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.
