D’Angelo has been having a stellar comeback season over the last few months and this just may be his summer to take over. Just ahead of his set at this year’s Essence Music Festival, the R&B singer will hit the stage at this year’s BET Awards – he joins previously announced performers G.O.O.D. Music, Chris Brown, 2 Chainz, and many more.

He’s about to ask us how it feels a second time around – should feel pretty great to see him perform live just like the old days. We’re crossing our fingers that The Roots will join him as well.
