About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Maxwell's ambition was one of the appealing qualities of his debut, Urban Hang Suite, especially since very few of his contemporaries were attempting to expand the boundaries of contemporary R&B. On his second album, Embrya, Maxwell reveals his desire to make deep, serious music. He wants to be so much more than just another soul crooner and, to be sure, he does have a remarkable voice and can write really good modern soul songs, despite his tendency to think that's not enough. As it stands, Embrya still has its promising moments despite sometimes obscuring the singer's gifts. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

July 01, 2003: I love this album because it is creative and stretches boundaries. I describe the album as lush, full of texture, layers, themes, and rhythms. I always found myself drifting blissfully away from reality!

June 18, 2002: I am a great fan of Maxwell's. This album is awesome from beginnning to end. It is capitivating, mellow, smooth, and so much more. This album was not given its just do in the industry because it doesn't fall into the typical mainstream category. Anyone willing to open their mind and appreciate good music, will agree that this is truly a work of art. I can listen to this album over, and over, and over again! A definite must have.
