Max B, the Harlem rapper, emerged from prison on November 9, 2023, after serving 18 years. His release was met with enthusiasm on social media, as fans celebrated his return by sharing clips of his emotional reunions with friends and family. Eager to embrace his newfound freedom, Max B headed straight to the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey to enjoy the game between the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns.
Upon arriving at the stadium, Max B took a moment to engage with followers on Instagram through The People Gallery, sharing insights on his style and emotional state. “I feel righteous,” he stated when asked about his feelings on being home. He expressed gratitude, saying, “I’m feeling good, I’m grateful, I’m thankful. God is good.”
His appearance was notable not just for the occasion but also for his fashion choice—Max donned an outfit from Louis Vuitton that showcased his flair for style. He also offered fans some fashion advice: “Listen, man, just be yourself. Get what you can afford… And wear what you wear. If it looks good on you, own it.”
Max B, whose real name is Max Biggaveli, reflected on the significant reduction of his original 75-year sentence related to conspiracy, murder, and assault charges. In 2016, a guilty plea led to the vacating of his convictions, paving the way for his release.
As he enjoys his freedom, he is also looking to mend relationships within the hip-hop community. Previously, he hinted at a desire to resolve past conflicts with fellow rapper Jim Jones, with whom he has had a tumultuous history. “Listen, Jim said a bunch of hard stuff about me,” he remarked in a prison phone call. “It’s all good. Listen, man. It’s love, man. I want to start over. I’m a new man. I’m a married man. I got four kids.”
Max B’s return marks a significant moment not just for him personally, but for the broader hip-hop community. With plans to collaborate with high-profile artists, he is ready to re-establish his presence in the music industry. “Listen, anybody that can keep up with the boss don, anybody that’s an A-lister, anybody that got a sack, look me up,” he declared confidently. “I’ma get you right, I’ma get you wavy.”
As he begins this new chapter, fans and industry peers alike are eager to see how Max B will leverage his experience and creativity moving forward.
