Prodigy Genesis Appreciation thread...

HNIC started out like it was gonna be a classic with this banger. P bodied that beat.

P helps you seperate both the sides
Let the truth arise, black devil don't hide

 

[labelplant]

Fav song hnic.
I wish prodigy came more on some passionate, true to life, real shyt. Instead of all those science/conspiracy metaphors. The lyrics are still dope but just not as heartfelt as say "I break bread, ribs, hundred dollar bills" even. The beat just calls for something more emotional, even if P did it in his own monotone way.
Still 9.5/10 song.

 

[TrifeGod]

Also rumor was either Prodigy or Havoc made it.......no one really knows..

 

[FrankieLymon757]

aye no disrespect to the op..but these two freestyles sparked the Prodigy vs Jay beef aside from the Source comments P did....

 

[spliz]

Classic song thru n thru..from the beat to the rhymes..

 

[shopant]

Also rumor was either Prodigy or Havoc made it.......no one really knows..

the sample is ridiculous

 

[wilburn burchette]

the intro and this set that album off lovely. i put this album on sometimes and just let the intro rock on repeat.

 

[SirBiatch]

at @FreshAIG saying that Prodigy's rhymes were some of the most basic ever. These fukking mods

The pain and the hardship it took to build
Years of frustration, some got killed
Others fell vic' to the gates of steel
Most try to instill sanity still
Stuck on this rock where we don't belong
I wanna go home not sing this song
But I'm forced to perform speech napalm
Calm, surrounded by all types of harm
Dogg man fukk your screwface I watch hands

How in the fukk is this basic? Your average rapper cannot come up with shyt this poetic/vivid. "speech napalm?" are you fukking kidding me?

 

[Jimmy the gent]

"U can't hide from me/ u mite from the others/ I been employed to pull your ass out from the covers"
Dope shyt.
Album was a Fukin classic back then, could give a fuk what anyone says

 

[scorpino]

Another underrated gem was Power Rap from the QB album. Pee snapped on that too

5 star thread :psalute:

 

[1986]

One of my favorite opening tracks on any album. I don't appreciate this album enough...

 

[InfamousThoro]

Dope track indeed, Prodigy definitely produced it. Havoc or Alchemist would've taken credit for it! Don't forget Alchemist still had to build his career and Havoc always wanted credit for beats he produced after Hell on Earth. Jordan Tower (He also made the DVD Blood Thicker than Water for Infamous Mobb) shot a video for Genesis in 2013.
