and the political activist to discuss political protest, the importance of music to the movement and the prison industrial complex. In the interview, the singer discussed how important it for artists to sing about social change but how disappointed he is that only a handful of black artists are taking a stand.
