Maxwell- "Sumthin, Sumthin"- Chris Rock Show 97

[@patriciadavis1393]

This is vintage Maxwell❤❤❤❤ he is the sexiest man in R&B❤❤❤

[@allheavens]

Met him back in the day. Very sweet, almost painfully shy. NOTHING like the persona he presented on stage. It was kinda refreshing.

[@jonsmith848]

Ditto. Met him about a year b4 the CD was released. Yes..very quiet

[@camillegonsalves349]

That's awesome. I love shy folks! You need to be around me cause I'm just the opposite and ya know there gotta be a Yin to every Yang so come to ME, Maxwell! 😁🤤😍

[@modelchic99]

This man should have been a model. Maxwell is so handsome.

[@Walking-MY-Path]

I agree.

[@cocovernon8394]

Just a young, gorgeous cup of caramel mocha!!!!❤💋

[@lauriemiller3692]

Just the right height and size

[@deborahday1786]

Yes. ❤

[@patdavis6003]

Maxwell has so much swag you can't teach that you either have it or you don't

[@patdavis6003]

I love how he dresses he always looks classy

[@LaCheleWallace]

A little shumptin, shumptin'! The groove on this song is undeniable. This whole album still knocks today. You are all right with me, Maxwell.

[@ROYAL_REBEL]

Still knocks in 2021

[@SelfLove4eva]

Maxwell over there looking like a snack. I can’t even focus on the music. 😍

[@marshalldamons2663]

Not a manufactured singer...just a pure artist and performer. June 2024

[@misskim8379]

I live for his live versions. 😩🥰🥰 Sounds exactly like the record. Not many artists sound that amazing live. ❤❤

[@lucileb1754]

Exactly 🇨🇵🙋‍♀️

[@lalasmart6709]

Maxwell was sexy back in the day, his hair twenty years was the trend setter for Brothers today! Music is so smooth. He’s an amazing talent.🎶

[@skqq3250]

Yes, yes, yes. This is what i'm talking about: style, hair and swag!!!!!!! to the max!!!!!

[@KimEagle-u7e]

I was Blessed to go to 1 Orlando MAXWELL Concert and He is PERFECT LIVE ❤ 7/13/2024

[@BossDogg39]

I would have to say... Only a handful in the 90's got my approval.. Maxwell was 1 of them. He's soulful. He's in charge of his band and rules with smooth command.. I love this here

[@Walking-MY-Path]

What do you think of D'Angelo, Joe Thomas, Donell Jones, and Jon B.?

[@roxannedunlop1044]

@@Walking-MY-Path love all of them

[@Devtr3]

when he said "shut yo mouth"..... if you didn't feel some type of way you're not human

[@Walking-MY-Path]

FACTS!! Lolz.

[@tcg1972]

I shut up immediately. Lol.

[@perry123mason]

Maxwell knows how to perform. You do not have to many entertainers today who knows how to both sing and performance. You definitely get your money worth when you go and see him in concert. Rock On!

[@cmason7007]

he was so sexy with that hairstyle and what a unique voice and the base!!!IHe changed his hairstyle etc not to be reduced to his looks and taken seriously as an artist...but who wouldn t?Nothing wrong with looking good and be able to deliver!And he does.His live performances are unforgettable and the band...wow!Still love n pumping it today!

[@FirstPersonHood]

He didn't need to change anything. He was always considered A+++++ Maxwell was signed to a special genius contract with Columbia Records as a new artist. The contract allows him freedom to create music at his pace. He took 7 years off because he is a songwriter and he has a genius. contract.

[@mahlet77]

Sexiest-smoothest-talented man/artist alive! I can’t get enough. This is a timeless treasure. Maxwell, you were truly truly ahead of your time. The talent you shared with your fans in the 90s was and still is a work of art, God given skill. You were and still are an extraordinaire artist. Thank God for you and the work you’ve shared with us, We love you Maxwell. 🌹♥️🌸🌺♠️🌷

[@lisagivens8995]

The first time ever l saw his face......let's just say "raw, sexy and CLASSY! Always full of surprises. SO REAL ABOUT HUMAN NATURE...

[@BuzzBee74]

Just saw Maxwell live. He finally toured Australia as part of Soulfest. Well worth the 20 year wait! Neosoulgroovefunkalicious!! Sensational!!! At 41 he's still making the ladies all sWEaTy.

[@Walking-MY-Path]

"And wetter than the Great Niagara Falls."

[@brownlove6138]

I was so fortunate See him in concert in 1999 Boston strong. For my birthday and he shook my hand I still have my Ticket receipts 22Years later. In my T-shirt with his face on it. He is truly one of my favorite artists. Then my youngest daughter took many see miss Gladys Knight, it was magical as well. classic beautiful black people. I can say I was proud to be in their presence..❤🙏🏽🎙❤

When I die I want to come back as Maxwell's lips! ❤❤❤

[@andreghouse6069]

To those 6 knuckle heads who disliked this song, need to get the number for an ear doctor from the yellow pages. Man this guy is the smoothest since Marvin Gaye and Smokey, Luther or Teddy Pendergrast. I been listening to this cat since his first album was released, I love his way as much now as back then.

[@ChareeseAtl]

He is soooo silky!!! I want him

[@BossDogg39]

Was it that good? lol... yes it was.. lol. He blew this up. And when he said.. "Shut yo mouth" That set it off. no lie.. He threw down on this...

[@lauriemiller3692]

You know I got a ziploc on these lips

[@alisinclair6521]

Imagine a duet with Maxwell and Marvin Gaye....

[@ashleymoreful]

That would be so epic omg just imagine it.

[@MrQmason]

[@HansumTrini]

True! What about D'Angelo and Maxwell on the same stage...!

[@stephenmarsh7391]

His voice and his songs are timeless. I was in love with this album when it came out and it's still on my playlist. A beautiful man inside and out.

[@IronMan-tk8uc]

1997 - seems like a world ago, when R&B was at the maximum peak of quality, such a decade. Sad that I was only 4 at the time.

[@mrmartywaring]

I was in the mix of that era. Great time for music.

[@IronMan-tk8uc]

+Martin Waring I know, right. I should be in my 30s or 40s now, then I would contemplate all of this.
