In this episode of They Reminisce Over You, we're having a conversation about Love Jones, Theodore Witcher's iconic 1997 Black rom-com that became a cultural classic. We'll be diving into the film's most memorable moments, standout supporting characters and dig into whether Nina and Darius were ever really Mr./Mrs. Right or Mr./Mrs. Right Now.

We also get into our favorite scenes, our favorite songs from the soundtrack, discuss how our feelings on the movie have/haven't changed over the years, and answer the biggest question that we had: would Nina and Darius still be together today?

In this episode, we’re getting into Maxwell’s full discography, spotlighting Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite on it’s 30th anniversary (April 2, 1996,) while also discussing his MTV Unplugged, Embrya, Now, BLACKsummers’night & blackSUMMERS’night albums.

We walk through his full run, from hits like “Sumthin’ Sumthin’,” “Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder),” “Matrimony: Maybe You,” and “Pretty Wings” to deeper album cuts, sharing our favorites along the way.

Miguel also finds a way to link Embrya and OutKast’s ATLiens.

Plus, we’re dropping TWO playlists (one curated by Christina and the other curated by Miguel) for this episode. Even though there is some overlap, his discography spans so many styles that we love different sides of his catalog.
