After a seven year hiatus Maxwell has burst back onto the scene and charts with the second album in what is to be a trilogy: blackSUMMERS’night. Maxwell's last album, BLACKsummers’night, was released back in 2009. Although the names are highly confusing, we ain't mad at some new Maxwell, confusing name or not. The album arrives just in time for the long 4th of July weekend. The reviews are filtering in and it's good, really good.

Stream the project on Spotify or iTunes but ain't nothing like a physical copy for such a sensual record. Cop the vinyl from the OKP Shop. And if you can, try to catch Maxwell on tour.
