Infamy has aged pretty well imo, at the time it was shocking to hear P like that - and it's clearly not his most creative/energetic performance on a Mob album (probably his worst). Havoc steps up though.

When you check his solo/Alc work around that time and in the years to come, it's also clearly a chemistry thing and a lack of faith in Havoc/Mobb Deep that led to P phoning some of it in. Kind of goes back to the Cormega discussion of yesterday.

I just finished revisiting that album and man I forgot how many bangers that album had. Hav definitely steps up and holds it down on both ends, plus Scott Storch, Alc, and Elpee complimented the Mobb sound with their contributions.

I had an old XXL mag too around Infamy where P says he was dealing with very bad sickle cell flare ups during most of the infamy sessions and that he was very sick for much of it

I can see why Burn is Alchemist favorite Havoc beat, such a complete beat from top to bottom

Twin and Ev surprisingly had good chemistry. I always hoped Twin and Alc would make an album together, feels like that moments passed along time ago though.

I wanted a Twin/Alc project too. Still kinda do. Twin seems like a good friend. They post a lot of pics and seem like they hang out a lot. Surely Twin could try and pull that favor card if he really wanted some stuff, but it seems like he doesn’t, for whatever reason

This is what bothers me about a lot of music fans. An album doesn't have to be a classic for it to still be a solid album. Yes, it's a step down from the prior three but there's still a lot to like about it. But I guess some people only want to listen to the classics and that's fine I guess.

I just find the majority of the album generic as hell, P is at his worst on the mic and alot of the beats lack the grittyness that Hav was known for. It has nothing to do with it not being a classic. "Free Agents" is a great fukking album and noone is calling that classic.

There are definitely some absolute highs as I mentioned earlier, "Get Away" is one of my favourite Mobb songs. But I prefer listening to Blood Money over this album.

This was my favourite from the bonus disk. I remember copping that free agents shyt for extortionate money in hmv... It was actually the most value for money Cd I ever bought.

Many nights walked home from school in the rain with my Walkman in my blazer pocket listening to this joint

Yo my man, this is exactly how i got into the mobb . I couldn't afford the CD in HMV, security peeped me tryna steal it. So i walked out, went to the vinyl shop and the guy was like "man start here", hands me the infamous

the rest is history...

That's the exact reason (why they haven't) right there.

I agree
