Maxwell was arrested back in October 2021 on federal drug charges which claimed that he was allegedly participating in a drug trafficking ring reaching across the United States. Maxwell and others were accused of allegedly obtaining more than 100 kilograms of various drugs including cocaine, heroin, fentanyl and crack cocaine. They were also purported to have transported the drugs from the west coast of the U.S. for distribution in New York and New Jersey. Maxwell remains in custody with no sentencing date set as of publishing time.

Maxwell’s latest mixtape The Butterfly Effect was released last year on October 22. Prior to that, he released the record You Know The Vibes on December 11, 2020. His debut hit single “Trap Queen” was released ahead of his debut self-titled album which arrived in September 2015.
