- From 1993 Album: "Juvenile Hell"
Mobb Deep was an American hip hop duo from the Queensbridge Houses in New York City. The group consisted of Havoc and Prodigy and was "one of the most critically acclaimed hardcore East Coast Hip-Hop groups." They were known for their dark, hardcore delivery as exemplified in "Shook Ones (Part II)." Mobb Deep became one of the most successful rap duos in hip hop, having sold over three million records. Mobb Deep's net worth was estimated at $10 million USD. Prodigy passed away in Las Vegas, Nevada. He sucummbed to his long battle with sickle cell anemia.
Two of their albums have been critical successes; The Infamous (1995) and Hell on Earth (1996). The group briefly disbanded in 2012 but later reunited.
In 1992, before Mobb Deep was officially established, Havoc and Prodigy originally went by Poetical Prophets and released their first demo titled Flavor for the Nonbelievers which was promoted through the Unsigned Hype column of The Source magazine. In 1993, Havoc and Prodigy, released their debut album, Juvenile Hell, which was promoted by the single "Peer Pressure." Also that year, Havoc made a guest appearance on the Black Moon album Enta Da Stage on a song titled "U Da Man." In 1994 the duo released a single titled "Shook Ones Part 1".
The group saw its first major success with their second album, The Infamous, released in 1995. Mobb Deep catapulted to the top of the hardcore hip-hop scene through Havoc and Prodigy's straightforward narration of street life. In this album, Mobb Deep portrayed the struggles of living in New York City's Queensbridge Houses where Havoc grew up. Following the release of The Infamous, Mobb Deep became some of the most prolific artists of the East Coast. The production of this album was very dark and sample-based thanks to Havoc, who produced the beats from this point forward.[9] Furthermore, the hit single "Shook Ones Pt. II", a remix to the hit Shook Ones, received critical acclaim.
Mobb Deep's third album, Hell on Earth was released in 1996 debuting at number six on the Billboard Album Chart; the album continued the duo's portrayal of harsh street life while further pushing them to the forefront of Hip Hop scene along with contemporary East Coast Rappers like The Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, Wu-Tang Clan, Big L and fellow Queensbridge rapper Nas. Nas as well as Method Man and Raekwon of the Wu Tang Clan appear on 'Hell on Earth'.
In 1996, they appeared on the Red Hot Organization's compilation CD, America is Dying Slowly alongside Biz Markie, Wu-Tang Clan and Fat Joe among many other prominent Hip Hop artists. This compilation was solely meant to raise awareness of the AIDS epidemic among African American men and this compilation was heralded as "a masterpiece" by The Source Magazine, a Hip Hop publication. 1997 Mobb Deep was featured on Frankie Cutlass "Politics & Bullsh*t" album track title "Know Da Game" which also features Kool G Rap. In 1998, the duo collaborated with reggae dancehall artist Bounty Killer on the track "Deadly Zone" for the soundtrack to Blade. In 1999, they released the highly anticipated Murda Muzik album which, despite extensive bootlegging, had the majority of its songs unintentionally leaked. This resulted in delays in the official album release. When the album was officially released, it eventually debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and quickly received Platinum Certification and was further promoted by the popular single "Quiet Storm." Shortly afterward, Prodigy released his long-awaited solo album H.N.I.C in which he collaborated with fellow artists like (B.G., N.O.R.E.) and producers (including The Alchemist, Rockwilder and Just Blaze).
Mobb Deep released Infamy while in 2001 the song "Burn" (featuring Vita) was perceived as a response to Jay-Z's diss song "Takeover" on The Blueprint, as was "Crawlin'," in which Prodigy's two verses both mention Jay-Z. The album marked a major stylistic change in which the duo moved away from a raw, minimalist, stripped-down beat toward a commercial friendly in terms with such songs as "Hey Luv (Anything)." This transition fostered accusations of "selling out." In 2003, the group split with Loud Records and released Free Agents: The Murda Mix Tape, in which Havoc and Prodigy proclaimed themselves "free agents" and addressed the group's split with its old label and its search for a new label. Jive Records signed the duo later in the year through a deal with the group’s own imprint. Mobb Deep then released Amerikaz Nightmare in 2004. The record sold poorly and lead to the group’s departure from the label. Today, as a result of various mergers, all of Mobb Deep's studio albums from 1995 to 2004 are owned by Sony Music Entertainment.

