R&B crooner D'Angelo, who won over America with his '90s soul ballads only to fade after bouts with the law and drugs, was critically injured in a car wreck outside his hometown of Richmond.

D'Angelo, 31, born Michael Eugene Archer, was in a 2003 Hummer sport utility vehicle on Sept. 19 when it crossed the roadway and struck a fence, ejecting the singer, State Police Sgt. Kevin Barrick said Monday. Archer wasn't wearing a seat restraint, Barrick said.

Barrick said Archer was initially listed in critical condition, but that no further information is available.

Officials at Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center, where the Grammy-winning artist was flown after the wreck, said the family had asked that his condition not be released.

    i love him, but he's a f'ing KNUCKLEHEAD!!

    ugh.

    hope he comes out of it ok.

    interesting that ?love didn't say anything when he guested on gilles peterson's show. he even called erykah, and talked about how everything w/d is always "tentative." wonder if that means he didn't know or was just being respectful of the family?

      Could somebody tell me what happened to that
      man to bring him so low. He was a prince. I still
      love his music; always will. I miss his talent, truly!

        from e! online:

        While no details were available on Sellers' condition, D'Angelo's lawyer, L. Londell McMillan, released a statement on Monday letting fans know that the entertainer is going to be just fine.

        "D'Angelo is home and doing well. He is anxious to finish the recording of his soul masterpiece that the world has patiently awaited. His spirit is very positive and he is blessed that the accident was not fatal," said McMillan.
