Max B The Thread

man its sooo funny how these guys sing their own hooks, reminds me of like hillbilly music or drunk ppl or dogs howling in the night -- & like when he harmonizes w/ his own adlibs singing falsetto soo lol. really charming though. wavy is my current favourite bitches all love us biggavella macaroni with the cheesy... easy

my concurrent musical discovery/obsession is this australian punk band uv race who, idk, as little as they have in common in any way, get by on a lot of the same charms; blurring the lines b/w intentional sloppiness & musical defiency backed up w/ lots of personality & actual talent

lol & also cool that zvookster wrote his wikipedia page

haha oops

deej is actually in the comments there but since a gucci track was up first i guess there was no way he was gonna make it to the end.

pete rock did a song w/ max b & it bangs.

heres what it said when pete rock talked about it in vibe:
NY's Finest--Pete Rock (2008)
“I got introduced to Jim Jones through someone who was working with him. I called him up and said, ‘Hey, I’m going to come through your session with some beats.’ We did a song called ‘G’s Up,’ which was on Jim Jones’ first solo album. Then from that came the song ‘We Roll’ from New York’s Finest. This was before Max B got locked up. Jim told me that Max actually convinced him to jump on that song because he didn’t understand how to come in on the beat. Max was kind of helping him out [laughs]. But it came out excellent.

lately this has been my fav max b

wait you never heard Max B before 2009? like 2-3 years after "Baby Girl" and "You Gotta Love It"? weird.

id heard OF him of course, and i heard him on some other shit since, he was on that jay diss track or w/e, but it was the first solo song of his i heard yeah.

or at least, that i heard & registered as 'worth hearing'

this is kind of irrelevant but i actually first heard it cuz dudes at dirtyglovesbastard had highlighted it, which is where noz first heard it too i believe

yeah "You Gotta Love It" was the Jay diss. but like "Baby Girl" was the Jim Jones semi-hit he was actually on, i thought that's what we were talking about upthread!

ive heard it since then!

i basically was ignoring a lot of that stuff in favor of kinda gritty back to basics ny rap records back then -- styles & prodigy & nyg'z and blaq poet etc

at least when it came to ny

heres the full story of his arrest & everything

def interesting even if you arent feeling the music

yeah i remember reading that when it first ran. pretty weird story.

max might be the kind of artist who doesnt transcend american ilxors

seeing as i was the only person who responded with any enthusiasm to your confession that u were feeling the rnt comp, imma say no on that

nothing 2 do w/ gucci. cmon, thats pretty weak concern trolling

― *kl0p* (deej), Tuesday, February 1, 2011

oh yeah it was noz's other max b post where u had hurt feelings re gucci, sorry for reducing u to a stereotype.

as a grown man who was once repeatedly reduced to furiously typing "shut the fuck up, you're irish" in an internet rap argument, u shld learn to 1) take a joke once in a while 2) think "i actually got off kinda lightly there, thank goodness i only get clowned every now and then and am not a total joke figure on here"

was that on ilx

dude i 'took a joke' about gucci plenty of times on here -- i havent even talked about dude in earnest for months, how is it not at zinging al for ebony eyez levels? & the fact that there is a cbraps post where i was discussing gucci = why would u have to make shit up anyway? shitty posting is shitty posting

& saying ppl outside the states might not be into it wasnt some kind of diss \Oo/ i just see how like yelawolf or the alabama dudes would appeal more, max might appeal less -- r/t/c (uk btw) has observed this on the board himself w/r/t gucci

is that deleted link "first day out"?? if so, deej was completely otm

shitty posting is shitty posting

making a mild joke at deej's expense is shitty posting, everyone walk on eggshells around hypersensitive deej

jokes are funny

smh

bleh whatever maybe i misread ur tone

less bullshit more max b

downloaded 'coke wave' and haven't really stopped listening to it. max b's voice is just fucking cool isn't it? 'do for drugs' is hilarious + dope

i guess my pt about non-americans was totally off lol

coke wave sounds better & better to me over time

zvookster is a grown ass man? idk why but i've always imagined you a young dude, maybe it was profuse use of abbrevs that threw me off? i guess it does explain your eloquence & maturity & knowledge of "old rap"

deej what would you recommend as the logical "next step" after coke wave

that was abt deej, floppers

o!

my mum uses mad abbrevs in her txt messages yo #justsayin

go to bed u

lol

zvookster this is a kip thread

deej are u having some sort of breakdown or something

??? im just trying to get us back on topic bro

i like max b

potmXII circa 2007 is feeling a bit vindicated here

one of my roommates for hte past 5 ish months is probably the biggest biggavelli fan below harlem. he is like a max b archivist/historian. he doesn't like French Montana only because he is a total Max B purist

get him to make us a mixtape

he lvoes videos of him, like non-music videos. just footage of max b. i hear that awful drunk laugh coming from the living at all hours.

"cchchchhchchchhhhhhhh!!"

this guy is a serious fucking drunk

if they ever release season 1 and 2 of Biggavelli TV (which they actually used to post on wshh) on dvd he will write the liner notes

in 2013 can we start a Sen City thread? cuz he's very underrated. byrd gang

get him to make us a mixtape

if he did it would probably be this stuff, anything from this era that uses the magic combination of misogyny + booze is his favorite genre of wave. the MOB /stack bundles era. before he broke off with jim. before he started putting his flunkies french montana and mack mustard on everything

omg this one

SORRY /posting

hey deej thanks for turning me on to this one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuVVPuJkxS8

i thought the new single ('money make me feel better') was only a solid B+ at first but the more I listen the more I like it. strong grower imo

his last verse on "why you do that" = best of his career t/f

i hope i got a clear view

:-D

sorry, I don’t know if max b is out of jail yet, I guess this is kind of like reviving an old person thread and everyone expecting them to be dead.

new single popped up on Spotify - extremely slight, poorly recorded, yet the max b magic is intact, great hook and flow

i like it, nice to hear him
