Max B Sentenced to 75 Years?

Depends who you ask. NorthJersey reports it as true, while French Montana claims otherwise.

A rising Harlem rapper was sentenced Thursday to 75 years in prison for masterminding a deadly robbery at a Fort Lee hotel four years ago. His stepbrother received a life term plus 35 years for his part in the scheme.

Charly Wingate, better known in hip-hop circles as “Max B,” was convicted of felony murder, kidnapping, armed robbery and several other offenses in a June trial in which witnesses testified that he planned the September 2006 robbery at the Holiday Inn on Route 4.

His co-defendant and stepbrother, Kelvin Leerdam, was convicted of the same counts after jurors found that he shot one of the robbery victims, David Taylor.

Both Wingate and Leerdam looked resigned when Superior Court Judge Harry G. Carroll sentenced them in Hackensack. Wingate said he was not happy with his attorney, Gerald Saluti, and fired him during the hearing just before he received his sentence.

And this is where I’m gonna catch a lot of flack (and praise by some) because I like to speak my mind from time to time. He’s found guilty and sentenced to a lifetime behind bars. And now the profits of these “Free Max B” shits are going to his commissary? I don’t understand how hip hop loves the “bad guy” so much. All these “Free _____” shirts are cool if said artist/player catches a bad rap and is wrongfully charged, etc. But these days… if the rapper has a big enough fan base he could straight up say “I killed two kids after I raped their mother in front of them” and there would STILL be those fucking “Free Rapist/Killer Rapper” shirts everywhere! What… the… fuck?

  1. I’m gonna get a free Max B shirt… Sorry, Shake.

  2. i agree with you Shake. not to mention that the dude couldnt rap for shit

  3. Agree with Shake….If these guys can sit there plan and execute a robbery, they can sit in a box for the rest of their lives for taking a life. Think of the dead people’s families dipshits.

  4. EWW SHAKE AN UNCLE TOM ASS NIGGAS PROLLY SNICTHED ON MAX DONT SUPRISE ME HE DONT SUPPORT NIGGAS GOING THROUGH A STRUGGLE HE BLOG ABOUT HIP HOP BUT DONT WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH THE PEOPLE THATS LAME GROW UP MAN GET A PAIR

    ALREADY GOT AN FREE MAX B SHIRT HOLD HIM DOWN NO MATTER THE CHARGES

  5. ^^^ nigger

  6. i agree….i know that we’re tired of seeing black men in jail, but wrong is wrong…we gotta stop supporting the niggas doing wrong and support young brothers doing right.

  7. It’s 2009 Complacent not 1850. Stop being ignorant and grow up.

  8. You go out and do dumb shit, you get a hefty sentence. If you do not want to get jail time. stay away from said dumb shit.

  9. I agree 100%, black people get such a bad wrap because of stupid dudes like this. If your gonna kill someone prepare to do the time. Lets get hip hop to a truthful and real state.

  10. Oh no not the wackest rapper ever. haha.

  11. “SOCAL” SUCK A DICK BITCH DONT TELL ME WHAT TO SAY THIS AINT 1975 WHEN HITLER WAS IN CHARGE ILL GROW UP AND PUT MY FOOT UP YOUR ASS I DONT TREAT SHAKE WORDS LIKE THE GOSPEL LIKE YOU DICKRIDER ITS TO HOTT OUTSIDE GET OFF HIS NUTS

  12. ^^^^ 1975 + Hitler in charge.. hmm.. ’nuff said.

  13. @Complacent
    1975 when hitler was in charge? hitler? really?

    anyways, it’s unbelievable how these ignorant dudes go to prison for some real shit and their dumbshit fans stand behind them no matter how idiotic the crime is. and then the people who preach against it are deemed uncle toms or goody good dudes and shit. its actually laughable.

  14. Thanks tripl-b. haha. & I disagree with Shake on a lot of things on here…thanks for playing though. I’ll talk to you later…Gotta go to work…

  15. “SOCAL” SUCK A DICK BITCH DONT TELL ME WHAT TO SAY THIS AINT 1975 WHEN HITLER WAS IN CHARGE….

    fail FAIL FAIL!!!!!!
    LMFAO!!

    Shake is 1000% right.
    Hip Hop is the only art form that placates ignorance.
    Education will keep us free
    Stupidity will keep us bound
    Complacent is exactly that…
    Happy in his stupidity because knowing anymore than what sounds “cool” will turn his world upside down
    Dumb ass fuck of a retard…
    Max B should have gotten the sentence he got.
    Nigga needs to rot and feel remorse for what he did to his victims and to the faggot ass stans who follow him

    Sometimes it’s like we’re only own worst enemy

  16. so muthafucking DEAD @ Complacent’s DUMB ASS!!! And Shake ain’t even black i don’t think… therefore your ignorant ass Uncle Tom comment doesnt hold any weight.

