For fans of real R&B and Soul, 2009 is shaping up to be a great year already. First, we’ve got the first installment of Black Summers’ Night from Maxwell on the way, another disc from Erykah’s trilogy planned, and now, D’Angelo’s camp is revealing more details about his comeback CD as well.

According to a statement we just received from his manager and publicist, the album is scheduled for a summer release and will feature collaborations with Prince, Cee-Lo Green, Mark Ronson, Roy Hargrove, and as we first reported in October, longtime friend Raphael Saadiq. The singer also plans to tour in the U.S. and Europe starting in the spring.

Specific cities and dates haven’t been announced yet, but considering how fast Maxwell’s tour sold out, I would put a Ticketmaster alert on those D’Angelo dates ASAP.
