Mobb Deep Essentials

Mobb Deep Essentials

Mobb Deep are Prodigy and Havoc, a Queens-bred hip-hop group who were personified hardcore hip-hop in the '90s. The pair's sophomore album The Infamous featured the excellent “Shook Ones Pt. II,” among other classics, and is considered one of the greatest rap albums of all time. Their 1996 album Hell on Earth marked their second consecutive gold album and featured another classic single in “Front Lines (Hell on Earth).” They scored their first platinum plaque with 1999's Murda Muzik. Their Infamy album is certified gold.  Prodigy released the gold-selling H.N.I.C. in 2000. Mobb were involved in two high profile beefs. Their “Drop a Gem on Em” targeted 2Pac during the East Vs. West coast feud and Prodigy went toe to toe with JAY Z. Mobb signed to 50 Cent's G-Unit and issued their seventh album Blood Money in 2006.
