I’m Free!!!
Released from Prison After 16 Years
Published
Harlem rapper Max B is officially a free man, walking out of prison after more than a decade behind bars.
The “Wavy Crockett” rapper was originally sentenced to 75 years in 2009 for his alleged role in a botched New Jersey robbery that turned deadly. But Max’s conviction was later overturned, and in 2016, he struck a plea deal for aggravated manslaughter, drastically reducing his time.

Max teased his release earlier this year, calling into The Joe Budden Podcast to say, “We got a date! I’ve got November 9, 2025, baby!”
His longtime friend and collaborator French Montana confirmed the news on Instagram Sunday, posting a celebratory message, “CANT MAKE THIS UP! MY BROTHER REALLY CAME HOME ON MY B DAY! HAMDULILLAH š¤²š¼ WALKED IT DOWN! NO MORE FREE YOU š š š”

Max B’s “wave” sound influenced everyone from ASAP Mob to Wiz Khalifa, and his name’s been shouted out in tracks by Kanye West, Drake, and The Weeknd.
