a great, slow, sexy set of love songs but hardly in the traditional sense. no up tempo to change the pace of things. but where is maxwell now? to be enjoyed over and over again.

Maxwell will make you fall in love.(with him):-) He is very open to expressing the feelings men go through, not hiding anything. The best music out today, closest artist we'll ever get to Marvin Gaye.

Voodoo

Release Date January 25, 2000
Man when this album finally came out,it blew people away...Theres so many reasons "why" this album is classic, but lets just look at the facts, James Poyser, Questlove,Pino Pallidino, J-Dilla, Raphael Saaqiq, Roy Hargrove,Meth & Red,Dj Premier, Angie Stone (writing/background)and the Legendary Russel Elevado recording it all track for track @the infamous Electric Lady...Come on people,

So, we dont hear a solid project from the man in years, ok. The media is plastered with news of drug addiction, rehab, personal issues, and his lable has lost faith in the man, along with countless rumors an unflattering pics on the internet...Now people want to condemn him. SHAME...

First off lets think what R&B looked and sounded ... Read More:

I don't even get what some of these songs are about. The single stood out most and there were maybe 2 other tolerable songs but the others left me lost.

I've been meaning to write this review forever but never got around to it. Forgot about it even. But then I started listening to Maxwell's "Til The Cops Come Knocking", came here to see the actual name for the CD it was on (couldn't remember) and kinda saw this CD right after his debut..

I was like, "OK. Time to speak my mind."

The sounds are very different and it will take you forever to understand what he's talking about on some of these songs.

I bought it for less than 7 bucks used but hey, that's cause I'm a fan of some of the songs he's done in ... Read More:

This is a wonderful album to relax to or just do chill out and relax. His style is hypnotic and smooth. His voice is like velvet and the songs flow nicely together.

Live

Release Date November 18, 1997
I can only imagine the reaction of many people when Erykah Badu followed up her hugely successful debut album with this live recording. But hey-she knew from history that momentum can really boost up such a potentially idiosyncratic move so 'Live' became as much of a hit as the debut! And artistically it is more then worth it. Erykah was (and still is) one of the "artiste's" of the often formuliac neo soul crowd. Her jazzy rhythms,soaring vocals and saucy "raps" permeate every single thing on this album from the opening "Rimshot" (I hear a little Miles riff in there) on through great versions of "Other Side Of The Game","Apple Tree" and the sassy "Tyrone". She even mixes it up with some terric covers in keeping with her style and savvy;the Roy Ayers classic "Searching" ... Read More:
