The Queens duo of Havoc and | | Prodigy (AKA Mobb Deep) are one of the biggest groups in Rap music, | | selling over four million albums worldwide. With classic albums like The | | Infamous, Hell On Earth, Murda Muzik, and Infamy, Mobb Deep have become | | household names in the Hip Hop community. Not only a respected MC, Havoc | | has also created the sonic backdrops for the likes of The Game, G-Unit, | | Jadakiss, and others. | | | | As golden age rap suddenly gave way to West Coast gangsta in the early | | '90s, an East Coast variety of hardcore rap arose in turn, with Mobb | | Deep initially standing tall as one of New York's hardcore figureheads | | on the basis of their epochal album The Infamous. Released in April | | 1995, The Infamous was released almost exactly a year after Illmatic and | | about a half year after Ready to Die ù the debut masterpieces of Nas and | | the Notorious B.I.G., respectively, both albums likewise of momentous | | significance for East Coast hardcore rap. On The Infamous, Mobb Deep | | (comprised of Prodigy and Havoc) set the tone for future generations of | | hardcore New York rappers, from G-Unit to Dipset. Subsequent releases | | from the duo were likewise influential, especially Hell on Earth (1996). | | However, by the late '90s, Mobb Deep was no longer setting trends; in | | fact, they seemed to be following them, and they lost some of their | | stature as subsequent generations of hardcore rappers arose. For a few | | years, Mobb Deep struggled to reclaim their commercial standing, until | | they eventually drifted into the G-Unit camp, where they signed a | | lucrative deal to join 50 Cent and company. Blood Money (2006), Mobb | | Deep's first release under the G-Unit banner, rekindled interest in the | | veteran duo, who enjoyed a substantial uptick in sales and airplay. | | | | Prodigy (Albert Johnson, born November 2, 1974) and Havoc (Kejuan | | Muchita, born May 21, 1974) grew up in Queens, specifically the | | Queensbridge area, yet met in Manhattan, where both were students at | | Graphic Arts High School. Their shared love of hip-hop resulted in a | | natural companionship, and while they were still teens, the two young | | men had themselves a record deal with 4th & Broadway, a major rap label | | affiliated with Island Records. In 1993, the label released Juvenile | | Hell, a confrontational album featuring noteworthy production work by DJ | | Premier and Large Professor, who both within a year's time would move on | | to produce the debut of another young Queensbridge rapper, Nas. Not much | | came of Juvenile Hell, however, and it would be two more years before | | Mobb Deep would return. | | | | When they did return in 1995, it was on a different label, Loud Records, | | and with a significantly developed approach. The Infamous featured a | | mammoth street anthem, "Shook Ones, Pt. 2," but it was a solid album all | | around, featuring also the in-house production work of Havoc and a | | couple high-profile features (Nas, Raekwon). The Infamous was more | | hardcore than its two key stylistic predecessors, Illmatic and Ready to | | Die; the beats were darker and harder-hitting while the rhymes were | | downright threatening yet still inventive and crafty. Moreover, there | | were no crossover hits like "Big Poppa" or "Juicy." In fact, there were | | no light moments at all. The Infamous was an uncompromising album for | | the streets, and it was championed as such. | | | | A year later, in 1996, Mobb Deep returned with a follow-up, Hell on | | Earth, which was a little slicker than The Infamous yet still emphasized | | hardcore motifs. It spawned a couple hit singles that were given | | appropriately theatrical videos. At this point, hardcore rap was at its | | peak, with Death Row Records flourishing on the West Coast and a legion | | of New Yorkers jumping into the scene, following the lead of Nas, the | | Notorious B.I.G., and Mobb Deep. So when it took over two years for Mobb | | Deep to return with a new album, Murda Muzik, not released until April | | 1999, the rap landscape had changed significantly. Mobb Deep now had | | significant competition, and since Murda Muzik offered few innovations | | and lacked the spark of the duo's past two albums, it was met with some | | disappointment. By and large, fans enjoyed it, yet the album didn't | | appeal beyond the already established fan base, as the album only | | offered one major hit, "Quiet Storm." The following year, Prodigy | | released a solo album, H.N.I.C. (2000). It got a lukewarm reception, | | appealing to the duo's fan base yet spawning no hits. | | | | When Mobb Deep resurfaced, in December 2001 with Infamy, they showcased | | a new willingness to reach beyond their fan base. "Hey Luv" was issued | | as a single, and it was the first Mobb Deep song to flirt with R&B | | crossover, or even to mention love, for that matter. The song got some | | airplay, thanks in part to its hook, which is sung by the R&B act 112, | | and its video, which played up the song's air of seduction. Nonetheless, | | Infamy proved to be a relative disappointment commercially, and it | | seemed like Mobb Deep was beginning to see their popularity erode with | | each passing year. It didn't help, either, that around this time the duo | | ù and Prodigy, in particular ù had been attacked by Jay-Z on "Takeover." | | And too, that Loud Records would go out of business, leaving Mobb Deep | | without a label deal. For the next few years, from roughly 2002-2005, | | Prodigy and Havoc tried to regain their footing. There were one-off | | albums released via various label arrangements ù Free Agents: The Murda | | Mix Tape (Landspeed, 2003), Amerikaz Nightmare (Jive, 2004), and The Mix | | Tape Before 9/11 (X-Ray, 2004) ù that made minimal impact. By this | | point, not even the fan base was all that interested; it had been eroded | | with each passing year, leaving few faithful. | | | | Then came a surprise announcement that 50 Cent had signed Mobb Deep to | | his G-Unit family and that an album would be forthcoming. First came a | | quick remix featuring the latest G-Unit signing, "Outta Control," which | | supplanted the original version when 50's The Massacre was reissued in | | 2005 as a CD/DVD. Too, Mobb Deep had become omnipresent on the New York | | mixtape scene, releasing all kinds of streets-only material in attempt | | to re-establish themselves. It evidently worked, as Blood Money debuted | | in the Top Ten of Billboard's album chart and brought more exposure to | | Mobb Deep than the duo had enjoyed since their late-'90s heyday. Not | | everyone was convinced by the group's makeover, however, as the G-Unit | | approach was substantially more polished than the Mobb Deep of The | | Infamous. Still, Mobb Deep found a new generation of younger listeners ù | | the large G-Unit market base, in particular ù who were mostly unfamiliar | | with them. It had been over a decade since The Infamous, after all, and | | Mobb Deep had been out of the spotlight for years. Then, in early 2008, | | Prodigy went away to prison to serve a three-year sentence, putting Mobb | | Deep's future in question. | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Please help your fellow pirates by seeding after download!
