The Charts Update (September 12, 2009)
Interesting. Though Maxwell slipped 6 positions down on the Billboard 200 chart (still in the Top 20), Pretty Wings is still resting comfortably as the number 1 song on the R&B/Hip Hop Songs chart. PRETTY WINGS is also seeing a spincrease in stations playing RHYTHMIC and SMOOTH AC (formerly Smooth Jazz) music. Currently working on updating the Radio Request page.

I am so happy for M. I can’t think of anyone more deserving of these accolades. He is just such a genuine, humble person and a gifted artist. And not to mention drop dead gorgeous with his grown and sexy self. I love you Maxwell!!!!!
