[uwldluvme21]

[realdanimusiq]

hes not only sexy as hell

but hes humble and real

unlike so many artist

[nubian05girl]

Max and Sade are alot alike. They come, tease us with the best music ever and then disappear into the smoke leaving us desperate for another hit! Still love both of them!

[Great2beme23]

This man has one of the most beautiful and soulful voices I have ever heard...gosh I would like to meet him!!!

[lem0nsp0nge]

Music defining life for you Max so do what you need to make life defining music for us.

[legalgirl2003]

no, u were experienced in life Max, u are a soulful musical genius... why did u really leave????!!!!

[lekesida1]

Got to know for the first time in 2001 back home in nigeria - a bit late, but you have remained with me ever since...

[mimi1090111]

So sexy, smooth, humble, talented, but underrated......I want to see more of you Maxwell!!!

[cocoapuffs35]

this is probably irrelevant, but he has a sexy ass voice

[cutehaters]

oooh.... sexy and smart...tepestrous!!

[darkbones04]

[s8f360]

The Legend!!!

[jumonsizzle]

[fayfay29]

Maxwell may have been gone for 7 years, but I kept playing his music for the whole 7. He was gone but never forgotten.

[leavon314]

KENNY IS THAT YOU?!?!?!?!

[Msdontcallmeamber]

This man is so wise, so gentle, so mature, so gifted and so well spoken...

Mmmmm... So very real... And I love it...

Forever a fan... forever adoring from a distance...

[latina232008]

awww maxwell sooooo handsome hehe hit me up anytime ! 

[ayro06]

Thanks, I just stumbled upon it earlier today. I was like ten when that song came out so I don't remember it

[ayro06]

Does anyone know the name of the song where he hit that long note and was waving his arm at the beginning of the video?

[Beautieinandout]

@ayro06. That's "Ascension (Don't Even Wonder)" from his album Urban Hang Suite!

[dwcai81]

He doesn't like release a bunch of new music because he likes hearing the old stuff. He took a break just because he wanted to take a break. He won't release something just for the sake of releasing it.

This guy gets it.

[knowledge2224]

I AM TRULY FEELING ALL THE WORDS OF YOUR OLD SONGS AS WELL AS YOUR NEW SONGS. WHEN YOU HAVE BEEN THREW CRAZY RELATIONSHIPS YOU CAN RESPECT GREAT MUSIC AS YOURS.

[iLuvMJnMaxwell]

speechless...great vid :)

[luckystar19335]

@ Lovliqueen I think the video was for Quit Playing the Game from the Best Man soundtrack. Could be wrong though...

[tengordon1942]

so humble gr8 man love to meet him

[MrJacksonvill]

Nice interview of a Great Artist.

[pink1222]

[funkateerkitty]

[Lovliqueen]

Does anyone know what video that is @:24 with him in the black leather suit?

[theluminescentone]

@Lovliqueen The video is for a song called Let's Not Play The Game. It was on the Best Man soundtrack.

[hollywoodace19]

@Lovliqueen - Maxwell - Let's Not Play The Game 

[hollywoodace19]

@Lovliqueen The video and song is " Let's Not Play The Game "

[Solful38]

Adriana Evans' albums "Walking With The Night"

& "El Camino" now available in the US on itunes!!!

[MsElaine0035]

Think he said becoming a guy not a god.

[studiofoam]

I love Maxwell's music. I love Maxwell. This interview gave me a new perspective about him. He is a true artist. It was not just about the music and how he perceived himself to be. It's about life. (Zeigeist)

[dlastqueen]

You know what makes him sexy??? Not his looks...his INTEGRITY and CHARACTER that oozes through...

[SterlingRe]

It's great to hear Maxwell being so open about himself, and his life and career in general. He's obviously very intelligent and so gracious for a man of his talents. I can't help but to come away impressed. I didn't know anything about him until I saw him perform " Pretty Wings " during this past years BET awards. It was a jaw dropping performance. I'm a huge fan now!!

[MUARFA]

Smooth brotha.

[maxwelllover1]

no he didnt say become a GOG< he said become a guy.

