What does the org think of Maxwells Urban Hang Suite

Not a huge Maxwell fan, but this was probably the best album of the "Neo Soul" era artists. "Old man's gotta be the old man. Fish has got to be the fish." | |

This one seems to be the fave among his fans and/or casual fans.
I think my fave is "Embrya". | |

Still one of the landmark recordings from the 90's. It was a huge leap for the whole R&B game and Maxwell killed it with this one. I still play this album... Check me out and add me on:

I never got the big deal
about Maxwell... his stuff is nice but a bit boring to me I haven't matured to his level just yet Embrya I do own and enjoy but it's not very often I dig for a Maxwell record because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

It's a great album (his best IMO), but I think it's very overrated. At the risk of bringing up a tired old comparison, I don't think it holds a candle to either of D'Angelo's albums. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Very good album. I still play it and its his best. (4.5/5)
It was always compared with D'Angelo's 'Brown Sugar'. | |

Top 10 fave album of all time. I still feels fresh everytime I listen to it. I  Maxwell. He could sing the 50 states to me."Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!
"It's just my imagination, once again running away with me." | |

I love this album. It is one of my top favorites from the 90s. This album was one of the few that actually brought back different elements of r&b music that had kind of gotten lost in the NJS era. Some people classify this album as neo soul, but I think its a straight-up r&b album. How can anyone not like Acension. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I've always liked whatever I heard from Maxwell so this might be one that I'll finally pick up. | |

Please. Can we reserve "classic" for truly deserving projects? Like Alice Smith's killer album?  | |

This is one of my 'best of best' - I can listen to this album from start to finish and love every minute. "I know that living with u baby, was sometimes hard...but I'm willing 2 give it another try.
Cause nothing compares....nothing compares 2 u!" | |
