Is D'Angelo secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

D'Angelo is celebrating his 52nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter-musician D'Angelo (Black Messiah, Voodoo, Brown Sugar, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 52nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

D'Angelo, a cultural icon

Born Michael Eugene Archer in Richmond on February 11, 1974, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. D'Angelo's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little D'Angelo hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for D'Angelo as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 52.

Happy Birthday, D'Angelo, you're the best!
