Maxwell

SOLD OUT!
Along with fellow founders D'Angelo and Erykah Badu, Maxwell was enormously important in defining and shaping the neo-soul movement that rose to prominence over the latter half of the '90s. Drawing his greatest inspiration from the concept of the R&B auteur (looking to artists like Prince, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, etc.), Maxwell recorded some of the most ambitious R&B of his time, becoming wildly popular and often earning critical raves in the process.
His new album, "BLACKsummers'night," which hits retailers July 7, is the first installment of a planned trilogy. The remaining two records--"BlackSUMMERS'night" and "Blacksummers'NIGHT"--are slated for release in 2010 and 2011, respectively.
