Mobb Deep is an American hip hop duo that consists of Havoc and Prodigy. The group is perhaps best known for their dark, hardcore delivery as shown on the single "Shook Ones Pt. II." Although the group has not seen as much commercial success as some of their peers, the majority of its albums have met with critical acclaim, in particular The Infamous, which is considered an East Coast classic.

Prodigy, Havoc, Killa Black (Havoc's older brother), Big Noyd, The Twins (Gambino and Scarface), Ty Nitty, Godfather Pt. III, Ty Maxx, Gotti, Money No, Karate Joe, Stovo, and Littles all grew up together.

Havoc & Prodigy started rhyming in the late 1980s when the duo met at the High School of Art and Design in New York City. Havoc took the role of producer and secondary MC, while Prodigy assumed the position of primary M.C. Originally dubbing themselves the Poetical Profits, the duo later changed its name to Mobb Deep in order to "reflect their reputation on the streets." In the groups early career, it released the single "Cop Hell." While members of the clique were only 17, the released its debut album Juvenile Hell, which was led by the single "Peer Pressure." The album sold very poorly and was met with harsh reviews that wrote the duo off as just another hardcore group with little to distinguish them from the rest of the hip-hop world—especially with the group Illegal—despite production by DJ Premier and Large Professor. However, a few songs from Juvenile Hell gained a little recognition, such as "Hit It from the Back," "Locked in Spofford," and "Me and My Crew." Also in 1993, Havoc had a guest appearance in the critically acclaimed Black Moon album Enta Da Stage, on a song called "U Da Man."

    "received a lot of c-class leading the country with such a state well-timed. Sally Johnson is a problem" ?! who the hell is sally johnson?!

  • Now, this is HIP-HOP at it's finest right here. For the last 5 years now, I've been asking myself," How in the hell did we go from this DOPENESS to where we are today? It's a damn shame. It's like we have SOLD OUT our ROOTS, our CULTURE, and everything else just to get mainstream success today. There's NO more REAL LOVE for HIP-HOP anymore. It's ALL OVER!!!!! R.I.P.- HIP-HOP.