[N2itv2]

Beautiful Black feeds the world! The awesome gardens of Eden. And the world is a hungry thing while too often being so very lacking in gratitude and truth.

[megarun1]

did he say become a GOD

[ndoss01]

@megarun1 he did.

[Lovliqueen]

@megarun1 he said becoming a "guy".

[riptidesargh]

MAXWELL!!!!!!

[WhereYaBoss]

Maxwell, were you really surprised that we'd be waiting with open arms? No one has that nape-chilling falsetto like you. Even Michael didn't lean on his high notes the way you do. That's your signature, baby. That's what we were waiting for ya. And boy did you deliver!!

[krazikris93]

You know, judging by his unique voice, it seems like it a while to find his voice. I can't imagine him growing up singing, more like the guy that nobody really took that serious. He's great now though I love his album and I can't wait for the second part of the trilogy. It's supposed to be out this year but I doubt it lol

[BrownFoxBoutique]

but please grow the fro back...He is still dope...but I love the hair..

[tweety1tx]

He is so DAMN cute!!! beautiful voice for a beautiful man - and young

[DarkWavesMedia]

I would never ever thought that he would sound gruff in real life...WOW

[cATcHhUppjR8]

dudee, you're maxwell!!

[Steadno]

a real cool guy

[LisaNicoleLopes]

wats da name of da song when da video first come on

[laidyeh]

It's call lifetime.

[tp213]

@LisaNicoleLopes if noone has told you yet its called "Lifetime"

[julie223783]

What a very lucky dip if you were a female and you met him not knowing until afterward, GOD you would have to pinch yourself !! LOL

The older mature classy bloke - looking foward to hearing more. Thanks for posting a "melting moment"

[Sonorite]

He's my inspiration even though we're the same age hahah. I love you Maxwell!

[gooogolf]

you deserved it!

[TheUltimateLady]

I agree with Maxwell. It was amazing how hard he hit us this time around. It was as if he had never left the scene. The latest album is the best yet!

[lilyofthevalley7]

Maxwell seems like a very wise man.

He's cool like that .

[nuno4545]

Maxwell..The UNIC

[jasonito23]

He's smart. He wanted to live life instead of being like Michael Jackson.  He seems down to earth and not burnt out

[lilyofthevalley7]

jasonnito23

You can't compare Maxwell to Michael Jackson. They have two different styles in music. Mj was working since he was 6 yrs old, that's

all he knew was show business. BUT i agree I

wished MJ would have taken more time off to

enjoy life & to find himself more out!

Much love to both Brothers!

[7Know7Thy7Enemy7]

@jasonito23 Unlike Michael Jackson? Why do black people always have to bash other black artist for another one? You nigga's really need to get it together. Michael Jackson did live, he was very private, but yet too big to continue his privacy. Michael put out albums 4-6 years apart. So what are you talking about?

[jasonito23]

@7Know7Thy7Enemy7 I wasn't bashing Michael Jackson. I was saying he didn't want to be like Michael Jackson in that he wanted to have the freedom to walk pleasantly in public. Michael had to go to other countries in order to do that. Michael lived life but he couldn't do it leisurely. He always had to hide. You get yourself together young buck. Nigga? for real? You're still saying that? You must be 14.

[7Know7Thy7Enemy7]

@jasonito23 Okay, good that you cleared that up, maybe I misinterpret what you said wrong. And I call obnoxious blacks "Nigga's" most of the time. In this case, I thought you were obnoxious, now i see you didn't meant it that way.

[TSquared2001]

Good for him.

[PerryINC]

Im trying to get passed the no-hair-look too...but i agree...he..is..HOT. And YES: all women long for men like him!!!!

[ballershanelle]

wow..im still trying to get past the no hair look. yes sexy! but, he looks so ruggled and unashamedly manly! king strains of hair... btw. him and sade are my weakness

[christaylorwashere]

aint no one in the game touch this angels voice!

[allycat797]

Christaylorwashere, you right. He seems real, and I really don't think it's an act. You know how some ppl try really hard to be smart, nice etc.  He really seems like a sincere person.

