Infamous Records In celebration of the 20th anniversary of their classic 1995 album ‘The Infamous,’ Mobb Deep is releasing a two-disc retrospective ‘The Infamous Mobb Deep’ on April 1. On Tuesday (March 25), the Queensbridge duo made it available for streaming on Pandora.
The collection boasts a digitally-remastered version of ‘The Infamous’ album including outtakes and lost verses from the 1994 recording session. But the real highlight on the project is the album’s worth of new material and unreleased tracks. It all sounds fantastic!
The album features guest appearances from Snoop Dogg, the LOX, Mack Wilds, Bun B, Juicy J, Busta Rhymes, French Montana and Nas.
Mobb Deep are still in rare form on the ‘Infamous Mobb Deep.’ Some of the standout tracks on the collection include ‘Murdera,’ in which Havoc and Prodigy spit grimy bars over a concrete-breaking beat. On the anthemic ‘Legendary,’ the rap duo reflect on being survivors of the mean streets of Queensbridge as well as the rap game.
Prodigy raps: “It’s not an urban myth / No, we are the truth / If anybody gonna do it know we gonna’ do / Whole life we grind so hard to stay official / And make them n—-s hating back there, bring them some tissue.”
In addition, the 1994 Infamous Sessions feature songs that didn’t make the final cut on ‘The Infamous’ album. The scapped verses from Raekwon and Ghostface are now featured on ‘Eye for an Eye.’ Songs like ‘The Money’ and ‘Get It in Blood’ that were not on the original album are now remastered for your listening pleasure.
In the end, if you are a true Mobb Deep fan this album is a must buy.
It’s amazing that 20 years later, Mobb Deep has released another classic album with their ‘The Infamous Mobb Deep’ retrospective.
