THE MAGIC OF MAXWELL

Where were YOU on Friday night {10/16/09}???
The Hollywood Bowl was the place to be!

Chrisette Michelle, Common, and Maxwell all graced us with their presence.  The sky was clear, the temperature just right {75-80°}, crowd was gorgeous, and the music was so sweet - what a beautiful night!  The view from the front row was unsurpassed {our seats came with their very own security detail to add!}.  Common flirted with my PIC {partner-in-crime} and I throughout his entire performance, and even summoned her up to the stage to romance & plant a kiss on her! Of course this was captured on the jumbo-tron, making her an honorary "star" of the show! Cute! 

Common definitely deserves a style award. His fashion game was certainly on point - he's got a smooth Chicago street meets chic flavor going on & was rocking fresh jeans, a crew-neck sweater, with a shirt & tie underneath - all perfectly complementing his baldness.  How handsome! {I think Serena W. knows it too. She was only 1 step behind him at the after-party!}

Common had the crowd on it's feet with hits: 'The Light' {my fave Common song} & 'Universal Mind Control' and even featured singer Bilal during his set, who sang that smooth & sexy 'Soul Sister' cut from back in the day!

Maxwell shut it down with 'This Woman's Work', 'Possum Playing' & 'Pretty Wings' {among many other incredible songs}.  The Bowl is now at the top of my "Favorite Venues" list!

So much fun. Photos to come...

BLACK SUMMER'S NIGHT

Could this album be any more anticipated?
(Listen to 'Bad Habits'... a new song off the upcoming album!)

The buzz is that Maxwell, Prince of smooth, soulful and even neo-soulful R&B sounds, is set to release a trilogy of albums, 1-by-1 over a period of 3 years titled, "Black Summer's Night"! He announced via Twitter this week that the date for the first installment to drop, is 7/07/09! I can almost guarantee that lots of babies will be made to this Hall-of-Fame album!

3 Albums I'd bring with me to a deserted Island:

  1. The Miseducation of Lauren Hill
  2. Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite
  3. Michael Jackson's Thriller
