00:00Max B announces first post-prison release headlining concert coming to Brooklyn.
00:05After more than 15 long years behind bars, Harlem's own Max B is finally home,
00:09and the city is celebrating. Released last weekend, the 46-year-old quickly stepped back
00:15into the spotlight. Max B helped birth the wave sound, influencing French Montana and Drake.
00:21Mixtapes like Coke Wave and Public Domain made him a cult icon who coined Wavy.
00:26In 2009, he was convicted in a botched robbery that resulted in a man's death
00:31and sentenced to 75 years. French Montana kept his name alive as Max B released waves and house money.
00:38In 2019, his sentence was significantly reduced. Since his release, Max B reunited with French
00:44Montana and friends, commemorating freedom with a fresh set of jewelry. He appeared at a New York
00:49Jets game as fans called it, the comeback of the year. Max B announced a homecoming concert for
00:55January 18, 2026 at the newly renovated Brooklyn Paramount in downtown Brooklyn, as fans speculate
01:02surprise appearances from French Montana, Jim Jones, and others, with tickets expected soon.
01:08Throughout Max B's incarceration, French Montana remained his supporter, crediting him for shaping
01:14sound and calling him the heart of Harlem. Now free, they reunited and hit the studio, hinting at
01:20new Coke Wave material. Max B eyes a book, clothing line, and film projects, while his team explores a
01:26documentary, as he reintroduces himself as an artist and entrepreneur, with streaming carrying his
01:32soulful, melodic, and effortlessly cool sound to new listeners. Max B's journey represents perseverance
01:38and faith, moving from a 75-year sentence to freedom while maintaining relevance and inspiring
01:43rappers. As one fan commented online, Max B never fell off, he was just waiting to come home.
01:51With freedom restored and creativity renewed, the Brooklyn Paramount show will be more than a
01:56concert, a celebration of survival and influence, and for Harlem and hip-hop, the wave is officially back.
