History
Max was born into a very musical family. His father, Fredro Perry, a drummer, songwriter, producer, and independent label owner, has gained success and has toured worldwide with his band, The Brooklyn Cowboys. His uncle, Richard Perry, is one of the most successful record producers of all time, and was twice named Billboard Record Producer of the Year, producing artists like Ringo Starr, Rod Stewart, Harry Nilsson, Carly Simon, The Pointer Sisters, Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Tina Turner, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, Patti La Belle, and The Temptations to name a few. And his brother/partner, Gennessee, who has done countless co-writes with Max, has worked with artists such as Mac Dre, One Block Radius, Too Short, Hell Rell, Paul Wall, AZ, and Chino Xl.
Carving out his own spot in music, Max has worked with many artists from his hometown of New York such as Jim Jones, Prodigy, AZ, Sheek Louch, Tru-Life, Hell Rell, Max B, 40 Cal, and Paul Cain.The West Coast has also figured prominently in Max's career. Traveling to California frequently since he was a teenager to work with his brother/partner Gennessee eventually led to working with artists like Mistah F.A.B, San Quinn, Killa Tay, B-Legit, Matt Blaque, Goldie Gold, Berner, Haji Springer, Cousin Fik, and Global.
In 2009, Max had the honor of producing 3 tracks for the American Gangster: Mac Dre and the Romper Room Gang episode, which aired on BET in January 2009. Future plans include new projects with Brisco, Nipsey Hussle, Baby Bash, Gorilla Zoe, B-Legit, Jody Breeze, and Matt Blaque.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“No matter how vital experience might be while you lived it, no sooner was it ended and dead than it became as lifeless as the piles of dry dust in a school history book.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1874–1945)
“The history of this country was made largely by people who wanted to be left alone. Those who could not thrive when left to themselves never felt at ease in America.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“You that would judge me do not judge alone
This book or that, come to this hallowed place
Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
And say my glory was I had such friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