This was my shit. Me and My Crew, Locked in Spofford, Peer Pressure and Hold Down the Fort.... So classic. RIP P👑
Wow. They were young kids when they were young. They didn't grow and looked the same even as adults. Mobb deep, raw talent
They were young kids when they were young ? ah ?
They were young kids when they were young? Were they also adults when they were adults? WTF??? 😂😂😂
Prodigy changed the most, his voice got way deeper.
They really looked always amazingly same lol. Always around 25-30 even when they were teenagers or in their 50s lol
When kids rocked baldheads lol
That was heavily Rocked as the Style in the early 90s this style was just as big as rocking a fade. With onyx and many other influences.
Tupac
Da youngstaz.
What do mean? Havoc still rock’s a Baldhead till this very day.
@@jeanemlicar i think its because Hav would look goofy wit dreads or any other hairstyle 💀 im used to his bald head
it's a shame to hear about the loss of another great mc from the HIP HOP community im in shock .RIP prodigy
First heard this on Strech and Bobbito 89.9FM NYC. Liked it from the first listen. Never knew it was a Premo track tho.
Prodigy RIP brother.
Young havoc be lookin like floyd mayweather haha, this album was nice but the infamous just over shadows it so much its like it aint even mobb deeps debut

@@geegraves7242 me too. That's why I ask. When did Littles passed away 🤔 I know TJ, Hav's brother. He had the 👓, Sha was the shortest dude there. Scarface 🕊️, was one of the tallest. And you got P 🕊️ Littles & Illa Ghee in the video as well. And P man's Stobo.
This song is a diamond in the rough.
1992 was my year. This track was out back in the fall of 1992 when I was in fifth grade. This track is so relevant it isn't even funny. Mobb Deep were so ahead of their time.
Mobb Deep dropping some knowledge in this joint....peer pressure is realer than real....make some folks rob make some folks kill or just act ill.
Tune is still fire! 🔥.
Rest in Power Prodigy 👊🏾👊🏾
My favorite rap duo of all time...this is from Juvenile Hell...
These guys were so fucking ahead of their time. Wow.
My man Knucks hanging on the fence, Big Twin in the yellow hoodie (R I P), and my man DJ Prince A D ( R I P).
Big Twin is alive. It's Scarface that passed.
this track is hard. Mobb Deep 4 ever!!
Happy 46th BDAY to RIP Prodigy 2020!!!!

Rest in peace prodigy you left a legacy with your rawness and lyrics really inspired me 💪🏾
Rest In Power Prodigy
It's always interesting looking at a debut before they blew up..Juvenile Hell is definitely one of those.
Can’t forget Fat Joe’s Represent. That was a dope low key debut as well.
Rest in peace. True legend! Respect from Poland!
R.I.P Prodigy....Another legend gone!!!
Going from this to the infamous is just crazy.
I’m glad they were peer pressured to make a better album after this! Mobb Deep forever . . .
R.I.P. P! Hopefully you and Pac can squash the beef up there!
i already miss him. RIP Prodigy. Mobb Deep Legend
Dam look how young they was crazy
Makes me feel old but this music is just life.
Street realism this song is capable of enticing on 💯💯💯💯 Salute 2 these dudes and DJ Preemo behind the concrete jungle beat. Rap back then in those times knew how to drop raw knowledge and how to tell life stories, fo' sho.
RIP P, Salute Hav #MOBB4EVER
i waz 15 when i bought this album juvenile hell
SKIP U I remember seeing this video, when I was 14. Afterwards, I forgot about them. THEN, The Infamous came out. I became a diehard Mobb Deep fan.
1Dub79 same here bro
Word I was 17 lol

