Let's Not Play The Game
The Best Man (Motion Picture Soundtrack) Lyrics

ikay udo

Found myself humming this track before bedtime outta nowhere! Had to come see the video again. Cant believe it's been 21 years since I first heard this track. I miss great music. Makes u wonder why music is going backwards and not forward.

It’s the slow gradual degradation and decay of the society at large.

Nihjer Richardson

Marlen Segura and I don't find him to be good vocalist but artistry is top quality.

Christina Mitchell

I'm in love with this song and video, I love the black love. I love how they are sprayed with this golden seal over their bodies as to depict royalty, adding the men from the movie is a great additional touch as well.

Margaret E. Felder

Maxwell

you can uplift one without tearing down a set of others … not everything has to be a comparison 📍 let go of the nostalgia. there’s plenty of Maxwell-inspired artists out there

Quiet Storm

Michael Coleman

A Classic.... Period

Nicole Nicole333

I followed Maxwell music since I first heard his voice. All I said was gotta hear this brother and ran out and got it. Ever since I was hooked to his music and Sade music. Thank you for the years of your beautiful voice, and coming back even better. God bless 🙏👏👏👏✌💋💜💝💕

My Thoughts Are Not His Thoughts

SLIDE&COUNTER

My favorite Maxwell song ever 🔥 this song be having me dancing like a Fool Lol 😁🤣

Lanee Herndon

This is my FAVORITE song of his, because its a dance track and the lyrics are the truth. Every since my first concert of his in 1997 till now 2014, I been calling him my dancing buddy! The music moves him in his own way, which I can sooooo relate to as a dancer myself. This video proves it!!! Luv this man and his music!!

Akiki Hauser

MarquesTheProducer

@Walking-MY-Path taste is subjective … not everybody likes what you like. views mean nothing 👀

Walking-MY-Path

Cause today's people not all but most of them have shit taste for Music period. That's why!!

Michelle Clark

One of my favorites by my man Max

Fatu Pelima

2:14 I've seen this video since it came and I'm just now fully appreciating Maxwell's tight ass moves. 🕺🏾

London King

My song! Still the business! 🔥🔥

Rickey Gee TV

This song came out back in '99. I was thinking that he would be putting out an album in that same year. Little did I know that it would be 2 more years that I would have to wait to hear another album produced by him. I love his music, but he has annoying habit of making us wait to hear his music. I am so glad to know that he will be dropping a new album this summer !

Terry Floyd

I love me some Maxwell

Evangelina Floyd

YAY

s8f360

Calmchaos

11 years on this is still such a damn BOP. Thanks for continuously blessing us Maxwell. 🙌🏾

DeAnna Mckinney

The whole cast of Best Man was in this video acting up all them are married and looked like kids in the candy store.. lol

Me Nas

This was the soundtrack of their movie, so it is only fair they all should be in it. The movie, the lyrics of the song, the concept of the music video, all makes it wonderful.

M. Sodangi

Haha, just noticing this for the first time.

K M Weekes

Joseph Moore Um...no. They married women whom they fell in love with. Doesn’t mean any of that. 😒

Christina Mitchell

@Joseph Moore I don't know everyone's business but I know Morris chestnut is married to a black women a real one.
Taye diggs looks like he was really feeling it..lol ..like he's thinking 'thats right I forgot how wonderful it is to be close to my women" ...lol

Dine and Serve with CiCi

Joseph Moore Morris Chestnuts has a black wife (caramel brown) and beautiful brown children. You’re right about Taye Diggs, Harold Perrineau, and looney tunes Terrence Howard. I believe they were all sexually attracted to the women in the video but that’s all it usually is for many black men. They’ll have sex with black women all day long but never view them as good enough to marry and settle down with.

lovejoypain

I LOVE the freeze frames at 2.50...gorgeous

Dnomyar Akunawik

Love the song and the beautiful shades of black!

Walking-MY-Path

This song and MV is super 🔥 and badass even in the year 2021.

Imperatrix Baraka EL High Priestess of Anu

The original man and woman ARE the blueprint of beauty. The mothers and fathers of all people. You can truly FEEL the presence. Love my people so much!!! ✊🏾
Mad love to Maxwell and the crew for this video.

Sonya Gibbs

Lordy, those thighs...and those big hands..His curl pattern was sick. Ooh Weeee!

Sonya Gibbs

This is a tight cut...never saw it before. The best he's ever looked. I wish he'd kept his hair. Made him unique and large part of his image. Ppl would kill for a beautiful head of hair like he had. Just looks like an ordinary black business man with out it.

Maxwell
