I've been in business a long time,
Compare the 6double6 to a 3rd or 4th tier rap group brehs
At least put 'em against somebody that's on their level like Geto Boys or Ball & G. Or near their level like Bone Thugs, Hot Boys or UGK...
Mobb Deep comes up short in every single comparable metric for greatness in rap. Every single one.
3-6 has...
a MUCH better & deeper discog
better rappers
better production
more longetivity
a much larger impact/influence on the sound of rap
sold more records
has no ballerinas on their roster
they weren't hardcore "street" rappers that took L's in the street every 5 seconds
etc.
etc.

Mobb Deep...
36 Mafia are a WASTE of dope beats...I wish I had their instrumental catalog...The rapping is SO wack even the dope beats can't save them...

apples and oranges, hip hop fans too consumed with Vs.
How?
Project Pat is one of the best southern MCs of all time. Pat was their featured MC. Three six as a collective did more for the culture. Had they been from Queens NY in the 90s their mass appeal would be universal. There is a reason they have an Oscar for moving scoring (soundtrack) and Prodigy hasn't been the same lyrcally since 1999.
Mobb Deep is stronger lyrically but they literally fall short in every other category.
Production
Creativity
Impact
Lyrics
Longevity
Thee six has them beat in 4 of the 5 categories.

1) 36 Mafia had GREAT production, but they rap like 'everybody and their grandma can do it'...They don't sound like professional rappers...
2) Mobb Deep had GREAT production and a GREAT rapper (Prime Prodigy) and a good rapper...Havoc's delivery lacks but he raps on beat and he has dope lyrics, so I can tolerate him...
3) I even believe 36 Mafia had and still have BETTER production than Mobb Deep, but a beat is useless without a good rapper...I can't listen to that offbeat rapping...If you are not rhyming on the snare hit, you are offbeat to my ears or if your bars sound like if they are "hanging" like if the thought is incomplete...
4) Also, I liked 36 Mafia's rapping on "Most Famous Unknowns" but I love their beats on the earlier stuff when they didn't know how to rap...
5) Older 36 Mafia is like Cypress Hill to me, dope beats but I CANNOT stand the rapping...I have their discography, and I try to listen once in awhile, the music is great but the rapping ruins it for me...
6) Infamous and Hell On Earth are just perfect combinations of raps and beats...Probably the 2 best albums from New York hip hop...
@Yoda this thread is confusing. Are you asking who made better music? Or who had the moresubject matter?
Straight up, went harder.
mostly music, sometimes matter - i dont even know. i just realized in that other thread these 2 are similar.

Just my opinion...
I enjoyed the production on Infamous and Hell On Earth...After that, Prodigy started falling off...He wasn't even rhyming consistently, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't...Mobb Deep became hit or miss to me...
But early 36 Mafia is my type of beats...The rappers are not good though, so I can never fully enjoy their music...
36 Mafia have more songs too, and I don't think they have EVER produced a wack beat...By the numbers, they have better production and MORE variety...
"Stay High" "Half on a sack" "Who run it" and "Poppin my color" are recent 36 Mafia beats that I still hear in my head...
Mobb Deep hasn't had a banger since "Get away" in my opinion...
