WHAT IT IS: This NYC-born pop/soul singer, actor and dancer has been making waves since being signed to Pete Wentz’s DCD2 Records. His current single—a riveting song that features gnash, recently became RIAA-certified gold and boasts 200m+ global streams—is exploding at Top 40 radio with more than 150 Pop stations on board. MAX broke into the music scene, amassing more than 400k SEA for “Gibberish”—his first release on DCD2/Crush, which accrued 50m+ streams worldwide. A lifelong entertainer, music is not his only talent; he starred in the acclaimed Beach Boys biopic, Love & Mercy, as Van Dyke Parks and modeled for a Dolce & Gabbana campaign featuring Madonna. Currently, he’s out promoting the release of his album.
