Former Dipset affiliate Max B is currently serving 75 years in a New Jersey prison after a botched robbery left a man dead in 2006 — and the once “wavy” rapper is feeling the effects of hard time. Not only has Max, also known as Charly Wingate, shaved his signature braids. His family members are now requesting donations for his commissary on Twitter!

A donation MySpace site has been created pleading fans for their support.

“Dear Max B Fans,” a posted message reads. “We have been given a second chance to get Max B a new trial. Judge Carroll, the presiding judge over Max B’s case, has given us 22 days to retain a new legal counsel for a new trial. The 75 years sentence will be set aside. If you want to Seriously Free Max B now is your chance to show your love & support. We are urgently asking all Max B fans to show your support by sending dollars to his Legal Defense Fund. If you are unable to send a donation at this time, we are asking that you kindly forward this message to all of your friends on MySpace. Lets spread the word & really Free Max B. Thanks, Miss Sharon Wingate & Family” Another message reads ‘$1 per fan will get me out of jail.’ (Free Max B 140 MySpace)
