Our favorite R&B hottie Maxwell, has landed on the Billboard Top 200 at #1 this week with his long-awaited fourth studio album “BLACKsummers’night”.
With first week’s sales of 316,499, according to SoundScan, BLACKsummers’night is enjoying the highest debut sales week, and best overall sales week of Maxwell’s career. BLACKsummers’night is #1 on the SoundScan Album Retailer chart and is #1 on the Current R&B chart.
This is Maxwell’s first album since “Now”, which also debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 in August 2001.
Maxwell returned to the top of the singles charts when “Pretty Wings”, the first single from “BLACKsummers’night”, shot to the #1 slot on America’s Urban Adult radio. Pretty Wings has spent four weeks in the #1 spot of Billboard’s Hot Singles Sales chart, where it’s closely followed by “Cold”, another single from “BLACKsummers’night.”
