The entertainment business is built solely around one aspect...entertainment. And in about three years and running into the business, that is something that ex-Byrdgang/Diplomat affiliate Max B has seemed to capitalize on: being an entertainer.
With a sound that has yet to be duplicated -- he sounds like a cross between a modern day Lou Rawls and Bizzy Bone -- and with a name like "Biggaveli," Max certainly sets himself apart from his fellow emcees and singers. He is back at it, by himself this time, with a new label home at Amalgam Digital, a rising force in the world of Internet music suppliers; he's put out an incredible catalog of mixtapes, several guest appearances one of which include fellow New Yorker Jadakiss, and has co-signs from Cocaine City's French Montana and G-Unit's general 50 Cent.
We had several interruptions during the interview from what Max calls "People bringing money to my house every 10 minutes," and a direct request from his publicist to not ask any questions about an estranged onetime affiliate. Deterrences and all, Max found a unique way to generate interest outside of his former Byrdgang capo. Instead, he talked to HipHopDX about everything from his opinion on the Harlem Renaissance, to how no one on your corner has swagger like Max, and even his relationship with Cam'ron. Perhaps the potential tallest rising star of 2009, get wavy with Max B.
