Singer D'Angelo has been trying to get his career back on track, but he's not going to do it by trying to pick up hookers at 2 in the morning.

D'Angelo, real name Michael Archer was rolling solo in West Village when he spotted a woman he thought was a prostitute. He stopped and offered her $40 for oral sex. Turns out the woman was an undercover New York cop.

The R&B star was arrested and charged with solicitation of prostitution according to the New York Post.

The Grammy Award winner reportedly had $12,000 dollars in his brand new Range Rover at the time.

D'Angelo was once thought to be an up and coming Neo-Soul superstar after the release of his 1st two albums 'Brown Sugar' in 1995 and 'Voodoo' in 2000. But he hasn't put out another album since.

Trouble with the law and alleged drug use have robbed the music world of a great talent.

Let's hope he gets his act together.
