This came out back when you had to sit next to your radio with your trigger finger on record because everybody was waiting for this to play on the radio again the next night. The first time they played it it was no announcement, it just came on, it was like 11-12 at night Hot 97. The streets went crazy because everybody was like "wtf is this"? Then Prodigy said the first line and everybody went crazy because everyone already heard Mobb Deep first album by then so hearing Prodigy on this dope new beat meant the next Mobb Deep album was coming..... What a time to be alive! 💯
@@40EastTrill Well Juvenile Hell but back then everyone knew "the Infamous" and then "Hell On Earth". Juvenile hell they was just that.... Kids. Technically Hell On Earth is the 3rd though like you said.
Havoc one of the most underrated producers ever in hiphop history this is why 90s hiphop is forever better than any thing out today that 90s era was amazing no naked girls no expensive things just dope lyrics sick beat and talent 💯
Come on now, geto boys, 2 live crew, fuggin TUPAC I could go on and on… JAZZY BELLE son! Errybody featured big booty bitches in their videos in the 90s. Mobb Deep was an outlier in that they were too cold to have the freak show out front and center. That’s why I loved him. They went against and were true artists. “Keeping these rap fans like crack fiends Until we reup And put more Infamous upon the rap scene” Love it
joshua hauser yes. we have it but thing is that this kinda hip hop isn't that popular as it was. people like listening to tunnel vision, desiigner and other mumble rappers not the ones who speak truth but ones who speak only bout their money
Almost 2024, and this joint still hits hard. It's on my gym playlist, and when I pump it, it makes me run longer, train harder, and feel stronger. This duo was and will always go down as one of the greatest to do it. They captured the essence of the New York City streets.
no wurrys dude,,soon we will be all in the realy hell! the end of the world is comming.. Jesus Crist don´t give a fuck anymore.. than u can ask him a autograf whille u burn
@@RollerBladingSuxs The only person who should cry there is you. I don't know how person can have so bad taste in music. Tell me that autotune lil uzi it's real hip hop. Go put diamond in your forehead dumbell

RIP prodigy from Greece.... Big love to the old raps back when the songs where real and not bullshit.. Till this day that I'm 19 I still got big love for that track and for others like survival of the fittest etc.
Havoc Never Gets His Props … a Seriously Humble Loyal & Devoted Friend… A Real One….They don’t make em like Hav no more … A Duel Threat … Ferocious with The Pen 🖊️ & The Beats 🥁 ….My Go to Dun during Debates !!!✊🏾🙏🏾💪🏽💯
Mobb Deep is one of my favorite boom bap artists. Their beats and the way they spit inspired me from the early stages of my musical journey to pursue a path of my own in hip hop. Thank you for your influence! 🔥
In '96 I was 14 years old, and Mobb Deep was my favorite rap group; even over the fkn WU! I would call into our local University radio station- The University of Scranton's WUSR Radio on Sat. nights, and ask DJ Rock-On to spin Mobb Deep like clockwork- every Saturday night. Sittin' there with the casette in the boombox, with scotch tape over the notches- tryinna hit that *REC* button with the quickness to catch the whole song. Now, I am 40, and STILL bumpin' Mobb Deep. Powerful and ill rhymes over super dope tracks. Blood floods ya eye, fk ya optics!
R.I.P Prodigy. One of my favorite rappers, not only saying that after his death also before. Thanks for all the memories listening to your music. Real legend
Man this beat is Soo dark but at the same time calm and collected. Much like the streets, it's the quite ones that are the you don't wanna mess with. This beat exemplifies that notion. One of my favorite tracks ever.
its not just the beat and flow that i like about the 90's hip hop scene, i think its more of how they portrayed it then they do now, i mean there's still plenty of great hip hop tracks now, i think its just how they portrayed it, i mean old school hip hop music videos and there flow and accent looked and sounded more aggressive and very violent which is what people probably miss the most because a lot of rappers these days, have sort of high pitched voice a little when they rap and even the gangsta rappers now, do the swaggish things, i mean i dont see none of this thuggish shit, besides in Drill Trap music
this track thou....it was so ahead ofits time...i mean...............this makes me goosbombs now....im 41......i know that shit all my life.........its different now you no......its way more deep when you grown....
I got a chance to see a Mobb Deep show in 2015 at the Observatory in OC,Cali and I literally remember saying Im glad I finally saw the Mobb because you never know these days and 2 years later Prodigy was gone. Peace to the Mobb and big up to Prodigy who at his peak was a top 5 lyricist
96 might be the single illest year in Hip Hop. This, Reasonable Doubt, The Score, Muddy Waters, ATLiens, All Eyez on Me, Ridin' Dirty, It Was Written, Illadelph Halflife, Stakes Is High, Ironman, Hard Core, Firing Squad, Nocturnal, The Coming, Da Storm, Wild Cowboys, and I'm leaving some out 😂. Absolutely insane. What a era.
I hardly ever can listen to more than 30 sec. My heart melts and tears won't stop to come out. Last time I listened the whole song was some years ago I must admit. RIP legend

