Max B<\/a> is giving himself plenty of credit for New York<\/a>‘s recent upswing, including the Knicks<\/a>‘ rise during their run to the NBA Finals<\/a>.<\/p>\n In a candid video, the Harlem rapper reflected on the impact he believes he’s had on his city since being released from prison in November 2025 after serving nearly two decades behind bars. According to Max, his return sparked a morale boost across sports, music, and New York City culture.<\/p>\n “I did a plethora of things,” Max said while listing off what he viewed as major changes following his release.<\/p>\n The rapper first pointed to his Nov. 9, 2025 release date, which coincided with French Montana’s birthday. He then joked that one of his earliest accomplishments was helping his longtime favorite NFL team end a losing streak<\/a>.<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere.

Since Max B’s release, New York has continued its resurgence behind Brunson and Towns, with the franchise reaching heights not seen in decades.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Max B Walks Out of Complex Interview After Learning He Wasn\u2019t Included on Best New York Rappers List<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Max B Walks Out of Complex Interview After Learning He Wasn\u2019t Included on Best New York Rappers List<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Max B Says Big Daddy Kane Let Him Down After NSFW \u2018Playgirl\u2019 Photoshoot: \u2018That\u2019s Not Wavy\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n Akon\u2019s Polyamory Rules are Simple: One Man, Many Wives, No Cheating<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Yonkers Makes DMX’s Legacy Official With Street Renaming Vote<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\nRelated News<\/h3>\n