    1975 when Hitler was in charge. What a fucking idiot. I wish I could meet you… I wonder if you look as dumb as you appear to be in the c-section

  17. Max B and the rest of these fools live in an alternate universe where no one abides by the law and blames it on their poor moneyless childhoods.. when will people, grow up and realize that no ones life is a cake walk and that even people who are “gettin”/have money got issues too.. at the end of the day hip-hop and all these other music genres are for entertainment purposes and since the age of the music video everyone has been trying to turn that entertainment into a reality.. the reality is if u do a crime you get hard time! how is it that everyones dream these days is to be in the industry.. what happened to wanting a real career? We CANT ALL POSSIBLY BE RAPPERS, MODELS, and FASHION DESIGNERS!!! WAKE UP PPL! Now dont get me wrong i am indeed a rap fan, however i know that the shyt they talking on records isnt my reality and the only reason why others say its theirs is because they want to live in a music video..! AS JAY SAID ON THE BLACK ALBUM “ITS ONLY ENTERTAINMENT!”.. PEACE

  18. I rarely leave a comment on here, but for real…Shake, I give you props for saying what’s real. Homey Max B did the crime and he should pay. Anyone who be thinking that he shouldn’t is just ignorant. White/black/latino/asian/etc… if you do something stupid…then pay that time. These “Free Max B” shirts are lame…you stance is that it is OK to kill someone. LAAAAAAME!

    nd now the profits of these “Free Max B” shits are going to his commissary? I don’t understand how hip hop loves the “bad guy” so much. All these “Free _____” shirts are cool if said artist/player catches a bad rap and is wrongfully charged, etc. But these days… if the rapper has a big enough fan base he could straight up say “I killed two kids after I raped their mother in front of them” and there would STILL be those fucking “Free Rapist/Killer Rapper” shirts everywhere! What… the… fuck?

  19. Agreed. Shake, I appreciate the honesty bro. People who buying the shirts act like they know Max B personally.. I mean, family and friends should want him out, but y’all just some fans to a wack rapper…He did a crime…Man up.

  20. the wave a never die* free max b

  21. werd shake and werd to almost everybody else commenting

  22. ya some stupid mafuckas. pretty sure more then half you smart dumb niggas dont even know the case. max b did not kill anybody. his step brother pulled the trigger. if his stepbrother said “yeah max b set the whole thing up” then it would be a different story. but no. that grimy bum bitch had to put his name all up in the shit.

    “But these days… if the rapper has a big enough fan base he could straight up say “I killed two kids after I raped their mother in front of them” and there would STILL be those fucking “Free Rapist/Killer Rapper” shirts everywhere! What… the… fuck?”

    shut your bitchass up. you see anybody do that shit for c-murder when he did that stupid shit? its obvious you cant stand max. jugding by you never posting his music, by you taking time to make that “no wave” banner, by you only posting max b tribulations & never his catalog of hits. haaaaahaahahahahh shits clear as day you a hoe ass nigga. but what can i expect, you be on buddens dick. you americans be on some sucka shit. glad i dont follow your fake bullshit laws. now that max b locked up watch every cornball try to ride his wave, copy his vernacular, steal his aura, etc. the wave will never die. oooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  23. FUCK YOU ALL free max B he got dragged into this by his coked out gf never ever trust a bitch is what we have learned from nas situation to max situation fuck a bitch FREE MAX B
    OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

  24. Shake got a point (well said man)
    The fact the dudes is a rapper hiphop is getting more negative to the media. this has got to stop.
    is someone did something bad he or she gotta face the consequences
    and if people are suporting that damn that trully means there’s some pathetic people walking around.

    my 2 cents

  25. first of all, Complacent’s comment may have gave me the laugh of the year.

    Secondly, I won’t respect/support a rapper who does stupid stuff just to say he did it. If he put as much time into planning and executing a robbery as he should’ve into his hip-hop career he might’ve actually done something with his life….MAYBE. Now, he’ll go down in history (not too distant, we won’t remember him in 3 months) as the stupid wack rapper who robbed and killed someone.

  26. you could tell damn near everyone in this post wears skinny jeans

  27. I’m wondering if they’ll sell ‘no wave’ t-shirts, I’ll def cop that in a minute HAHA matter fact i’ll go get one custom made to support Max B
    (sarcasm)

  28. I fuck with Biggaveli’s music but this nigga deserves 2 go to jail if his ass did it…he killed innocent ppl and got caught..sux..

    and @Psssst i can tell your a homo dude…all u ever do is try and start shit on here. its a comment section of a blog…wtf is wrong with u?

