These two sources will help the understanding of why neo-soul didn’t reflect what D’Angelo wanted his music to be.

– This source is an interview with the artist, and he talks about why he doesn’t like to be called a neo-soul artist^[1]

– Although this artist was put under the sub-genre of neo-soul, it elaborates why his first album did not reflect this genre^[2]

These two sources support the meaning of the song Untitled, which I would like to add and expand a little bit on, so people can realize the frustration that D’Angelo had after the song was dropped.

This peer-reviewed source talks about the black man’s body and how it is visualized and sexualized in society (“untitled”) ^[3]

“Untitled” signifies the clash of being a black man and racism ^[4]

– Unexpected by the public’s eye, D’Angelo recently passed away from pancreatic cancer ^[5][6]

“Notably, these gaps are not explained solely by the relatively lower socioeconomic status of black men compared with white men or by differences in patterns of health behaviors (30, 38, 76). As overall mortality and morbidity have improved in the United States, black men remain more likely to die from chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancers, compared with their white counterparts, and it is not readily understood why (30, 79).”^[7]

Related to D’Angelo’s death at the age of 51, it is common for black males to be likely to develop long-term illnesses like cancer in the United States. ^[5] As an underrepresented group, genes have not been a main contributor to why this is an issue. Researchers believe it can be linked to social disparities that affect black men. ^[6]

Now that you have compiled a bibliography, it’s time to plan out how you’ll improve your assigned article. In this section, write up a concise outline of how the sources you’ve identified will add relevant information to your chosen article. Be sure to discuss what content gap your additions tackle and how these additions will improve the article’s quality. Consider other changes you’ll make to the article, including possible deletions of irrelevant, outdated, or incorrect information, restructuring of the article to improve its readability or any other change you plan on making. This is your chance to really think about how your proposed additions will improve your chosen article and to vet your sources even further. Note: This is not a draft. This is an outline/plan where you can think about how the sources you’ve identified will fill in a content gap.
