Maxwell is giving fans what they've wanted for quite some time: a tour where he performs all of the material on his albums. The Brooklyn-born singer will embark on a six-day trek beginning this summer.

Billboard reports that the 38-year-old crooner will hit three major cities commencing in July -- Los Angeles, Atlanta and New Jersey -- for two nights each, where he'll perform his four LPs in full: 1996's Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite, 1998's Embrya, 2001's Now and 2009's BLACKsummers'night.

The crooner, backed by an 11-piece band, is set to move through his first two albums -- Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite and Embrya -- on the first night in each city and the latter two albums on the second night -- Now and BLACKsummers'night.
