This brings me to the second of those last two releases, H.N.I.C, and while it still is a good album, the results of the album are mixed, while some of songs are masterpieces that could compete with The Infamous material, other songs are just weak. (Head Nigga In Charge) were the last glimpse of the dark music that they made before they completely demolished their old sound and became the pop rappers that they are now. The releases Murda Muzik and Prodigy’s solo release H.N.I.C. The sad thing about Mobb Deep is that they declined a lot after that release, indulging in a more commercialized sound in later albums. It wasn’t just lyrics either, the production of the album was also very obscure, and those two things mixed well together, making one of the best hip hop records of the nineties, if not of all time. The thing that gave The Infamous loads of appeal is the fact that it was by far the darkest and most realistic view of the gangster life in the New York area.

One of those releases is Mobb Deep’s The Infamous. Then, in the years 19 with three big releases, the New York scene quickly started coming back.

Armies of West Coast rappers from the Death Row record label began coming in and took over the hip hop scene for four years. In the early nineties, the East Coast began to disappear by the second. Review Summary: Prodigy makes the last good Mobb Deep-oriented album, hold on to this for as long as you can without listening to The Infamous.