[Paymenow]

"When you're 20 years old, you're just a sketch of what you're trying to be."

That was a very profound statement he made there.

[Mamou63]

I agree!I turned 24 today and I feel anxious about being a real adult.. but I have no idea who I'll be just giving direction to myself to hopefully reach my destination...

[laidyeh]

You will reach your destination if you will follow the will of God for you life. Be quiet and listen so you can hear him talking to you. I am 53 yrs. old, and wish I could go back to change things in my life. Do some things differently. Mostly, you must have patience!! Can not rush life. Just live each day as God brings it to you. Best wishes baby boi.

[mizunderstood75]

You are a wise woman..I agree completely and totally with you. I am only 34, but it has taken to go through alot of trials and tribulations to really understand this. God bless you.

[elginmanman]

@Paymenow Uhhh, it was when you're in your (twenties) you're just a sketch of what you think you're trying to be, and yes it was a profound statement. I think I may bite that statement and use it as my own.

[donthateonbeyonce]

@Paymenow  no its a true statement i no becase im in my 20s and i have changed a couple of times and planning on recreating myself more which everyone should do from time to time

[kiakasha]

@Paymenow so true!!!

[honeegrrl]

@Paymenow That was a profound statement.

[simsalfred7]

@Paymenow so when you get in your twenties that sets the rest of your life is that what he meant?

[Paymenow]

@simsalfred7

The way I interpreted it (and perhaps someone can articulate it better than me), is that what we think we want to be when we are twenty is not something that is finalized.. in the sense that we are just trying to discover (or perhaps create) who we want to be.

[simsalfred7]

@Paymenow o well when u put it that way it makes since. im just 19 i dont know what ima do in my twenties. acting maybe

[Paymenow]

@simsalfred7

As long as you love doing what you're doing, that's what counts. I know people who are considered rich by many standards, but are unhappy, and I know people who don't have much and are happy (also some are unhappy). Do what you love, but be the best at it.

That's what I've come to learn.

[fede4real]

@simsalfred7 clearly the self discovery experience lasts til around 30.Its said you cant ghange a man once he reaches 30 and I agree.Til then you have your dreams projects and confuse who you want to be and who you really are,also when youa re young you tend to live up to people expectations.When young youa re inocent fresh crazy wiling to take risks make mistakes...When you get older you have expereince,some lessons learned and patience.im about to reach 30 feel that way boy 2 man

[simsalfred7]

@fede4real i get what you are saying. i just learn today in my psychology class that one you reach 25 you can't really be changed, this is a woman professor who told me this. but either way it makes since. i just turn 20 and really dont know what I want to do, but im searching I have nothing but time

[TashaStanley28]

@Paymenow Did you check the police reports on Singer Maxwell in Orlando Florida in regards to child molestation and hacking. Sick man

[allheavens]

@TashaStanley28 Trolls are so annoying. There are no police reports on Maxwell in Orlando are anywhere else. Jesus if you want to smear someone at least be plausible.

[clchawaii09]

All I gotta say is tongue to the mouth hard. Mmmm mmm! That man is fine.

[karian4]

Pls come back to Charlotte, NC. I'll be @ any and every show. Such a breath of fresh air and a gorgeous man, inside and out.

[KFProduction1]

Saw him in Brixton acadamy off the chain Amazing

[Evaluation]

so did i !!! he's bloody gorgeous!!! so glad he's back

[katja8202]

Maxwell, You are the epitome of a "real" man. You are truly one of a kind. You are what women long for. You seem so close

but yet, still so far!!

Classy, Respectful, Talented, Humble

Love always Ladi!!!!!

[niko12man]

@katja8202 michael jackson is that 2

[Mamaluvsmambo]

@katja8202 Honey...you want your man to be great...be his cheerleader. "Still so far".....your man should NEVER hear that! He will get it...trust me. We just need to love our men into greatness. It WILL happen. If you think that is "old school", well I feel sorry for you. It's a man's world...no matter how much we think we have progressed. And you know what, maybe it should be.

