Maxwell may have ditched the epic 'fro but he hasn't lost his silky touch as he prepares to release blackSUMMERS'night, his first album in seven years .Yesterday he shared another single "Gods," which follows in his cryptic yet sensual lyrical style. It is not nearly as exquisite as his previous single "1990x," one of the best R&B songs released this year.
Maxwell spoke on blackSUMMERS'night, which is due out July 1, in an interview with Bay Area radio outfit KMEL yesterday. ”We put a lot of love," he said. "There’s real life in there. There’s real experience and real musicianship so I hope you enjoy it.”
Quotable Lyrics
If you want you can fly, you can float
You can walk, you can do what you want
But if the smallest seed of feeling is left in you
You will see you were wrong