Rest In Power Prodigy you’ll forever be missed n remembered
Classic 🔥 🔥🔥
Prodigy looking like Jaden Smith 😂😂
Word this is when I first heard of mobb deep !! I was living in Colombia and my cousin dj byos sent me the tape plus the videos like this one and hit em from the back !! Rip prodigy !! Respects to havoc !! Damm sad times in hip hop !!
Repose en paix Prodigy,moob deep et Big l les meilleurs en rap us,le vrai hip hop👍👍👍
Cannot believe I forgot about this track, yo mtv raps was a long time ago!! use to tape these videos on vhs back in the day, classic early mobb deep, RIP Prodigy.
Track is still hard. You could hear/see their potential and Primo’s production was ill as usual. Just wasn’t their time at that given moment...needless to say, their time would definitely come 💯
Extremely underrated track IMO
Wow!! This song has a strong message but it's the reality of the streetife. This is the first time I hear this song, it's a hard track.
this album gives off a COMPLETELY different vibe from the infamous, i fw both of em
The Beginning of the 2 Legends
R.I.P. Albert "Prodigy" Johnson 1974 - 2017
2:46 Killa B? That's crazy how Prodigy's last verse foreshadows almost exactly what happened to Black
Wow that is crazy smh
@Truth IS he shot himself in the head in the bathtub that was havoc brother he was a goon in them streets frfr.
Yo, here it is, 2020, almost 2021 and I'm just now peeping that.
That's f***king crazy for real.
Yeah, Hav’s real brother Killa Black. P revealed it in his book for those who weren’t aware, myself included.
Very true. Rip killa b (rip Kenny in the video and many in da hood dealing wit da pressure)
Mad Respect R.I.P Mobb Deep
I've been followin Mobb Deep since Peer Pressure, Voždovac - Beograd - BMW - Nike treša !!!
Rest in peace. He died of Sickle-cell anemia and he is holding a Sickle in this video.
the irony of life its like it was an Oman Sad tho
The irony of the demonic music industry.
ajman66 It's actually not ironic. I believe he did that on purpose. Deliberate symbolism.
ajman66 I don't remember this was this on the juvenile hell album
So you just gonna parrot my comment? LOL
Wow!...look at these guys had to be around 15 or 16 yrs.old...cuz I missed this one...sounding like a conscious late 80's early 90's rap group...Tribe must've of been one their favorites growing up😉✊...One thing 4sure they were the epitome of " Brotherly Love " & " Togetherness " on and off Stage!!!✊👊✌💪🤝😎
I believe they were 17-19
They around 18 going on 19.
@@traviscarter1023 1992, so 17 to 18.
Qtip actually help produce the album after this one
This is the kind of song that you listen to at least once a day for the rest of your life.Mobb Deep for life.
this was that shit!!!! early 90s shit!!!! strictly polo and guess!!!!
That JAZZ flavor is so refreshing and takes my mind back to my childhood in early 90s NYC
On the strength!👊🏾
What's the name of the sample
Premo's signature
@@dangelofleurimond8179 the song samples dead by cresa watson and high snobriety by babygravy
Most don't understand how it is
In the world of today growin up as a young black teen
I used to dream, of bein a architect
Easier said than done, believe me it's hard to get
Out of the projects, without forgettin where you came from
My parents told me from day one
Finish school and avoid all obstacles
But my environment, makes it so impossible
Very True lyrics people become products of there enviroments
Niggas don’t even understand how real this record is if u was born in NYC from 75-90 shit was gritty grimy frfr like they say NYC is crazy today but it was a different time crime and drugs was really everywhere crack had shit so bleak in elementary kids used to come to school dirty stinky and hungry then u had kids in like Junior High and High School that was slinging frfr and had so much Tommy Polo and gold jewelry crazy Jordans still getting good grades or playing ball like Havoc Said “how would I get the cash? It gotta be easy and it gotta be fast” 😂 everybody used to hustle though just people did it more for survival or to stack and make a big move than flex and set themselves up to get robbed haha plus even though a lot of peoples moms knew they sold drugs to pay rent and bills it still was frowned upon like u couldn’t be blatant about certain shit ppl had more morals. The 3rd verse is interesting too it was rough growing up in the city back in the day I think this song really paints a vivid picture of it tbh it’s kinda like a pre Giuliani era time capsule 💎
Hood Era Hip-Hop Forever
Damn this track so underrated
I would literally buck my self to get P back makes me wanna cry ........
Damn u real 4 that
With the AxE in hand 0:22 FTW! R.I.P Love this boys, very epic rare
Brutal este tema larga vida a Prodigy donde quiera que esté!
'Juvenile Hell' was my introduction to the Mobb...two hip hop greats, now P no longer with us. rest in power and peace to Prodigy🙏🏾
RIP PRODIGY!!!
Classic DJ Premier!!!!!!
RIP Prodigy, Yammy, Twin, Kiko
Rest in peace King P!
I have a memory from 92’ in Alphabet-city when I was squatting in a building there, during a huge punk show in a warehouse in the Bronx. I came around the corner from the squat and there was a rap-group filming a video with a camcorder in the vacant lot across from me. I remember them walking just like that with a couple of weapons. Can’t believe I found the video. Footage is too blurry to see me in the background, to the left, by the red brick building. Prodigy was f**kin’ punk-rock! Miss hearing him talk.✌️😔
Word it looks like they were walking from avenue D to avenue C on 8th street i believe, i miss the old LES
so crazy seeing them this young
This track was slept on
All these years i never knew Premier produced this beat...as obvious as it is
This is sick!
P had mad tatts from 93... RIP the true master ...... P
so good to just hear music with out YEA UH AYE every other word RIP PRODIGY
real rap music unlike today
Banging tune 👌
This is what it was like growing up in the grimey city of roaches and rats. Mobb deep kept it 100 and always relatable to nyc street cats. None of us grew up with mansions and yachts like all the other wack mc's claim to be.
Old school hip-hop mobb deep pressure music 🎶
I totally forgot about this track until I got notified by DJ Premier's podcast.
I bought this back then when nobody knew who they were. R.I.P prodigy! Peace to Mobb Deep.
michael smith me too I'm a day one fan !

@@captaindowntown7851 wow
It’s crazy to me on how Killa Black played Kenny in this video. And later on in life, Killa ended up getting drunk and 🔫 himself just like what happened in the video. RIP Prodigy and RIP Killa Black
Prodigy lookin like Fresh Prince of New Yitty
Havoc's brother "Killer" who committed suicide in real life plays Kenny in the video, and in the verse that Havoc wrote for Prodigy rapping about Kenny who started drinking, smoking weed, and messing up in school, at the end of the verse, Kenny committed suicide. It's spooky that "Killer Black" plays Kenny in the video. This is from "My Infamous Life" by Prodigy pac 121
Rest in peace
