when it comes to mobb deep i think it was mainly hav's production that kept them afloat. they had their moments and they both had a real grimey delivery, but a lot of their top shelf beats would have been better in the hands of someone else. :manny:


hav on the boards though :whew::noah:

prodigy was like 80% raw delivery imo.

I'd say 50% delivery and the other 50 his ability to be incredibly visual and visceral with his imagery, which counts for a lot in my book. Rock you in your face stab your brain with your nose bone...put holes through your shirt like jamaican clothes...just shyt like that which puts you exactly in a mind state and a place which counts a lot for an MC

i fux wit prodigy i just don't see why ppl put him on that top tier. i can't recall a single time he ever had the best verse on any posse cut. anytime a big name rapper was featured on a song (nas, mef, lil kim) the mobb took a backseat.

nas might have the most legendary career ever if he got fed hav beats like prodigy did.

I shot ya? and you always do this where someone has to be shot down in order for someone else to rise:russ: If P didn't get on another posse cut and outshine everyone, he must not be one of the greatest. That's silly breh. Especially since who outshines who is always going to be subjective. It's not a crime if he got outshined by Nas breh:mjlol: half the game does and has been for 20 years. and I'd say he and meth came out even on extortion

Meth is dope I just think he ran out things to rhyme about. After Judgment day he got kind of stale.

Yeah see I can't be objective about this but I'll try lol. I disagree. 4:21 is probably his most well rounded album and he talks about a lot there. Same with blackout 2 and anything else he's done. But on the other hand, meth had never been a topic dude. He's clever and likes to be ill
