When you watch Frankie live back in the 80’s with Maze, I honestly think he was one of the most coolest men and natural performers ever. He made it look effortless

You may not have won an award or Grammy ...but your music is written on the hearts and minds of the people all over the World...Congratulations FRANKIE BEVERLY AND MAZE.......

Thank you Roland for bring us Maze featuring Frankie Beverly❤️.

At 47, I grew up listening to Maze & Frankie Beverly.. The mainstream collectives don't have to give them awards, cause WE give them awards.. Their DRUMMER is a BEAST too!!!

Frankie is a whole National Treasure.....No award he and Maze could win, would fully reflect how amazing this group is, and the impact they've made on Black Culture- and the music business as a whole. He comes across as a man thankful for his journey - good and bad - and humbled by the success , instead of being arrogant like so many other artists out here. His stories are mesmerizing...and his memory is incredible. Live long Frankie...This world needs your message. Thank you for the greatest music in MY lifetime.

Frankie is the coolest cat that ever existed or ever will exist..

Still a fan 40 plus years later!

I have said for years, Maze is Black Folks Grateful Dead band. Fans for life. They deserved more accolades than they have ever received. It's a great sound that evokes great feelings!

The most down to earth artist I've ever seen or heard. 🎶🎵🎸🎤👊🏽👍🏽

I love Maze. One of the greatest groups in the world.

Frankie Beverly and Maze deserve every award that's out there!!!! They're music transcends every generation they are genuine soul and that's what the world of music needs to get back to.....

I can't even put into words how much I love 🥰 Maze featuring Frankie Beverly. Their music has always touched me in a loving and spiritual way. It doesn't matter whether they make new music or not, their music lives forever! I've been following him since the beginning, and will continue until...

Wonderful interview; Frankie is still the man.....THank you Frankie Beverly & Maze for all the fun!!

I am from the UK living in Florida now. We have been playing Frankie Beverley and the Butlers 'if that's what you wanted', 'follow your heart' since early 70's and they still fill dance floors today all over the world. Fast forward to Maze and they continue to kill it, all over the world.

They kept their SOUL, that's why they're still standing TALL AND BOLD. I CAME UP ON THIS GROUP. I SALUTE REAL LEGEND.

Frankie Beverly & Maze has released timeless music that touched millions of fans for decades. They are truly legendary. Roland Martin conducted a fantastic interview with Mr. Beverly.

My favorite Maze song is Southern Girl!! I'm a "southern girl" and it makes me feel beautiful and special! Thank you Maze for making a song especially for me!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Frankie never ages!!! Love all of their music!!! ❤❤❤ I remember coming up as a child, my mother would have that live in New Orleans record on repeat! That's why I love old school music till this day.

Love me some Frankie. This gentleman has a good heart and humble spirit.❤️

I enjoyed that interview with MAZE, especially b/c he's about GOD and LOVE ❣️❣️❣️❣️😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏

Frankie Beverly & Maze!!!! I love you all soooo much! Thank you for the love, the music, the Jesus and the joy within you!!! It would take years for us to tell you what you have given to us! Brings tears to my eyes just thinking of the JOY you’ve given! The world is even better with you here. Your music never gets old.

Frankie Beverly and this wonderful group called Maze...are simply one of the greatest bands around and still going...giving us this great music/sound cannot duplicate...can’t touch’em👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💃🏿💃🏿

I was at the Maze concert in Hammersmith, U.K., in the 80's. Till this day..... nothing can touch it. Michael Jackson's euphoric crowd is what makes his concerts good and I've been at his also. But Frankie Beverley and Maze.....their own abilities with getting the crowd singing and making us part of the performance...OUTSTANDING.

I just love the soul of Frankie Beverly ! and the man that he is !

The Supreme SOUND of SPIRIT

Absolute soul man straight from the heart! Stunning! ❤❤❤

You can take the entire family and never disappointed, no sagging , profanity just real music with dignity , love and pride.❤❤

Love love them, that's the only CD I play to this day. I'm 61 and my 13 year old grands (twins) listen to it and sing along with the songs.

He is class exemplified. I like “Love is the key to Life. I love his style of music-period. White peoples do not know what they are missing and he’s okay with it.

