iTunes Review
Maxwell sings about romance and its attendant spoils and complications with a buttery falsetto as opposed to the more explicit, Auto-Tune-coated R&B heard on the radio today. After whetting appetites with each release (1996’s Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite, 1997’s Embrya, and 2001’s Now), BLACKsummers’night marks the first set of a trilogy of new recordings, his first in eight years. Guitar, bass, drums, organ, horns, and handclaps give the album an organic starting point for Maxwell to explore. “Playing Possum”, “Stop the World”, and “Bad Habits” are vintage Maxwell: patient meditations on love filled with his trademark passion and vulnerability. “Cold” funks with playful horns and bass while Maxwell gets creative with the metaphors (“Global Warming ain’t got nothing on this chick/She’s not to play with”) and “Phoenix” is an instrumental that strikes a Nuyorican pose. The state of R&B has changed dramatically since Maxwell last released an album; BLACKsummers’night reminds us that Maxwell’s grounded soul is back and was sorely missed.
Customer Reviews
This is real R&B!!
All I know is that I'm enjoying this album so much, and yes he made us wait a damn long time for it, but it's renewing my faith in the 'r&b' scene (no mean feat). I can't wait for the next two installments. You NEED this people, you need this!!
Incredible
This is the breath of fresh air the music world needs. I have been missing our true soul artists and I couldn't be happier Maxwell is back. A beautiful record.
About time!
Welcome back Maxwell! Now Maxwell and Badu are back with some great work hopefully Neo-Soul is back (D'angelo?). Great album.
