BLACKsummers’night | Maxwell
Title The first album in eight years from this neo-soul pioneer would have made our list based on the ethereal beauty of lead single “Pretty Wings” alone. Yet BLACKsummers’night—the first installment in a planned trilogy that the singer says will take him through 2011—actually worked wonders from beginning to end. And not just in the bedroom, either: Maxwell’s knack for studio-rat texture and beat-fiend grooves has never been sharper than it is throughout these nine songs. As for the bedroom, well, the guy routinely pulled off a version of pillow talk that would make a lesser man blush. Like on the album’s opener “Bad Habits,” where he sings, “I want you to prove it to me in the nude” and it sounded like he was doing you a solid.
