Lauryn Hill, DJ Premier, John Mayer, H.E.R., and many more were also in the building paying their respects ... Barack Obama sent a letter for the family to read during the service.
D'Angelo died on October 14 at the age of 51 after a pancreatic cancer battle ... his Spotify monthly streams have spiked over 152% since his death.
Don't call it a goodbye ... the family is still planning a public tribute come 2026!!!
