Right, Max B along with Tru Life, Saigon, Uncle Murder, Papoose were suppose to usher In a new golden era of NYC hip hop right :mjlol:
Max was on a different plateau sonically from all those that you mentioned though , yeah they could rap but they couldn't make music like Max , damn near Max's whole catalog was billboard hits if it was refined and mastered . If you lived in NYC in the late 00s you would know about the impact Max had on us from our lingo to the way we dressed etc and he had good female demographic on deck and once you possess that you're destined to blow

French didn't blow up through a NY fanbase. He blew up through industry moves that he did by himself, and ultimately blew up with a Atlanta/Miami fanbase. That NY fanbase didn't come around till Shot Caller, and Harry Fraud gets cred for producing that hit.

french wasnt known as anything more than that DVD guy in NY until he linked with max :mjlol:.. this was the type of shyt french was making before max




and turned into



my point of saying his buzz led to the other moves is that... without linking with max during the jim jones beef... frenchs position would of always been that DVD guy.. most nikkas i know fukked with frenchs music off the strength of max... IN NY/NJ/CT/Mass etc... i know french politicked into other markets and bigger moves after max got locked up but without that max cosign and the music they were making which led to a big movement across the tri state... we wouldnt been speaking of french montana in 2016 or anytime before that..

Anyone who says Max didn't help French's buzz and wave is lying or don't remember. French wasnt shyt but the nikka who's videos cats would skip on the Cocaine City DVD's before Max came along.

came out 05
imprisoned in 09

he had 4 years to blow and didn't

u sound like a retard
03 50 Cent was the biggest artist on earth
max b wasn't known by any white people and still isn't

it's the same thing with Chinx (rip), he was stagnant for years prior to his death on some maino/murda/vado status

soon as he dies, "he was bout to blow"

NY fans so pathetic :scust:

That's not what fukked up Dipset and u know it. People fukked wit Killa Season. Anyone who knows anything knows the shyt was Jimmy's fault.
Jimmy didn't get snuffed by Tru Life....

Do we really want to compare Jimmys solo's in that timeframe to cams, Jimmy and crew was putting out those classics

Did you check any of my sources? That DVD hustle is how he linked up with Gaby Acevedo.
Gaby Acevedo was president of SRC Records. Akon was signed to SRC.
Gaby introduced French Montana to Akon. This was all before French linked with Max.

So what you're really saying is after he linked with Max, he got with Dame Grease. That part I will concede. Too bad none of those songs were hits. But then you're really just arguing for Dame Grease and not Max B.

That "Ya Heard" is from the same French Revolution tape as:


and


2009's "Penthouse Music" is no different than what he did on 2007's "It Was All Good" and "You Feel Me". In fact, those are better than "Penthouse Music" i'd say.

The style on 2009's "Wake Up In The Morning" is not significantly different than what he did on 2008's "My Heat" ft. Mazaradi Fox:

or 2007's "What I Need":

or 2007's "I Ain't No Lover Boy"


His style progressed but it didn't switch up that much. Just got smoother and he lost a bit of that accent. The style change happened in 2010, when he started doing Trap.

Max certainly made an impact, a huge impact. Just suss seeing guys tryna take credit away from French and say Max is the reason he blew up. When i can show and have shown how French got with Akon, Deb or all the actual things he blew up with. French don't have the talent as Max, but he didn't blow up with talent. He blew up with hard work and industry connections on his own. shyt he been building since '02 when Max was still in prison. People forget Max's career span is 3 years. French's was 6 years, when they linked up. French was less known as an artist by listeners, Max was much more known, but French had the industry connections and that's how he got signed with Akon, signed with Deb, signed with Diddy, signed with Ross. The so-called NY Fanbase had nothing to do with that.

French Montana is pretty young, tall, decent looking, has an easily understandable voice, has a million industry friends, etc
Max is pretty much the opposite

French always had the qualities to blow

saying "Max would be bigger than French now cuz he was in 1992"
or whatever the fucc these retards saying is dumb af

i guess 2 chainz's partner in Playaz Circle should have chainz's career too since they used to be equals

NY nikkas dumb af

In 3 years Max B helped Jim Jones have a visibility in NY he didn't have before. Nikka went from Cam's Hypeman to a star in NY. That's Max B & Stacks ghostwriting and birthing styles for Yimmy. Max did the same for French... What is French without Max? French knows this. fukk CONNECTIONS, its about TALENT my dude. Real shyt

i wont go back and forth on the style change but the whole point is that even linking with Gaby/Akon/Deb... nobody would have gave a damn about those french tracks/tapes. and the reason for that is because french ALREADY HAD a support system/fanbase going on after linking with max b... he became a name after that (especially after max got locked up because right then a lot of the east coast was rooting for him) he was UNKNOWN before that (just the dvd guy nobody cared about)... nobody would have listened and known french without that max cosign period... if you're from the east coast and cant understand that i dont know what to tell you :yeshrug:
