D’Angelo has pleaded not guilty to those previously reported charges of attempting to hire a prostitute. The R&B and ‘neo-soul’ type was arrested in New York at 2.30am on Sunday morning after allegedly approaching an undercover policewoman and offering her forty dollars for oral sex.
 
A statement issued by D’Angelo’s manager Lindsay Guion yesterday said: “We know there is a lot of speculation in regard to the arrest of D’Angelo in New York City this past weekend. We would like his fans and the public at large to know that D’Angelo has pled not guilty and is contesting the allegations made against him. Also know that he is in good health and extremely excited about his forthcoming new album. D’Angelo would like to personally thank all of his fans for the outpouring of concern, and appreciates if all would allow the American justice system to resolve the matter before jumping to any conclusions”.
 
So, in summary: definitely didn’t do it, not ill, has new album coming out. Also, didn’t do it, right?
