Or at least my favourite. The amount of careers kickstarted or inspired from the first Mobb deep album ALONE should put him up there in your personal 10. Forreal, HNIC does not get spoken about enough, let alone return of the Mac. He put a lot of people on to wild Illuminati s--- aswell. RIP to your favourite rappers favourite rapper. A master of his craft. A king.

I followed West Coast hip-hop for all of my music listening life. Which has been great! But it's meant that I haven't given enough time to the greats such as this. I think it's about time I dive into into Mob Deep and their solos. Havoc had a good verse on Problem's latest album which was a nice surprise.

H.N.I.C.

Prodigy and Mobb Deep’s impact on New York rap in the 90s, and to a larger extent the entire culture since so much of the 90s was based in NY, cannot be understated. Legends. RIP to a trailblazer.

Can’t believe they recorded their first album when they were like 18 years old. And to see it have the impact it had on the game at that time was really incredible.

I remember copping either the h--- on Earth or The Infamous CD and back in those days, only a few really popular artists released CD’s that had “enhanced features” or some marketing bs like that. Toss that b---- into your computer disc drive and boot it up. If I remember correctly it brought you to a screen that was like a jail cell or something like that. And you could watch a couple mobb deep videos, which were crazy pixelated haha. You could barely make out what was happening. If you were lucky enough to have a computer in those days, it was most likely a piece of s---. The videos would stutter and you’d hear the disc drive spinning like crazy, almost wheezing. You could also view some photos, I think you could see a few upcoming releases from the label, I think it had a screensaver too, and you could get the label’s mailing address. It was really corny for today’s standards but I remember being a kid loving that s--- haha.

Not to hijack but here’s one more not sure which one of these has my question lol

Oh 100%. The infamous is one of the most important albums in raps history. Even when P started to slow down a bit he was still better than most guys out.
Checked the library and they don’t have his memoir so I’m going to order it. Didn’t even know it existed so good looks on that. They do have a novel written by him so maybe I’ll read that while I’m waiting for the memoir to arrive. Could be fine

def top 20. the 21st century stuff, esp with alc, is essential, and mobb deep quietly has one of the two or three best three-album runs ever

That rules man. What an amazing opportunity. I’ll watch this killer mike one right now

Dude I just realized this was like 18 months before he passed. Crazy.

Ummm sooo iirc MIT had this hip hop series they were starting and they invited local writers to do a q&a before the talk so I got to go. Like I remember the first one was killer mike u go u get some one on one ish before they speak before the crowd.
