*Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder)* is one of Maxwell’s most iconic songs, released in 1996 as a single from his debut album, *Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite*. The track perfectly embodies the smooth, sophisticated sound of neo-soul, blending jazz-influenced instrumentation with warm R&B grooves. Maxwell’s signature falsetto glides effortlessly over the lush production, creating an ethereal and uplifting listening experience.
