The duo recently announced a deal with Sony’s RED to distribute projects released on their Infamous Records shingle. This marks the first time that Mobb Deep has released a new batch of tracks in five years.

R.I.P. Mobb Deep 1995-1999
It were 4 great years.
And now to old, not relevant, talking to much bullshit in interviews, snitching etc.
Kanye West is 34, Mobb Deep (prodigy & havoc) is 37. Lol, yeah, they’re old.
How is age a factor? Rock stars still make killer music when they’re like 60. YOU’RE IGNORANT!
More gimmick hiphop from rappers that are not relevant anymore.
Please put down the mic and stop embarrassing yourselfs. You were never real streetcats and getting arested for smoking weed or carrying a weapon is dumb shit. Please stop acting tuff
what the fuck do you know about the streets? haha
Mobbdeep th, they even whooped it and still doing it the best !!!They even whooped 2 pac’s ass
Drop a gem on em
Prodigy the best rapper
3 words homie: Hit em up!
They never did confront each other physically, dumbass…
Word I Gotta Give It To Mobb Deep Out Of All Rappers Pac Dissed It Was Mobb Deep Who Was The Only Ones NOT SCARED TO GO AT HIM An Yup They Dropped A Gem On Em LoL
its the mobb one of the greatest to ever do it cannot wait for this!!!
I always see these repeated retarded comments about ages, especially trying to clown on Kanyes age…so what if Kanye is 34? And if some artists are older? Fuck, listen to the music…and get off Yeezy’s nuts…
Buy the music and stop being quier!!!!
*queer
Yea heterosexual hiphop fans go buy an album by a previous ballernia or a dude that beefd with tupad but called gucci man great..yea i want that album. Fuck p.
7 or 8 songs?? thats not a album i like mobb deep ,but i gotta have at lest 15 joints on their.an as for age 30 an over is hip hop any thing under that is pop.thas like telling those rock stars to stop rocking out after 30 lol thell look at u like your crazy,these lil rug rats need to learn how to rap before they pick up the mic.being xtra skinny or working out doesnt mean your kool,swag is sumthing your born with ask nas ,biggie,pac,jay z,peace
That’s why it’s an ep…retard
oh i thought it ws a whole album,i red it wrong,sssallgood.
Now THATS a f*ckin Title!
Will yall please get at Nas about that “Life Is Good” bullshit?
Tell him we need that “Natural Science” or better yet “Nigga Against Society”!
Lets GO Queens!!
Sincerely Da Soufside Savior…
better be on sale for 4.99 otherwise nobody buying that shit.
its been a long time, could be hot who knows
I hope is some of that gritty ass project, gutta, pissy elevator, weed smokin, liquor drinkin type shit they used to make. And for the record…Hell on Earth was better than The Infamous. Be Nice!! LOL
rap is not a contact sport there is no age limit.mobb deep will always have fans they dont need this era to except them besides all the best rappers are 30+ anyway so if age is a problem listen to music strictly from rappers in your age range and see how much fun you have with that shit hahaa.
Fuck peoples talkin bout age for, especially considering 90% of the new rappers are lame as fuck??
Even Mobb Deep past their prime still shits on the gay shit people listen to now, Prodigy on HNIC 2 >>>>>> Lil B, Tyler The Creator, and all the other faggot shit kids listen to now
Fucking Close Mind
rebbusciu, you’re close minded
Naw orignal poster is..ive never know one person to listen to lil b or any of that shit. Like not one. In fact the only times ive heard their names were here..
P and Hav are gonna be the first 89 yr. olds to rap about coke and guns.
How you holding up an uzi when you can’t get outta the bed and take a piss? No, really.
Of course they’re not there yet, but you get the point.
AHAHAH!
They’re 37!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fucking cornball
“The Black Cocaine EP” – Wow how original. Neither dude can spit anymore, in all honesty i’ve not heard anything good from them on the mic since 2000ish. So played out and boring now.
what you crazy ?
Explain to me how i’m crazy.
I’ll explain to you how you’re crazy, you fucktard. Go listen to Prodigy’s Return of The Mac, which came out in 2008. Oh yeah, and then go fuck yourself.
prodigy dropped a mixtape when he came home. bumpy johnsom lp.
^Which was also good. Bumpy Ellsworth actually.
Prodigy didn’t spit a hot verse since H.N.I.C., STFU, you delusional groupie cunt.
