Devil’s Pie

D'Angelo

“Devil’s Pie” is a sparse funk diatribe on the excess of money and materialism in Hip Hop, with a minor reference to Five Percenter philosophy A Spin magazine columnist later cited “Devil’s Pie” as the album’s centerpiece, while also describing it as a “sweaty, head-nodding sermon against the evil seduction of hip-hop materialism.”

The track was released as a promotional single for Voodoo and peaked at #69 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.