Respect to everyone who still listening to this timeless masterpiece in 2020
This is the anthem for what's going on outside
Still
Thank you my man
Genuine, relevant, 2020!
Facts. The song, just like the album is an instant classic in hip hop.
Mobb Deep always had the best beats.
hell yea bloodsport and animal instinct are my fav
yeah its underground rap
So true bro he always had d best beats👍🏽👍🏾
Most of their songs 95% were produced by havoc
And Onyx
I wish Prodigy's second verse was in this. One of the greatest verses ever rapped in history. RIP P Mobb 4Eva
Yea literally his best verse imo, and its not included :(
No question. He blacked out on his second verse. Flawless.
This BEAT is out of this world!
Wu Tang CLAN came back for it after lessening to locksmith 🔥🔥🔥

R.I.P Prodigy 🙏🏾
Yeah T
Censoring this is an insult
you're damn right
best comment
Radio version
They broke the flow
his flow gets absolutely fucked in this video
Havoc top 5 producer no doubt
Supreme One cc
no fuckin' doubt
Supreme One did he make that instrumental?
Supreme One absolutely no doubt
Indeed, been saying that for years
Havoc is the most underrated producer for real.
True talk
where i grew up he is far from underrated.
Havoc’s production and P’s vocals hit a pinnacle with this album. I bought it on vinyl aged 26, still bumping it aged 49
The fact that Havoc is only 47 and they had already been out for a while at this point goes to show how young these guys were damn
Still playing it at 47. Forever Mobb Deep
Mobb Depp lyrics always give you the cold hard truth!
They were always described as being at the forefront of the East Coast "nihilistic" grimey street rap scene..
2020...
2024 Still banging 💪 💴💴💪💪💯💯💯
Prodigy - Rest in Peace.
From Germany - We love you.

1996.
46 and I don't even listen to this generation rap. Strictly 80's and 90"s
2024 and Mobb Deep was telling us what was happening now . Pay attention to what’s going on as we speak 🙏🏾….
Listening to mobb deep till the day that I die. RIP Prodigy
I want the last song I'll listen to be a Mobb Deep joint.

“Keeping these rap fans like crack fiends

Love it
Prodigy was and still is one of the illest all time TBH. His opening bars on songs destroy most cats whole albums.
Fo sho
💯💯💯
There's a 2nd prodigy verse on the album
This is why Havoc is a top 5 producer for me
He always made the best beats
Like seriously, this beat and the Shook ones beat are probably the sickest ever! Wish we still had rap like this, and none of that hotline bling shit.
We still have it just look better ;)
Amen!
I like "Hotline Bling" too but I agree with you. Hip Hop nowdays isn't good
+Laura Pascual you mustn't of been raised and in the 90s and loved hip hop.

I'm right here
Why censor the lyrics? It takes away the fire in it
Mobb deep till I die
nope 🙄
Count me in.
This some of the greatest shit ever rapped. Even the “gangsta” rapers had social commentary records as well.
We'll never get such times ever again in our history...😭😭😭Those times were golden!

Not ahead of its time… it’s called TIMELESS.

This level of talent for producing should be illegal. This beat is absolutely timeless. I can wake up 200 years in the future and jam to this.

They were ahead of their time with the prophecy and informative lyrics about how DEMONIC the world is now.
Ozzy Osbourne did it way before in the 70s with black sabbath. Go listen too "War Pigs"by black sabbath
