Mobb Deep have made several good albums and Outkast has only made one good album LOL.
    I also think the Mobb are better than Outkast. Prodigy in his prime had the dopest voice in hiphop, and Havoc's dark beats were just the icing on the cake. other than Kast's first album, their style was way too unorthodox for my taste.

    Chungsanity, did you know there was a documentary about The Infamous album? I'm looking at it now on Youtube. Check it out if you haven't seen it.

    yeah it was real dope. Juvenile Hell wasn't bad but The Infamous was like their real debut album. there wasn't a single filler track and even The Infamous prelude with P talking is a classic.

    This dropped 26 years ago. Absolutely perfect album. I was wondering about Q tips involvement beyond the track he produced. i swear I read at some point he was involved or at least provided some more direction on other tracks. Fav Mobb deep album that has stood test of time.

    ^ He produced 3 tracks and mixed a few others. He helped them get signed IIRC.

    I can confirm on the signing, I read about it a good while back. It might have been in P's autobiography.

    Congratulations to Havoc on Shook Ones Part II being officially declared the greatest beat of all time in Hip Hop history, props to Prodigy also because all of the samples on that album came from his Grandmother's record collection.. What Havoc did with that Herbie Hancock sample is pure genius. Imagine if Prodigy did not stop him from deleting it.

    This got me to wondering about Capone-N-Noreaga's Illegal Life sample and somebody found it in October of last year.

    I met Tragedy Khadafi back in 2019 and he told me the story behind that. He was inside of a corner bodega ordering a sandwich and they were playing a Middle Eastern song in there and Khadafi asked the guy in the store what song it was and then went to a record store and found the record and brought it to Havoc to sample, that is why he received coproduction credit on it.
