In July 2009, the modern R&B and soul master debuted at the number 1 spot on the Billboard 200 with his long-awaited Blacksummers Night, one of the year’s most heavily-anticipated event albums. Blacksummers Night was certified platinum on January 19, 2010. Maxwell also returned to the top of the nation’s singles charts in 2009 when Pretty Wings, the first single from Blacksummers Night, rocketed to the number 1 slot on America’s Urban Adult radio stations less than eight weeks after its release after completing an earlier run as the nation’s number 1 Greatest Gainer / Most-Added song at the Urban Mainstream format. With Blacksummers Night, his first studio album in eight years, Maxwell took home his first two Grammy Awards: Best R&B Album and Best Male R&B Vocal Performance (for Pretty Wings, a 2010 Song of the Year nominee) as well as his first NAACP Image Award (as 2010’s Outstanding Male Artist).
