Prodigy (Hip-Hop) Return Of The Mac
Hardcore; gritty; provocative; these are just a few of the adjectives that described Mobb Deep’s brand of hardcore gangsta rap on their early albums. The Queensbridge natives painted dark illustrations of street life encumbered with all the graphic details you would see if you were actually in the hood; couple that with exceptional production, blunt and pointed lyrics and good chemistry between the members (Prodigy and Havoc) and you have the reason why the Mobb built a loyal fan base. At one point, the more outspoken of the duo, Prodigy did his solo thing. Although the album sales probably didn’t break the bank, he put together a dope album leaving fans salivating for more. Seven years later, loyalists receive capital P and long time associate and producer, the Alchemist, for Return of the Mac.

”Return of the Mac”
The track is funky; very 80s like. Prodigy launches into his own rendition of New York shit. He raps “I’m on my New York shit/Mobb Deep ni**a, Queens New York shit/orange box cutter that New York shit/guzzle the whole bottle, that’s a New York sip.” He continues this throughout the track.
“Stuck on You”
Alchemist uses an old school sample as the foundation of this track continuing the soulful tone. Prodigy rhymes about his vices verse by verse. The first stanza is about cash; the second about guns and the last about sexy women.
