In 2009, New York rapper Max B was sentenced to 75 years in jail on conspiracy charges. That’s a hefty sentence, so why, as of 2024, are people celebrating that Max B will soon be a free man? What is Max B’s release date, anyway?
Recommended VideosBorn Max Biggaveli in Harlem, Max B’s conviction stemmed from a 2006 incident in which the rapper conspired to rob two men, one of whom wound up dead. At that point, Max B had appeared on several popular mixtapes and made his name with tracks like”Where Do I Go (BBQ Music)” and “I Never Wanna Go Back.” He also collaborated with artists like Pete Rock and Jim Jones.
From the start, Max B seemed unlikely to serve his whole sentence. In 2016, his 75-year sentence was reduced to 20 years, and three years later, his time behind bars was shortened again to just 12. Then, in late 2023, another Max B collaborator, French Montana, shared on X that Max B would soon be freed, much sooner than most anticipated.
Max B will be released in April, 2024
