    Maxwell was a LEGEND in the making. Watch his 90s performance of "Sumthin' Sumthin'" on Soul Train! czcams.com/video/tEXGmGjsH8g/video.html

      He is cringe AF. Check out his gestures and dance steps, the embarrassment rate is crazy. Let's be honest, the guy is has been. He was already 20 years ago when D'Angelo (for example) was at the top.

    Maxwell is and will always be the king of falsetto! He puts on a great performance, is aging backwards and has energy out this world. I thoroughly enjoyed this. I’m a little disappointed that he didn’t perform the classics “this woman’s work” and “pretty wings”. Those songs in my opinion were very pivotal to his career, especially “this woman’s work” but regardless, this performance was amazing and he put on a show baby!!!!

      Love! Love! Love! Me some Maxwell! However, the Legendary "Phillip Baily" is the "Original King of the Falsetto ". Maxwell has mastered the art of the Falsetto though for sure and is smooth with it.
