Max A Part of 9/11 Special

Proud New York native MAX released “Still New York,” an ode to his hometown, earlier this year. The Joey Bada$$ assisted track is a love song to the city, highlighting how much its bright lights and concrete roads have molded their lives.

An energetic MAX recently brought the track to ESPN’s 9/11 special, remembering the city’s tragedy with verses from Joey Bada$$, harmonies from the NYC Gay Mens Chorus, and piano from collaborator and longtime best friend Ryan Siegel.

The moving video cuts between clips of a passionate performance and iconic NYC scenes, from the Brooklyn Bridge to the subway.

MAX released “Still New York” in June and said he plans to donate all proceeds from the song to New York charities.
