Max B to Young Thug: ‘We Gon’ Make Some History?’

Max B and Young Thug spoke over the phone recently, the imprisoned rapper revealed this week.

The Boss Don — who is reportedly coming home later this year on Nov. 9 — posted a clip of himself talking to Young Thug over the phone on his Instagram Stories. “Man, I’m in here grinding this sh– out,” he tells Thug before the Atlanta rapper, whose dealt with his fair share of legal issues lately, asks if Max will be released soon. “Hell yeah, we ’bout to hit the home stretch, baby,” he answered before asking Thug: “We gon’ make some history?”

A collab between the two would be fitting, seeing that their styles of rap are similar. Stepping onto the rap scene around 2005, the Harlem rapper often sang his raps, making him a polarizing figure at the time — just like when Thug first started out. Max’s rise was cut short in 2009 when he was sentenced to 75 years for an armed robbery. His sentence was reduced in 2016 and is due to be released later this year after serving 16 years in prison.

Now, at the age of 46, he hopes to resurrect his career. Biggaveli recently called in to The Joe Budden Podcast to not only announce his official prison release date, but to also talk about his plans once he does come home. “Listen, I’m not even gonna put myself in a box, it’s all gonna run concurrent,” he said over the phone. “I can’t wait to get in the studio. There’s a lot of artists out there, too many to name. I’m looking forward to working with the big names, the head honchos… But they gotta be A-list. If the sh– ain’t A-list, I can’t f— with it.”

Thug has also been keeping himself busy since being released from jail in the fall. He’s reportedly working on a collab album with Lil Baby and Future.
