Mobb Deep-Infinite (Coming 10/10) Official Thread

[Jards]

We The Real Thing might be my favourite track - beat and hook is that late 90s/early 2000 era Mobb

Should’ve been mid-album - album is dope but I’m pissed I’ve gotta wait to the last track to hear it

I mean the work’s already done so there’s definitely a possibility that they all drop before the end of the year. Alchemist says a lot of stuff on Twitter though - his Twitter fingers are worse than Meek Mills lol

If the Erykah album does come out, it would most likely be towards the end of the year as the Hit Boy album (which he’s currently doing media for) is out on the 24th and then Armand Hammer is out November 7th. Plus Erykah is touring now until early December and Alchemist will be touring with Premo from mid November to the end of December, so I personally don’t think it would be something that they just throw out there, especially as it’s her first album for 15 years as said - they would only have like the last week of the year to promote and do media for it. And as someone else said, there’s a possibility that he’s also got projects dropping with Conway and Boldy.

How he juggles all this is absolute insanity though - I don’t think there’s been one month this year where he’s not been promoting or touring a new project - dude’s home life must be the real life version of the Grandpa Simpson hat/door gif looool

It’s also probably been noted in another thread at some point but we’re really getting back to the era of one producer per album which is significantly improving the quality of the product, due to the cohesiveness and clarity of the vision. I know this is two producers but Havoc and Alchemist are very locked in with each other as to what the Mobb Deep sound is.

It’s been a thing with the underground rappers for a while (Spitta, Larry, etc have been doing that for a minute) but it’s good to see the legends taking it back to that essence as well. Off top, Clipse, Mobb, Freddie Gibbs, Larry June (x2), Roc Marci, WTK have dropped some of the better projects this year using this formula - shyt even last year the Metro and Future projects were up there as some of the best of 2024 and Curren$y and Fresh dropped a near classic with the Tonite Show sequel. I think Nas and Premo got a classic in the tuck which is why they’re last in the rollout - that first single was underwhelming but I think they’re gonna come back strong based on the feedback which is why they’ve taken so long.

fukk with this album heavy + the new Bia

 

[SonnyDecay]

the album is crazy, I didnt expect Havoc beats to be this fire in 2025

 

[mobbinfms]

Record is insane. ALC really took it back.
Listening to this it got me thinking about a lot of their first records. They were on Black Moon's debut and I think in the liner note shout outs they were acting like they were tight. But after this they completely disassociate. They never dissed each other but never even worked together again. It was strange, I spent the 90s waiting for another collaboration. lol

That was just Hav. Then Hav was on the second OGC album if im not mistaken.

good look, I’ll check it out

 

[Sound (∀√a) Maths]

theres 1 track with HER. and it was dope

Grammatical error, I meant the H.E.R. version wasn't needed as it was basically the same song as the Jorja one.

 

[Figaro]

i feel like Havoc captured every type of sound they created from Infamous to Blood Money on this.

 

[Alejandro Sosa]

Listening to Prodigy is so soothing.

He always will be the perfect rapper.

One of the few rappers that the older I get, the more I appreciate, glad to see this album being so well received

 

[Ziggiy]

They should've had a eulogy track with Hav, Noyd, and Infamous Mobb honoring P.

I disagree but I get the sentiment

Am I mistaken or did Nas and Hit help start this trend? Ironically Illmatic is generally considered to have started the opposite trend of trying to get all the hot producers for your album.

Define My Name wasn’t meant to be the first single from the new album, it was meant to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Illmatic.

Alfredo II =/= Infinite
Clipse
Killah Priest - Abraxes II
Ghost - SCII

Honourable mentions: Xzibit, Daz (RRGBII), Roc Marci

People need to hear this album. Between Abraxas 2 and infinite I’m right now

For the legends, most possibly….Curren$y been running that play since he linked up with ALC in 2011.

Funnily enough, Prodigy had a couple of those in like 07,08 with Return of the Mac with Al and Product of the 80s with Sid Roams (although Jake One picked up a couple of tracks on the production)….