@Roland S. Martin - Brilliant and Loving interview! Kudos & Blessings to Mr. Howard Beverly (Frankie Beverly) & MAZE. Special 'Thank You' to Mr. Martin for taking the time to shine the light within the universe! Blessings... Be Well, Stay Well, ~ B. E. Greene / NYC

Just reading down through many of the comments,gives me the feeling that when the songs sung with so much passion and pain,heart and soul by a person alongside the background singers and musicians blend together as one as this group has done over 50yrs it brings generations together. Thank you so much Maze ft. Frankie Beverly may God continue to shine favor, good health and prosperity on every household represented in the group. ❤️🙏🙏🙏🤎🤎🤎

This man and his band just brings us "happy feelings" when it comes to the songs and music Truly AMAZING

Love is the KEY!!

No selling of the soul that's why they transcend they longevity they music is powerful and special bless by the most high love this band and frankie voice is special

Frankie Beverly and Maze is interwoven into to my life. My childhood. My growing up. It’s feel good R&B music. Once they lock into a groove everybody gets up out of their seat. I truly love this band! No rewards, wow. They’ve been rewarded. With a long, very blessed, illustrious, fruitful career.

my son is 18 and loves Maze, been loving them since he was about 16!!! He started listening to them from me and his dad and just took on to them.

I luv this interview my 1st time seeing it Frankie Beverly & Maze you will always be loved in my heart I’m from New Orleans & we will always love you Brother & you’re music thanks Roland

I love the hoarseness in your voice!!!!

I have listened to Frankie Beverly and Maze since I was a kid. The ironic thing is that only a handful of their songs were made during my actual life. That's called transcendence.

THIS INTERVIEW IS HISTORICAL.I AM AT A LOST FOR WORDS. (NEW ORLEANS)

Been waiting an eternity for this interview. The older I get the more I love the songs of Maze. They are all masterpieces of sound that touch the heart and soul. Their music is for those who enjoy a good time. It's positive, it's soulful, it's romantic, it is a- MAZE-ing!! Thanks Roland for interviewing this most talented good-hearted master of the most soul-stirring lyrics I have ever heard in my life. Frankie, thank you for persevering in your career. You and your band are a blessing to all of us that have heard your music. God bless all of you!🙏🙏🙏

It's time that they get recognized for there incredible music love them there music is unbelievable I can't wait to there time to be honor with award is time

This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. Great chemistry, great questions, s great honest answers and stories. Loved it man. Please do more like this. Also, please Frankie do a tour with Sade before it’s too late. Pleeeeeeeeeeeease. I’d go anywhere and pay anything to see that live. Two of my fave artists together would kill me. I cannot believe they’ve never won an award. Black people just don’t know how to look after each other. This guy is a national treasure. We need to give him all his flowers whilst he is still here to receive them please people.

I'm finally saw this legend in LA Sunday August 7th 2022 and I was in awe the whole group thanks for this coverage. I appreciate Maze and Mr. Beverly award or not they have the love of the people.

The longevity of the career of Frankie Beverly and Maze is proof that they have transcended the need for worldly awards. They are blessed beyond any reward from any part of the music industry. They have Gods blessings and rewards🎉❤

He’s always amazing no matter what he sings never missed a concert when he came to Miami anywhere in Miami I Love Frankie Beverly and maze you really put your whole heart in all your music 💜❤️💛🙏🏽💛🙏🏽💛🙏🏽💛🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️💜🙏🏽💜🙏🏽💜🙏🏽🙌🏾💜🙏🏽🧡 🙏🏽💯💯💯🤎🙌🏾☀️🎤🎵🎼🎶🎧🎸🥁🎹🎺

I will always love them! They’ve given me a Reason to love one more time!😘

Frankie Beverly is one of my favorite singers in my lifetime a lot of people don’t know about this song what goes up must come down check it out I know all of his songs always put you in the move when you’re feeling up and you feel down he will put you where you need to be

He is the #1 spot in our hearts, our minds, and our souls. We envelop Frankie Beverly’s voice in our happiest and most relaxed states of mind, as the essence of MAZE’s music is transparent and conductive, allowing us to open up and align ourselves (mind, body, soul) to purify and cleanse. I believe personally this is why the band found so much success within so many of our communities and homes and social circles. By definition of good music MAZE ft. Frankie Beverly is among the best of the best.
