Hey, what’s up, you guys? Marty Schwartz here with Marty Music, and I’ve got an amazing lesson for you today! My good buddy, @Kerry2smooth Marshall, is breaking down the iconic guitar chords and vibe of D’Angelo’s “Untitled (How Does It Feel)”—one of the smoothest neo-soul tracks of all time.
In this lesson, Kerry will show you:
The soulful D, A Minor, G Major, G Minor progression that forms the song’s foundation.
The subtle dynamics and feel that make “Untitled” so legendary.
How to approach the song’s arpeggios, rhythmic strumming, and emotional expression.
A breakdown of the bridge chords and how to use F#m11, B Minor, and E Minor to walk up to those beautiful transitions.
Whether you’re a neo-soul fan or looking to inject your playing with that D’Angelo feel, this lesson is perfect for you!
