Hip-hop artists French Montana and Max B have released a collaborative album titled “Wave Gods 2: Cosmos Brothers” and announced a joint tour.
The project marks a significant professional reunion for the pair, following the release of Max B from prison in November 2025 [2]. Their partnership has long been a staple of the genre, and this latest effort seeks to capitalize on the momentum of their shared musical history.
The album arrived on April 24, 2026 [1], making it available to listeners worldwide. This release follows a period of anticipation as the two artists reunited to continue their creative partnership after Max B's legal challenges ended.
In addition to the new music, the duo has launched a national tour to support the project. The tour dates began on Jan. 17, 2026 [3], with the first reported stop taking place at the Brooklyn Paramount in New York City [3].
The timing of the tour and album rollout suggests a strategic effort to reintegrate Max B into the mainstream music scene. By pairing the release with live performances, the artists are leveraging their existing fan base to establish a new era of collaboration.
The "Wave Gods" brand has historically represented a specific sound and cultural influence within the hip-hop community. This second installment, "Cosmos Brothers," aims to evolve that sound while maintaining the chemistry that defined their earlier work together.
“The project marks a reunion after Max B’s release from prison in November 2025.”
The reunion of French Montana and Max B represents more than a standard album release; it is a calculated reentry for Max B into the music industry after a lengthy absence. By launching a tour months before the album's April release, the duo prioritized live engagement and visibility to rebuild Max B's public profile and commercial viability.
