What Happened to Maxwell?

I'm sure a lot of you have asked yourself this question at least once or twice in the past 5 or 6 years. Well, I'm happy to report that I have an answer for you.

Maxwell's smooth and sexy neo-soul sound has been greatly missed. He's released some unforgetable tracks like "This Woman's Work" and "Fortunate" that are a must if you're putting together any slow jams mix CD. These songs have definitely left his fans wanting more.

According to his record label, Columbia, we will be hearing plenty from Maxwell in the near future. His next project, Black Summer's Night, will be released as a trilogy with one release per year beginning in '07. Billboard reported that his album would be released this month, but it has yet to be confirmed.

However, you can find a little bit of a preview on Maxwell's MySpace page. You can't hear the first single in its entirety yet. Although he's left a voice blog on the page apologizing for the delay, you can still hear the new music in the background. Click here to listen to the message and check out his new look.