  29. Sorry, criminals deserve to be in jail. Rules are rules. I don’t like following all of Uncle Sam’s laws either but we have a much better life in America compared to other places in the world because these laws are enforced. Can’t go around setting up robberies.

  30. lol at psssst…not quite homie, but nice try tho. steal a niggas “aura”, come on homie, really? “bullshit american laws” whatever mayne. but its blog posting doesnt matter if what u say is true or makes sense.

  31. Big_E
    “and @Psssst i can tell your a homo dude…all u ever do is try and start shit on here. its a comment section of a blog…wtf is wrong with u?”

    aahahahahahaaahhahahahahahahahahahaahahahahhahahahahahaahhahahahhahaahahahahahahahahahhaahahahahahaahahhahaahahahahhaahhhahhahahahahhahahhahhahahahahahaahahahaahaahaahahahhahhahahaahahahaahaaaaaa

  32. i agree with Shake….and i feel sorry for some of the black community. (not these fools killing people) when scum bags like this are on the streets for 4 years after they got someone killed and they have fans putting on shirts saying free_____ it just don’t sit right with me. it makes the killer and the people who support him look so DUMB!!!! i watch First 48 and it kills me that these dumb kids don’t want to snitch on someone after they killed someone! WHAT THE BLOODCLOT!?!? but on some real ish, i don’t even think this dumb idiot deserves a post about his sentence. hope this is the last one for a MURDERER! HIM AND C-MURDER and anyone that comes next on the “murderer” list.

  33. lol @ Psssst
    dude gets funnier every post he makes.

  34. u guys gotta learn to ride the wave ooooowwww. i ride the max b wave and max b cock. hard! for real! you americans are so stoopid. support terrorism! all u tight jean homos. i like baggy jeans so my ass hang out for men to see!
    Oooooowwww I’m so WAVY
    I like that Max B Gravy

  35. ahaaahaahahahahaahahahahahahahah i win

  36. is it true this isn’t the first time he’s been in trouble for robbery?

  37. Nuff said Shake. Fuck a “Free Max B” campiagn.

  38. So Shake, does that go for Mumia also then? He’s the worst example of this kind of stuff. People need to do some research before they slap that bumpersticker on their hooptie.

  39. “ahaaahaahahahahaahahahahahahahah i win”

    ================================================

    what did you win? lol, looks like you keep taking L’s to me. but i do think ppl impersonating other ppl is kind of ghey.

  40. so now our tax dollars have to support this jackass for the rest of his life. just put a bullet in him and throw him in the trash where all his music is.

  41. who really cares?
    he never contributed anything to hip-hop.
    another stupid rapper fucking his life up for no reason…
    lol… the truth hurts.

    OWWWWWW!!!

  42. free big lurch

  43. good get the fuck out of here
    max is a peice of shit

  44. oh btw this pssssst dude’s a fuckin’ peice of shit too
    i’d kill you if i knew who you were
    talking shit about sinny jeans like yu get bitches with your baggy jeans, maybe if you switched to skinny you’d see the world in a more artistic and less gangster way, seeing how many you’re a duerag wearing dirtbag.

  45. stupid piece of shit planning a murder, he deserves all the time gets

  46. “maybe if you switched to skinny you’d see the world in a more artistic and less gangster way, seeing how many you’re a duerag wearing dirtbag.”

    aahahahahaahahahhahaahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaahaahahahahahaahahaahahhaahhaahaahahahahahaahahwhatadoucheahahahahahahahahahahaa

  47. proud to say that with my vast range of music artists and knowledge that i can PROUDLY SAY that i have never taken the time out to listen to whoever the hell this is. PROUDLY DAMMIT.

    with that said, i’d also like to add…. WHO GIVES A FUCK. alert me when someone of relevance in my eyes is in dire straits

  48. shake speaks the truth

  49. Fuck Max B. Now we won’t have to listen to more of his bullshit music, you were stupid enough to plan a robbery and it went wrong.

    Here are a few words of advice from Dave Chappelle:

    “Nighty night, keep your butthole tight”

  50. who cares about this dude seriously?! have a good life in prison.

  51. Damn people are cold these days why would yall wish death on any man!! i aint saying ima go get a free Max B tee but, Damn yall must have forgot he was a human being before he was a rapper. And to the ignorance in most of the comments yall should probably read about this dude before yall base your facts from other peoples facts which came from an oppinion. but i have to admit he does deserve that time

  52. Damn people are cold these days why would yall wish death on any man!! i aint saying ima go get a free Max B tee but, Damn yall must have forgot he was a human being before he was a rapper.

    hmm remember you said ANY MAN, i wouldve wished death on hitler, stalin, napoleon, saddam, osama bin laden, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and alot more. not comparing Max Bitch to these murderers but you did say “ANY MAN” and “HUMAN BEINGS” on wishing death. apparently you saying that he’s no longer a human being because he’s a rapper?

