Mobb Deep - Blood Money Appreciation thread

[blankstairz]

Man I remember nikkas were going crazy when Prodigy got a G-Unit tattoo

OG Mobb fans in pure disgust

As someone who grew up on G-Unit I loved the music they were making cause I was big Prodigy fan too. Good times

Remember, they probably felt 50 kinda threw shade on Mobb on the Piggy Bank record. With the " like Jay did Mobb Deep" line. Not a direct shot, but still...they didn't care.

And at this time, 50 was hated in general...the villain. People weren't having it. Putting that all together,then to see the Mobb join G-Unit....Mobb fans were heated.

some of those beats were pretty cool, but they didnt come lyrically on that album at all

whats that prodigy verse? "whats my name, bandana P, LMNOP"

Put Em In They Place

The Infamous
Stole Something
Click Click
Pearly Gates
Capital H, Capital P
Have A Party
It's Alright
Outta Control Remix
Smoke it
Speaking So Freely

All bangers......the album got unfairly criticized because it was put out on G Unit. I had bought a burned copy from my homie at school and stayed in rotation throughout the year.

Yeah there was a couple of duds on there and Prodigy was a shell of his former self but Havoc took over and did his thing.

This was a better album than Infamy and Amerikas Nightmare imo.

lmaooo el em el oh P.. that bar had me


but nah this album was dope to me.. maybe cos I was 15 and thought I was a g-unit soldier

"Backstage Pass" and "Give It To Me" were the only weak songs in my opinion.

I pulled this CD back out a couple of months ago and played the shyt like 6 times.

The albums bangs. Might have been slightly polished for the vintage Mobb fam but it was definitely better than Infamy and Amerikaz Nightmare.

"Click Click" was . Yayo bodied that shyt.

This Alchemist beat with Yayo should have made it

Solid album.

P's atheist verse on Pearly Gates was

habitual line-stepper even Curtis admitted that when he heard the verse he was like

I thought that verse was hard as hell when I first heard it

Capital H, A-V-O-C, H class diamonds, H-S-B-C
H killin' all these producers with his beats
Back seat of the H-3 with your H-O-E

 

[Dead End]

Didn't hate this, but didn't care for it either. Probably the worse Mobb Deep album, although I suppose Infamy was a bigger disappointment.

 

[Kal-El]

Album was straight

Only good thing about the album was Havs flow

 

[Calmye]

Dope ass album. Only reason it got hate was it was gunit

 

[WuGambino]

I tried to give this a fair listen a while back but everytime Mobb or 50 screamed g unit i was. I'm glad this was a one and done deal Hav and P knew this shyt was trash.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

Mobb dropped a mixtape on G Unit too

[WSFGDan]
