Mobb Deep - Hell on Earth 19th Anniversary Official Celebration/Appreciation Thread Daps and Reps

[frush11]

Maybe. Dunno about now though. Havoc fell off production wise. He aint the same like how he was 20 or 15 years ago. Those beats he did on the recent album are blah.

Im talking about during that era, but that 'Timeless' beat is noiicce

[ZEB WALTON]

i prefer this to the infamous. the beats were incredible. havoc peaked and found his sound on here. prodigy hit his lyrical peak on here. I dont see how anyone can say this isnt the superior album.

top 10 hip hop album to me, maybe top 3-5 idk

 

[Barney Rubble]

In my top 5 albums of all time. I still remember where I was the first time I heard it. This shyt put mobb over wu-tang for me at the time.

it ain't the same. havoc's beats used to be a lot faster and had some drums and drum patterns that went along with the piano loop or whatever he was sampling. nowadays, he doesn't do that anymore. he'll have a sick beat here or there but now he doesn't seem hungry like that anymore.




something like this. this shyt is sick.

 

[JahFocus CS]

Legendary.

This classic joint was meant for Hell on Earth too, but Nas ended up with it. I always made sure to throw it on as a bonus. Pretty sure they recorded Give It Up Fast after they gave this to Nas.

EDIT: My only problem with this song is I wish the little sound effects that come in at 2:45 came in earlier at other parts of the beat, because they sound cool.

This was done around LA LA the original west coast version. Prodigy didn't think Sony was going to cut a check for the verse.

He dropped this heat, Twista try to style on him.




edit
I never knew he had a remix of best of the best with Vado

You couldn't wait one more year till 20?

 

[I.AM.PIFF]

What's that from breh?

No idea breh

 

[Gryme]

Havoc really created a new sound for this album, after this dropped you can see producers starting to copy that piano loop with a choppy bass pattern formula. Even to this day when people make beats saying its a "mobb deep style" beat, they always emulate that hell on earth formula. Shows how signature hav's style is.

Anyways some rare joints from the same era:

 

[Get Right]

I remember recording the song HoE off the radio before the album dropped..

Copped the casette and vinyl..

Played daily for the next year.

Rocking my Helly Hansen black & teal Gort-tex jacket & Gort-tex tims smoking blunts & drinking 40s in the park 20 deep ready to start some fukkery....

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

Prince should've cleared this for the album

If we talking Mobb and Hell On Earth how can we leave out this gem which would have fit nicely on the album

I dont think this verse gets enough love from heads..Top 5 P verse to me I would seriously put prime Prodigy against any rapper..just the way he writes & you can visualize his lyrics is a skill not too many(or if any) rappers nowadays can do & need to study plus accompanied by Havoc's eerie beatsIt was like listening to a hood version of a Stephen King horror novel in the 90's..Just ill