  53. Does Max B deserve jail time for his involvement? Yes. 75 years worth of jail time? Not in my opinion. A lot of sentences (especially for minority defendants) focus on sending a message rather than appropriate justice for the crime being committed, with absolutely no effort put towards rehabilitation. Again, not condoning Max B’s actions, just disappointed with our judicial system for the eleventy millionth time.

  54. Max B s’ fan should show him support if they want to. Max did something wrong and he went to jail. we all have to know he regrets it and he knows it was stupid. FREE MAX B all day. Not because what he did wasn’t wrong, but because im a fan and i would like 2 see him free. Unfortunatly the gov dont care if im a fan so he’ll stay in jail. But a FREE MAX shirt would just be my way of showin love. But that knowledge just comes with a certain upbringing…

  55. ^ Why would you free someone who is guilty?

    Difference between Fan of someone who is Innocent, and someone who is Guilty. You would be willing to have him on the street just because your a fan? That is wow.

  56. “oh i know he robs people and takes lives but I’m a fan so he should be free.” some people are fucking retarded

  57. Pssssst and complacent yall are some niggers yallmake blacks look bad ignorant ass nigga

  58. if he did the crime theres no fucking way around it. you gotta do the time. if he really murked whoever in that robebry 4 years ago he shoulda left the country eventually youll get caught for it. wearing a free max b shirt is a walking contradiction.

  59. Maybe the guy deserved it?

  60. okay im glad to hear that someone of some what fame got what he should have gotten, it sucks for his family but im sorry you did what you did. DONT FREE MAX B. i cant campaign for his release im with you shake.

  61. I don’t know Max B’s case, so I can’t speak on that. But I definitely agree with Shake’s general sentiments about people saying “Free (place rapper here)” either without knowing the facts, or knowing the rapper is guilty and wanting to free them anyway. If you *really* want to support your artist who did wrong, pray that he can use the experience to grow and learn.

  62. The thing is, I’m not sure why this guy is “famous” to begin with. I mean the whole situation is fucked up (the ppl that passed away etc) but otherwise, who cares? You know?

  63. yo I agree Shake. Why is everyone on his dick with the “Free Max B” shit. I don’t care if he involved in the drug game like that. At least he was real talk. Thats his lifestyle and I respect that he wasn’t all talk. BUT, if you get caught doin what you do, then you deserve to get locked up. Cant be sayin Free Max B when he was guilty of what he did lol. Whether you think its cool or you are disgusted, it doesnt change what he did. If thats how the nigga wanna live bis life, thats fine. But dont be doin somethin thinkin your invincible because there are consequences to every action. Therefore I wish him the best but he doesnt deserve to be a free man. Next time you try robbin a dealer, do it at his stashhouse or somethin where you are unlikely to be caught. Not a fuckin public hotel where families could have been

    -KINGQ

  64. FREE MAX B … Owww !

  65. haha… douche lol

  66. haha… douche

  67. if he did the crime, he should pay. the fact that hes a shit rapper is coincidential

  68. Max B Sentenced To 75 Years In Prison, Now thats fucked up, in sweden where i live, no fuckin mather what u do.

    Man i could kill 100persons i would get 25years.

    If you kill someone here you get bout “max” 15years.

    We live in a fucked up world

  69. I wouldn’t wish this on any man but that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t deserve this shit. Can’t say I’m a miss his music though…

  70. All I got to say is don’t drop the soap

  71. @Rio$

    im saying that he is a human and rapper but he was a human first. but you gotta good point on hitler and stuff but im the kinda person say hay if the man suppose to be dead, no offense to any jewish peeps i love yall!!![||]

  72. All these people talkin about oh you dont know what it likes to struggle free max b this that an the third. What if that was ya fuckin brother, or ya uncle, or ya cousin that he ran up in that hotel room and shot dead. come the fuck on and get off that corney ass shit aint nothin gangsta about that. bigavelle gonna get fucked in a cell.

  73. expect me to post in here more than once, im in a tear down ignorance mood

    “EWW SHAKE AN UNCLE TOM ASS NIGGAS PROLLY SNICTHED ON MAX DONT SUPRISE ME HE DONT SUPPORT NIGGAS GOING THROUGH A STRUGGLE HE BLOG ABOUT HIP HOP BUT DONT WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH THE PEOPLE THATS LAME GROW UP MAN GET A PAIR
