It wasn't until earlier this week, however, that we finally learned just what to expect. Yesterday, with the unveiling of three new remixes from the commemorative release, a track list for an expansive second disc was revealed, featuring 16 rare remixes of album cuts from DJ Premier, Erick Sermon and a host of other producers, along with unreleased vocals from Redman, AZ and Kool G Rap, as well as unheard instrumental tweaks. The reissue arrives with a 20-page booklet inked by Nelson George, who conducted one D'Angelo's only filmed interviews between Voodoo and Black Messiah for a Red Bull Music Academy lecture that featured an appearance from Questlove.
