Incacerated rapper Max B releases a fresh single titled “Black and I’m Proud.” The track’s title is a nod to James Brown’s classic song, following in the footsteps of his previous releases: “Hold On” which pays homage to Sade and “Don’t Push Me” which pays tribute to Grandmaster Flash and Ice Cube.
Max B has told Rolling Stone that his next album will be titled Negro Spirituals. “It’s about me really evolving as a person, evolving as an artist,” he said. “My music five or six years ago — even before when I used to make music — it was good, but it lacked the experience I have today. The concept fell into my lap: I’m gonna transform from the old music act into a powerful new artist with a display of content that they aren’t used to. I’m trying to give the people some substance.”