Obviously none of u niggas talking shit have even LISTENED to the prodigy ep nor heard his verse on evidence’s fame off cats & dogs if u think he aint spit nothing hot since 2000s
GROW MEN RUN THE STREETS NOT KIDS
You think Modd Deep “run the streets”? Aha. Only thing they running is that ballet class!
Oh wow, “Modd” Deep. Good job. What the fuck does that even mean? Stupid cunt.
Or listen to him dissing and beefing with gods like pac…then getting out of jail and saying everyone in the industry is amazing…..fuck prodigy lil ballernias ass. #solld out.
the subject matter in most rap music is not for kids anyway so who gives a fuck what they think go dougie or do some other dance you kids do
I’m looking forward to this. Alchemist and Hav’s production never disappoints. Hopefully the beats sound good in the car. Prodigy and Havoc’s lyrics will be an extra plus if they’re on point.
yall dissing mobb deep fuck outta here go listen to gay z and tuncehi faggots make me sick lil wayne tellin yall faggots how to love
U realize how valid it is to talk shit about at least prodigy? In the 90s beefed with eveeeryone even people 10x better then him cough pac, jay z etc etc etc. Gets out of jail dickrides the entire industry cus he knows he cant sell a record..gtfo proigys a faggot besides dudes career= over at the summer jam show when jay z showed him in a tutu.
Who the fuck is this anonymous fool?
They talk about petty crime and you cats got kids….make better music with things real people go through …Prodigy …is too old to dress like that …he look like a person trying to be a rappper for Halloween.
Grow up I like old mobb Deep for the time but yall grew up and so have your fans…
It’s the Mobb Deep forever!!!
It’s gotta have the classic feel with featured artist such as Ghostface, Raekwon, and Nas
MOBB DEEP AND ALL THAT
niggas dissing the mobb? shut the fuck up. petty crime? shut the fuck up. 2 of the most talented street artists ever. respect or step off. like the cover, like the idea of an EP leading into an album. will def. support when it drops.
Buy it you bitch ass niggas
Hope it’ll be dope.
Takeover >>> Mobb Deep’s existence.
Kanye’s swag >>> The Infamous & Hell On Earth combined.
EPIC FAIL AT TROLLING!
Trolling? This is the truth.
kanye’s a bitch
P’s first bar on Shook Ones >>>>>>> Anything anyone has ever written for Kanye
Yeah right. Shook Ones Pt. 2 is dumb ass elementary rhyming, immature, lame and nursery. Kanye is a musical genius and has one of the highest rap IQ’s ever. Kanye crafts so much more awareness and intelligence into his lyrics than those lowlife fucks who call themselves Mobb Deep could ever grasp.
Stronger >>> The Infamous.
I’m Gay >>> Shook Ones Pt. 2.
GTFO LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!
A good pic!
(shaking my head at the idiot trolls rolling amongst this story)
Mobb Deep weak? Yeah ok. Niggas probably think being called a metrosexual is a cool thing when it’s a way to call someone a bitch ass and make money off of it. Feminine onion soup head bastards.
🙁
I feel bad for you, I bet it’s hard to hard to live in the past.
Mobb Deep are able to excite people for their music in 2011? What the fuck? I thought this was as realistic as The R.E.D. Album going platinum.
from a marketing perspective this is when Detox should drop as well for maximum profits. otherwise forget it.
Mobb Sleep returns to punnish the airwaves again….damn….didnt Pac and Jay kill theses niggaz..Theyre careers were dead when they signed with G-Unit. Black Cocaine……should just name it Lyrical Ambien…These niggaz are boring….Nas and Banks runs Queens anyway.
Jay murdered these fools.
Gotta feelin this will be pretty good. Ain’t gonna be there old stuff but ain’t gonna be blood money neither. For y’all saying they in the past, listen to some of their more recent solo albums.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRRA7gx-R44
2pac said it best in When We Ride On Our Enemies.
“Here’s a word to those that robbed me
I murder you then I, run a train on Mobb Deep! Don’t fuck with me
Nigga you’re barely livin, don’t you got sickle cell?
See me have a seizure on stage, you ain’t feelin well, hell”
And who’s alive!!!!
thats why the sick nigga is still alive and pac is in a box.
sickle cell >>> bullets
That`s interesting verbiage for someone who was supposed to be so pro-black,lol!
gettin it ! support the mobb
and to all u ppl sayin jay killed mobb….the infamous>resonable doubt haha face it shook ones part 2 is jayz favorite song…cant deny classics shit that whole album over the entire rocafella catalog
return of the mac >>> any jay-z album after the black album
hnic 2 >>> any jay-z album after american gangster
2011 prodigy >>> 2011 jay z
fuck the bullshit. prodigy got more classic verses and gets better beats in 2011. jigga is struggling to flow on electric kangay beats while p bodies sid roams and alc bangers. jigga stans.
