He is known for his frequent collaborations with Max B, and more recently with Chinx Drugz and the rest of his group, the Coke Boys. His stage name is a conflation of French (from the French protectorate of Morocco) and Montana (from the fictitious Tony Montana in the 1983 movie Scarface). In December 2011, Montana signed a record deal with P. Diddy‘s Bad Boy Records and Interscope Records.
