Popping up on these pages for the first time, the generational talent Maxwell and his latest are turning heads and opening ears. “Fingers Crossed,” the fifth preview ahead of his forthcoming album blackSUMMERS’night, is a rhythmic and passionate jam infusing jazz and soul elements for a perfect fit.
And the accompanying lyric video is a double dose of cool as the District’s own Warren Snipe, a rapper who happens to be deaf, conveys Maxwell’s devotion through sign language. Stream below and don’t miss blackSUMMERS’night out this Friday July 1 via Columbia Records.