Prodigy is as weak as the “new and improved” Shyne…you must be 50Tyson.
Hahahahahahahhahaha.
Jay is so much more talented than Prodigy in his prime ever was.
One clever Jay line > P’s discography.
The Infamousd Forlife!
Jay-Z killed them in Takeover.
“I don’t care if you Mobb Deep, I hold triggers to crews
You little FUCK, I’ve got money stacks bigger than you
When I was pushin weight, back in eighty-eight
you was a ballerina I got your pictures I seen ya
Then you dropped “Shook Ones,” switch your demeanor
Well – we don’t believe you, you need more people
Roc-A-Fella, students of the game, we passed the classes
Nobody could read you dudes like we do
Don’t let ’em gas you like Jigga is ass and won’t clap you
Trust me on this one – I’ll detach you
Mind from spirit, body from soul
They’ll have to hold a mass, put your body in a hole
No, you’re not on my level get your brakes tweaked
I sold what ya whole album sold in my first week”
That was the cutest verse ever, along with the picture!
Jay killed them with ease.
This article has nothing to do with Jay and stop acting like Jay is flawless. Jay-Z’s “The Blueprint 2:The Gift and The Curse” and “Kingdom Come” both garbage albums read it and weep. And the saddest part about it is the fact that the critics are too damn scared to tell you so but it’s the truth. I’m tired of critics trying to cover up some of Jay-Z’s garbage albums because he does have a few garbage albums but the media treats him like he doesn’t probably because he pays them to.
It has allot to do with Jay-Z still cause Prodigy’s dumb as is still trying to go at Jigga, He’s a glutton for punishment. He doesnt learn at all. Theses nigga are so boring that they could put could use their music in nurseries to put babies to sleep.They Infamously suck dick…I cant stand that nigga are still dickriding theses clowns.Im not a big Jay-Z fan but lyrically he killed them and then moved on. P is still living in the past.
fuck these gangsta wannabes. nobody is checking them in 2011.
retire its not 1995 anymore. leave the mic alone.
infamous 4 life mainstream dick rider
Infamous is soooo overrated.
Fuck these wack ass niggas…they were wack when they first dropped, and they still ain’t poppin’. Oh, by the way, Havok is a homo and P is covering for him. Look at any Mobb Deep interview and you’ll see that gay nigga trying to act like he ain’t flamboyant. SMH, Jay killed your career, then took a shit on the grave they dug fucking with Pac…fake ass gangstas.
Exactly!!!
2Pac this, 2Pac that…….
2Pac is fucking dead. Murked. Get off his dick. Please.
I sense a lil envy. Aint dickriding just stating the obvious….Mobb Sleep will always be look at as lower level MC’s. They never change at all. Not their sound or production. Just face it nigga, They played out in the 90’s. And nigga, you need to stop hating on Pac. He will always still be consider one of the GOAT along with Biggie. So you need to shut your bitch ass up if you don’t know what you’re talking bout. You were probably born in the 90’s weren’t you.
Haven’t heard the ep yet so i don’t think it’s right to judge from the title. + i think it’s funny how people always whine about how they’re not like the old MOBB anymore but as soon as rappers come up with some new shit they get pissed on.. Make up your mind!
Most overrated group ever. They were rip offs back then an they’re untalented as fuck. Nobody wants to hear those fags rapping about a lifestyle they never lived in 2011. There are rappers out there who rap 100 times better, moved on and are still able to talk about themes like this without being complete clowns. P’s last EP was horrible, the rhyming was elemntary and immature as fuck.
you sound like my old mother!
How the f do you know what the fing album is going to sound like you jackass?
Was prodigy that rapper who was beaten up:
keith murray,
2pac,
tru life
saigon
etc…
So you are really so tough Prodigy? Even in the subburbs they will beat you ass.
Nothing more childish then rappers which are 42 years old that are claiming that they are killers, hustlers, players etc.
didnt saigon get chased out of the club while prodigy stood on the stage and i believe 2pac got his ass beat, shot and robbed in ny and was later killed in las vegas
Theres a preeety big difference between gettin ur ass beat and gettin jumped and gettin shots a little different then u chillin in a car and ur window gets shot the fuck up. And i never once heard some shit bout saigon running from p..quite the opposite check ur history.
