D'Angelo in Fat Camp!?

Acclaimed producer Rick Rubin will produce more than R&B heavyweight D'angelo's (Michael Archer) next album, he's also challenged the M.I.A. soulman to shed a few extra pounds.

Rubin made the challenge to D'angelo while the singer wheezed through vocal tracks for his untitled upcoming album (J Records). Says Rubin, "I've been here before with other artists...Tom Petty weighed 450 lbs. when he wrote and recorded 'Freefallin', D'angelo is weighing 450 lbs. now, so I'm having him record a version of 'Free Falling'".

Rubin also shares some insight on the personal nature of the record, "This album will silence the critics...definately!, D'angelo has been reading a lot of negative comments about him, his personal life and Voodoo on his own fansite (www.okayplayer.com), he literally locked himself in the pantry with a bong, some twizzlers, a tape recorder and some brillo pads and came out 2 weeks later with the albums opening track, 'Hell to tha NAW'", a scathing rebuttal to his critics, nasty rumors, and slow drive-thru service at the local Carl's Jr.

Rubin would not go into much detail about the project, but shares that there is a track on the album which is an open letter to funk legend 'Sly Stone', featuring George Clinton, Young Jeezy, the Game and Redman. "It's about becoming a ghetto superhero and cleaning up your neighborhood", says Rubin.

"This album is a rebirth for D'angelo, as well as D'angelo fans", says Rubin, "By the time his fairweather fans finish listening to the album
they'll have eaten so much crow the Audubon Society will have an A.P.B. for a handful of miserable/longwinded Okay Players."

Also expect to see some fun hi-jinks when D' rooms with Drew Carey and Jim Belushi on the upcoming season of "VH-1's Celebrity Fit Camp" (also starring Kirstie Alley, George Wendt (Norm from Cheers), and real life fat hollywood couple James Avery (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) and Reginald VelJohnson (Family Matters)

Här är nyare bilder på D´Angelo.

*HAHAHAAA det e angie stone som ligger bakom det där

Hur kan hon göra det när det var flera år sedan de skiljde sig? Jag tror att det var redan innan "Voodo"

svårt att döma av den där bilden...men nog såg han mustig ut alltid.

dem där bilderna är mer än ett halvår gamla så han kan nog ha gått upp mer om så är fallet att rubin säger det....

Rick Rubin har alltid varit Rick Rubin och kommer alltid vara Rick Rubin, ja det är samma person.

jag har ju dreglat över honom.. vad är det här!?

Svårt att tro att det är samma snubbe som i "Untitled"-videon!
