Maxwell wins first two Grammy Awards
Maxwell took home his first two Grammy Awards last Sunday at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards. In the past, he’s been nominated for a total of six awards.
His song “Pretty Wings” won for ‘Best Male R&B Vocal Performance; and his album “Blacksummers’ Night” won for ‘Best R&B Album.’
He was also nominated for four other Grammy Awards: ‘Song of the Year’ went to “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” by Beyonce; ‘Best Male Pop Vocal Performance’ went to Jason Mraz; ‘Best Pop Instrumental Performance’ went to Bela Fleck; and ‘Best R&B Song’ went to “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).”
“To get Grammys, and to even be included in a community of musicians [like this], it’s just such a blessing,” Maxwell told MTV. “And then to have this wonderful legend, Roberta Flack, come walking out with this song, she’s just amazing. I felt like I was suspended in animation. It was really surreal to me to be on that stage.”