Mobb Sleep.
kind of shoddy work but I like the concept none the less, 3 stars
What happened to their music?
Wow at some of the comments here. Let’s be real about this:
– Mobb Deep haven’t released a good group album since Murda Muzik.
– Jay has been coasting on average lyrics and production with the exception of American Gangster for a while now.
– Prodigy at his best (Infamous/Hell on Earth era) was around as good as Jay in a different way.
– That beef has been done for a while now and nobody cares.
In closing, I’m still checking for both artists even though both are lyrically and beat selection-wise well past their prime. If this album is 7/10 or above it will be better than BP3 and Kingdom Come and around as good as Watch the Throne.
Wow, someone with common sense on this site. I have to agree with this whole statement. I don’t understand all this. Why do you have to like one of them? Isn’t it possible to like Mobb Deep and Jay? Both deliver great music (or have so in the past) in their own way. Be glad that Hip Hop has so many styles.
well said. however, Infamy was pretty decent and American Gangster was horrid. Keep up the intelligent comments though, i thought no one on here had a clue haha.
“- Prodigy at his best (Infamous/Hell on Earth era) was around as good as Jay in a different way.”
in that era, that version of P would have bodied ANYBODY. (name your fav rapper) i bump Infamous/Hell on Earth back to back i consider them the best of their catalog.
Even Jay said that Prodigy was the best rapper on the planet in his prime.
Sorry yall on crack..wtt over kingdom come? Shit maybe listen to albums before postin shit wtt has like 3 songs where they rap past that r+b shit kingdom comes got like 8 very good jay songs. Prodigy sucks hes a faggot who tried to beef with pac and the beef with j aint relevant to u….cus ur ass didnt kno who jay or p was when jay did that summerjam shit sorry that was career murder. That and the takeover? And jay aint even on my top5.
Funny thing is, Takeover destroyed Mobb’s career, but saved Nas’.
WOW. HNIC, Return of the Mac, HNIC 2 and Product of the 80s were quality albums.
after a bout 12 years in the game they start doing the cocaine gimmick ha ha ha
It’s a lot better than wearing tight women jeans, and talking about big ass Ferrari’s and how much your dick get sucked.
they should move with the times and start wearing jeggings like lil wayne. thatd be mature.
STFU
dx should look into banning retards from posting garbage
Or they can do neither and be them fucking selves..u both should of been aborted.
NO WACK FEATURES! this is a good looking Mobb project… I’ll cop it , no question.
get it forever
Get the fuck out haters Mobb Deep QB forever
Dude u aint troublesome to ur fuckin hall monitor. Qb forever fuck mob deep nas and kool g for life.
mobb deep is 45 years old or something and still talking about cocaine????? Grow the fuck up you fake ass clowns and fuck nas who used to call himself nas escobar. everybody is dissing ross but what about nas. the fake cocaine dealer from the 90’s
So you’re telling me you grew up in queensbridge housing and knew what was going on back in the days haha i see that mobb deep comment ain’t no lie about that but Nas is a different story + you haven’t heard the ep yet so let’s rank the content of the songs after it drops
Nas never lived that life, everyone who was in Queensbridge around that time confirmed it. Nothing wrong with that, but he shouldn’t act like a don sometimes.
HE’S 36YEARS YOUNG YOU IDIOT@
nas has a song called Rise and Fall where he breaks down all of this.. funny how you all have ignorant perspectives and yet you all talk like you know exactly what was up..
Lessons from heaven/
Every night I slept with my weapon/
to guard my family for a minute
I forgot my profession/ not from Columbia or Nicaragua/ Don’t distribute coke from Antigua that shipped out to Panama/
Pablo Escobar’s bloody reign came to an end/
Far from my life; a kid who made his fame from a pen/
Hit the studio and change the game again/
Wrote down all the pain within/
top of the charts..Triple platinum, got the fake love back/ money stacks/ more plaques….”
even he claims that shit was far from his life as he only took that image at some point in his career..know what you are talking about before you pop off. by the way..IT’S ONLY ENTERTAINMENT. stop taking things way too serious
Was prodigy that rapper who was beaten up:
keith murray,
2pac,
tru life
saigon
etc…
So you are really so tough Prodigy? Even in the subburbs they will beat you ass.