[inLA535]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM

[oiohia]

[sarahmcook]

[Davina25323]

he is such a natural talent, and so damn sexy!!!

[medgal7]

Maxwell is definitely the whole package...sexy, talented, articulate, modest....what a beautiful human being!

[Prettywings00]

Ohh Maxwell is BEYOND sexy... Not just physically, his swagger is too mysterious.. he makes the panties and draws drop alike. Love him.

[maxwelllover1]

what do you mean drawers.what are u sayng, that men are atrtacted to him too?

[Prettywings00]

Thats exactly what im saying. He's very spiritual and believes in no color or line for sexuality.. Thats why so many men and woman love maxwell. Men find him sexy and so do woman.

[maxwelllover1]

what are you implying. that maxwell is bisexual. you need to shut the up.

[maxwelllover1]

shut up, you dont even know him, so how would you know anything as personal as his sexual prefernces? you must be gay......

[Prettywings00]

Bitch you must be retarded! I never said he was gay you dumb ass! I said he doesn't see sexuality as black or white... WHICH MEANS HE DOESNT JUDGE PEOPLE. And i went to see him 4 times in concert boo, I am a fan.. SO fuck you and learn how to read. and a AM GAY... SO what the FUCK are you trying to say? You made yourself look stupid.. YEah right.... ur a fan? lol fuck off.

[maxwelllover1]

wow...can you even express yourself without the cuss words? . YOU MUST BE IGNORANT. going to 4 concerts doesn't make you a expert on his sexuality .who cares that your a fag!

[anwarj]

Hi can I know the track that starts at 1:02? Thanks!

[Prettywings00]

Hey! the song is called "Ascension"

[anwarj]

Thanks man

[Prettywings00]

no problem

[maxwelllover1]

wow, i doult if you speak for maxwell and his sexuaity.....not with that potty mouth... maxwell defines class... you obviously have none.and you wonder why people hate hags.

[SkyllaRock1]

omg i could just grab him and kiss him.

[TheShadowswords]

So soulful and so eloquent. He is an inspiration! But i have to say i prefered his afro to the short hair... it really suited his style and he stood out from the crowd. But at the end of the day his music is the main thing and that makes him stand out enough

[poprincessa]

Yes ladies not only is he hot and sexy and all that. He also has a brain and knows how to use it, and yes again he is really hot...lol

[Aroma2]

Good to see he's not only a great artist but also a great person

[AL7962]

MAXWELL LOOKS GREAT AND IS VERY SEXY.

[mikestamlo]

damn, he's hot as hell!

[HisDaughter88]

He's grown so much as an artist and as a man...wow

[Leceeyah91]

luv you maxwell muah! take care

[lizzeedee]

[htownhomie06]

his fanbase is deeply, incredibly loyal 4 real. it's VERY, VERY, VERY few artists of any genre out 2day who could go away 4 almost a decade & come back w/out losing a bit -- and having people still fiendin 4 ur music.

[nzingamina]

Made love to many of his songs.  Thank you Maxwell for your beautiful voice and addictive music. When you come the DC area...will be at your concert.

[souljagurltellem111]

his sexy self haha :P

[Prettywings00]

Maxwell is in the ranking of the best young male vocalists of the 90s. I still remember listening to singers like Maxwell, Tevin Campbell, And Jesse Powell. Really defining talents who moved R&B to another vocal plateau.

[Shadeja16]

maxwell is sooooooooo sexy i love em welcome bak maxwell he is da real definition of r&B u go maxwell

[cherrykoolaid95]

SEXY is all i can say... i luv him so much

[TashaG16]

He look so much better.

[nene123123]

i agree

[shakmdown]

Where are the men like Maxwell...I must be looking in ALL the wrong places...I just want to see them!

[jarbon5]

Glad that he is back, he has been sorely missed. Few artists can do what he does, or do it as well as he.

[cherrykoolaid95]

he is so sexy omg it's ridiculous...

[westside159]

I can vibe to Maxwell's music , he is real R&B music that everybody can feel .

[HarrowHoneyz]
