D'Angelo's impact on music and pop culture, and the new podcast -- Forged
from Commotion with Elamin Abdelmahmoud
Grammy-winning R&B singer-songwriter D’Angelo died Tuesday after a long battle with cancer. Elamin is joined by music critics Jay Smooth and David Dennis Jr. to look back on D'Angelo's legacy, and how his music helped to change the trajectory of soul, R&B and rap music as we now know it. Plus, legendary Anishnaabe artist Norval Morrisseau is one of the most celebrated Indigenous artists in the world, and criminal fraudsters have capitalized on his popularity by creating fake Morrisseau paintings — the extent of which is believed to be the largest art crime fraud ever. Elamin chats with Adrian Stimson, an artist from the Siksika Nation and the host of the new podcast 'Forged' from CBC and ABC Australia, about the art crime underworld of fake Morrisseau paintings.
