^Maxwell himself wrote that, it's from his Twitter. Oh, never mind. Just ignore my post. I read it as "complaint," not "compliment"... LOL

I'm mad adding catalog albums to the chart has pushed him into the 100s. I hope FOT can help the album rebound; he just has to sell 1mil with this!

He has alot of promo going on now, CNN Heroes, Grammy nom concert, free Grammy museum Concert, $9.99 in Best Buy, $5 on amazon so he has the price points. However, sales are horrible across the board but he may be able to sneak in at 1mil by 12/31 but I doubt it,- However, if he gets mad grammy nomds and buzz, anything is possible.

I'm so proud of the guy. Still can't get over how he went away for 8 long years, only to come back w/ this effort. Wow... And not only that, the people really came out & supported it. There is hope for the music industry (haha...).

I am SOOOOOOO happy about the nom for "Love You," I adore that song. And he has a really strong chance of winning it. I wish they'd release it as a single.

Yay so he got six nominations? That's great. He will win R&B album and Male Vocal. So he'll at least win two.

Was glad to see him get so many nominations. An AOTY nomination would have been the perfect cherry, but no biggie.
