R&B singer Maxwell has cancelled his short U.S. tour after developing vocal swelling and hemorrhaging.
A representative for the singer said Friday that he has been advised by doctors to rest and undergo treatment. Maxwell's six-date summer tour had shows planned for Los Angeles, Atlanta and Newark, N.J. for July and August.
Maxwell said in the statement that cancelling the tour "sucks" and he plans to hit the road when his new album, "blackSUMMERS'night, " is released later this year.
The 39-year-old made his return to music in 2009 after a seven-year break with the platinum album "BLACKsummers'night. " It won the singer-songwriter two Grammy Awards, among other accolades.
The statement also said refunds are available at the point of purchase.

In case you don’t understand what the rap/hip-hop industry is really about, let me explain it to you as clearly as I can: rappers, hip-hop artists, anyone who works in that industry HATES black women. The industry is built upon degrading black women in order to turn a buck. To them, the black female body is simply grist for the mill. If you, or anyone you know, is still buying mainstream rap or hip-hop you are supporting coonery with a capital C–you are paying for your own degradation.
Honestly, I think any black woman who still buys mainstream rap/hip-hop hates herself, or, at the very least thinks that somehow the degrading of black women in general will not affect her in particular. Or either she is as dumb as a bag of rocks.
Thats horrible. Unfortunately I happen to notice with some of the artists over the past few years that seem to be straining or croaking when they sing live (think Alicia Keys) sometimes end up with vocal problems. I had seen a couple of live performances of his and he'd have this moment mid song where he sounded hoarse like he was forcing himself to get it out.
I hope he rests and gets better soon (and releases those other albums he was tellin us about)

Re: Maxwell Cancels Tour After Vocal Hemorrhaging
OP did you put this in the Music Alley forum or did the MODs move it?
I'm curious as to why a talented grammy award winning artist like Maxwell is not in the Celebrity Gossip forum. I mean, there are 50/11 threads about someone who got a come up for a sex tape in that forum so why not Maxwell.
And when doing a search for Maxwell this thread DOES NOT come up. Let the duplicate threads begin...