Nothing more childish then rappers which are 42 years old that are claiming that they are killers, hustlers, players etc.
Wow. This argument hasn’t been heard before. It must hurt you pretty bad that this EP is gonna be fire.
who cares?
hes dropped more classic music then everyone on the list. still going. maturity level of rap fans never ceases to amaze me. imagine fans of another genre shitting on an artist for their personal life. “oh him? the guy that got beat up”. the only people that let that effect their opinion of the music aren’t very smart. if it’s not about the music, who gives a fuck, really? dumb people.
fuck haters,mobb deep all day forever.must go hard bitches.noboby cant touch the mobb shit.rip your list,capone,jayz etc
Fuck that who cares if he got his ass whipped by them dude tried to beef with all of them and if u think hes better then pac, keith murray, or saigon u nuts. Talks shit about legends in the 90s gets out broke as fuck and dick rides the industry calls all of them hot..the fucks real about that? And shit nas? That dude needs every bit of hype he can get.
WTF you talkin bout, Saigon sucker punched P on stage, that was some bitcha$s move. P ain’t never backed down from nobody. You sound like some bitch with their tail tucked between his legs anyway so i won’t even stress.
return of the mac
hnic 2
product of the 80’s
killing guest spots everywhere. mobb is back doing what they do. if youre salty about it youre not a mobb fan. shut the fuck up, find something else to ride with. too many lames putting time into writing about things they don’t care about. when you say you dont care, and take time to tell us, you care. clowns.
5 fucking songs? These dudes must be mad broke.
yeah your right your ep’s much better, fucking tool
Back to the essence!!!
LOL @ only 5 songs tho, but whatever, P been gettin it in since he came home, I’ma check for it
yo, fuck these tight pant wearing faggo muscle shirt wearing color dying fags…time to bring back that raw style with timb boots and baggy jeans to let my nuts hang freely and oversize shirts that will make ur mommas nipples hard cus she like a real nigga…
They need to step it up again, tired of Nas rapping circles around them with ease.
For everyone complaining about “5 songs”.. It’s an EP.. Take an introductory course on music please. .
Real talk, its good to hear the fam is back together.
Every Mobb Deep Release Requires At Least One Big Noyd Guest Appearance…
Mr. Mogul
The Em/Royce EP had 9 songs (Deluxe 11). That was a little more justifiable, but five? lol Better to keep hitting the studio and grind out a full length effort. That would be an introductory to logic.
F*ck that’s Queens reppin hard right there! That’s my ppl all day! Jamaica to Hollis to QB! Bring NY back!
Really we need production by Havoc, he hasn’t really done it in years but their best albums were mostly produced by him so why mess up the formula for a great album.
I really cant believe yall defending p. Def like no real 90s dudes on here..tried to call pac whack and shit along with soo many other rappers 10x skilled as him gets out of jail and says everyone out is hot lmfao riight. And that black coke looks like hartfords dust haha black bags how i miss u
I don’t know what you talking about, but all the Hip Hip 90’s people I know respect Prodigy’s pen game.
From waaay back. I have not heard another rapper whose skills have so declined over the years.
Are you speaking about Prodigy? May I ask you to elaborate? BE CLEAR…most of us agree Jay made him double back…but regressed?
Prove that
Mobb Sleep is back to put niggaz to sleep. the 90’s are over. Evolve or Dissolve.
P raps like he has down snydrome.
Then link the Internets up with over a decade’s worth of sure-fire hits from yourself and we will take your word…until then…watch from the sidelines
I’ll listen to Mobb Deep anyday over Jay
I make beats using DUBTurbo. Tey have every sound, chord, key, drum pattern, pitch, tone you can think of..literally check it out here(copy & paste link)—> http://dubturbo.com/go.php?offer=idvision1&u=http://www.dubturbo.com/index_29.php
a
You young cats obviously don’t know shit about Prodigy. He has been one of the most consistent rappers in the past few years. He even bit his tounge and served jail time cause he wouldnt snitch! Most rappers want to be gangsta like Prodigy, but P go harder than everybody! Check that Product of the 80’s and calm your young asses down! And then ask yourself, Am I Crazy
you peps dont no s**t. what they mobb deep need to do is get alchemist and sidroams to produced the beats on this album and this album will be massive.
The Album I have has 2 more tracks.
6. Waterboarding 3:34
7.Street Lights 4:20
FYI if anyone cares
