As if that's a secret. Max was before he got locked up. He been had help.
You know what I meant lmao.
Jim Jones leeched off him and did him filthy

Max B’s story is depressing.
He was a star with a refreshing authentic but modern NY sound, while everybody was emulating the South.

NY really lost a valuable artist SMH

Point remains, Jimmy getting "help" is ancient history. Whenever you see a rapper with a crew, but nobody releases anything, there's writing going on. Nobody keeps non-Day ones around wasting money otherwise. Look at G-Unit. Then look at Black Wall Street.

Jim came in the game with Cam writing his rhymes. He's always managed to make good music regardless of who is helping him write. I'm a backpacker at heart so I liked when Jim was rocking the slightly offbeat flow. His delivery had a real earnest quality to it









Rain and Jim are a good pairing. Rain's music is good but it lacks that extra something to get over the hump. Rain did this beat I always felt like it was meant for a URL promo. Beasley probably has some unreleased battle promo vocals over this beat

:whew:

“I’m not be the sickest y’all, but my G’s up, B’s up, dips are the sickest yall”

Although Jim is better now, his current music still doesn’t touch this shyt.

They reopened my case
Cuz they found me in the whip, dog
smokin on 8th
Ya know the trunk had coke and a 8th
Last time, man
they broke in my place
Found the stash
and they broke in the safe
Found guns, dope, smoke in the safe
Now I’m back in the system,
more coke on my case
In front of the judge, I’m hoping for grace
But my lawyer so cocky,
hood down we cracking jokes in the face


- Jim Jones (Losin’ Weight freestyle)

Jim’s delivery is so fire :whew::wow:
His ear for music is underrated
