Max B Puts Himself Among New York Rap Greats Behind Biggie, Jay Z, And Nas

Rappers are always debating who belongs on the greatest of all time lists, and now Max B is putting his own name beside some of New York’s biggest legends. Conversations about the GOATs of Hip Hop have been part of the culture for years, and during a recent sit down on Million Dollaz Worth of Game with Gillie and Wallo alongside French Montana, Max made it clear where he believes he stands among NYC rap icons. “Look, after Big, Jay, and Nas, you can put me on that mothf*cker right after that,” Max said confidently. “That’s how I feel about it after that. I can prove it.” He continued by saying, “After them, you can’t really... put ’em up.” Wallo stepped in to make sure Max truly believed he deserved to be mentioned beside the heavyweights of Hip Hop. “So, after Big, Jay, Nas, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane...” Wallo started to say before Max cut him off. Gillie then brought LL Cool J into the discussion as well. Max responded, “When it comes to creativity, or just consistent songwriting, I just don’t think anybody got the catalog to match me. Look at my catalog! Look at my tapes! Look at my domains!... Look at the Coke Wave!” French Montana also jumped into the conversation, pointing out that some rappers only stay hot for a short moment before fading out. Wallo pushed back by mentioning that Big Daddy Kane has managed to remain respected for decades. Max quickly dismissed that argument. “Kane? I ain’t seen Kane? When’s the last time you seen Big Daddy Kane? N*gga, I just did 18 years, I ain’t seen Kane, he wasn’t even on the kiosk! Big Daddy Kane?!” Do you think Max B’s legacy really puts him above some of the other legendary New York emcees? Watch the clip below and decide for yourself.
