If you’re looking for a definitive and specific answer from Maxwell about when the long-awaited third part of his planned trilogy of albums will finally come out, well, unfortunately, the R&B singer is not quite there yet.
In the summer of 2016 — seven years after the debut of Part 1 (titled “BLACKsummers’night”) and just as Part 2 (“blackSUMMERS’night”) was being released — he went on record as saying he’d be done with it that fall. Five years later, Part 3 still wasn’t out, but was promised as a spring ’22 release when he announced a 2022 tour and dropped the new single “OFF” last November.
But once again, it missed its target, with no sign of “blacksummers’NIGHT” when he launched “The Night Tour” in Dallas on March 2.
