Maxwell is way cute so as a female thats bought his shit from the beginning it would be an adjustment to hear him singing about men lol But I'd still buy it b/c I dig his music (hopefully the music would be good, since that's what it's all about) & I'd get used to it. His voice is wonderful & hopefully always will be smile

Like Rhonda said (Rhonda, you are KILLING me this morning w/ Eddie's inclusion & hoeing after the show!! lol ) it does kill the fantasy. But we don't buy their music just for the fantasy, it can be a part of it though when you find an artist attractive.

It's funny though that no one can list any lyrics - I'm curious about what's being said. Is it blatant? Nasty? Clever? What's making the label freak out so bad, I wanna know hmmm

Luther always sang about women, we all know the truth...

It took MeShell a while to sing about women...

George Michael sang about women...

Who cares, as long as the music is good...



and what does it say about me that when Meshell sangs Pocketbook that I think she's singin' to me...eek That's HOT!!! for real though.... lol


and Lutha has some very ambiguous lyrics.....but we loved him anyway...

Rahsaan is gay as gay can be....but I LOVE HIM...

We love Maxie....gay, straight or whatever...just release the damn cd...

being gay would make him no longer one of your favorite artists? confuse



YES! Now whut?!
You know that women fantasise about Prince and Maxwell and you know that would kill the fantasy. So, in effect, your answer could be YES. Most women don't want to fantasize about a man that they know likes men. She probably likes to think that Max is singing to her and only her. If it doesn't apply to her, I know several women it does apply to and that would be your answer. Now whut?!

[Edited 1/8/06 20:44pm]


Blaque is right. The only gay artist for whom sexual orientation wouldn't matter would be Luther, God rest his soul. Everyone KNEW that man was gay and didn't care. Maxwell, however, built this image as a ladies' man and is different.

I kinda disagree on Prince because that was his appeal: he dressed, sang and flirted like a woman but "got down" like a man. IMHO, that drove a lot of women bonkers over him!

Maxwell sang about love, but I don't think he proclaimed himself a ladies man. He's alone in most of his videos

Many, not "most." He had enough women in his videos to promote that image. Hell, Urban Hang Suite was, by his public accounts, about a woman who met and dumped him over the course of a weekend. Some of his songs were amorphous when it came to "love," true, but when he personalized his songs, they were always in the "she." For practical reasons? Maybe.

I went to a Maxwell concert a few years back and i got vibes that he was holding back from really letting go of his sexual energy on stage. Now with that, the thought that maybe he was "gay" crossed my mind for millisecond, but that really doesn't mean anything. He might just be a conservative straight guy...or maybe he just does his freaky things in private and not on stage..we don't actually know unless we climb a tree outside of his house and spy on him outside his bedroom window....

whether he's gay or not, i still love Maxwell's music, i'll definitely be picking up the next album because it is long overdue..... smile
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I can't believe some of this shit. Women, PUH-LEEEEAAAAAZZZZZEEEEE don't act like you've never had a "what if" fantasy about a gay man. I'll let a chick know REAL fast that I play for the home team, and that won't stop them from hitting on me. Ya'll view that shit as a challenge. That "I bet I can make him straight" bullshit. Just listen to the music. Damn.

I'm not saying he is gay, just he might not be straight either. Ananda Lewis said some years ago they had a sexual relationship. I do remember when Chris (somebody) was hosting VIBE and Maxwell was being interviewed while Lela Rochon was next to him (she had just been interviewed) and Chris kept teasing like they should hook up and Lela kept saying "Chris!" like a protective mom. Chris thought it was hilarious for some reason and I was like hmmm

Did Luther ever sing about "he"? Or George Michael, before he came out?

Yea, some women are like that nod But for me honestly, when I find out a dude is gay it just kills it for me in terms of being sexually attracted lol Why fantasize when I have no shot in hell? Not that I'd have a shot w/ Maxwell ANYWAY but damn, at least I got a pussy he can fall into if he's straight lol

Many of his songs were about "love" or he sang to someone named "baby." But everybody seemed to "know" as time went on that Luther was gay.

I remember laughing so hard at that "Can I Take You Out Tonight?" video. Luther was SO not convincing in trying to mack on Gabrielle. I wasn't mocking him, I was laughing because, just IMHO, Luther was trying to maintain a facade when he didn't HAVE to.

Maxwell is expected to release his long awaited new CD this year. Unfortunately the February release date is not happening, it's been delayed. Hopefully it will be out in the Spring.

I personally don't care about his sexual orientation.

The guy is an awesome singer/musician.

the situation you've described is the fan/heart-throb relationship. not the fan/artist relationship. but even going with your notion... perhaps a white man loved Mariah Carey as an "artist" until he found out she was half black, because he's white and only likes to fantasize about white women. would that be acceptable to you as well?

oh, and by the way. she answered the question for herself, so i'm not sure why you were butting in in the first place.




So what if it is a fan/heartthrob relationship? Maxwell can't be a heartthrob? The very nature of the question was leading towards defensiveness. That happens on here a LOT. Nobody's trying to take all the gays away but hetrosexuals shouldn't have to apologize for liking someone because they are physically attracted to them and them being gay would detract from that fantasy, thereby detracting from the appeal that said artist would have to them. There are a lot of women who wouldn't like Prince as much if he wasn't a pretty boy. Many will never admit it but its true.
I butted in because this is a message board. Its public. I can. Whut?!


DAYUM !!!

You're right.
Labels won't let artist be artistic anymore.
He should be able to write whatever he wants and let his audience make the choice as to whether or not they want to support it. I understand and so do you but the restof the world are lemmings when it comes to music. They won't take the Clear Channel I.V. out of their arms. As long as "the machine" rules, tht's how its probably gonna be. They've backed themselves into a corner as to where they HAVE to follow formula. Its crippling genres across the board.
Image rules.

Tell it, Blaque.
