Max B might be incarcerated but he's keeping his presence felt in the streets. Or at least, he has been in the past year or so. He dropped off House Money in 2019 before unleashing Wave Pack in 2020. On top of that, he's dropped off several new singles and feature verses as fans await his next studio album, Negro Spiritual. On Friday, he unveiled two new songs -- "Revolution" and "75 In The Can." The latter pulls West Coast influences on the production, lining up funky bass lines with ghost synths that sound like they're straight out of the late 90s as he reflects on his bid behind bars.

"When I blew trial and got convicted the judge felt the need to sentence the Ol Boy Bigggaveli to 75 years," he said in a statement. "Since then, my sentence has been vacated. This is just another example of how I always persevere, I took that 75 years and made it a wave! As I always do...another hard quality record for the culture!”

Quotable Lyrics
Bring out the cooler
Pour the Dom, Veli the Boss Don numero uno
Sour diesel all in the air, coughing up a lung
Gotta million in jewelry on, walking through the slums
