"Queens nikkas don't play, do your thing, I'll do mine kid, stay out of my way"

[FreshAIG]

The more and more the Infamous is creeping into my top 3 rap albums of all-time. Right behind Illmatic and Death Certificate.

Giving Up the Goods captures NY in the mid 90s better than any song I think.

Those bars where P is trying to tell the kids about Crime doesn't pay and they look at him like " Queens nikkas don't play, do your thing, I'll do mine kid, stay out of my way" are so classic to me.

That "I'ma do anything to get paid" mentality was so real back then.

The replay value on this album is incredible. I can still listen to it from front to back 21 years later. PS. Damn I'm getting old.

"Everybody's Foul" (c) Ja Rule

Yeah that was just that era. That shyt was a lot of fun, but everybody was foul & petty.
Just having strings on your Jansport meant you had to watch your back. Nyggas coming back to school in the fall with fresh gear AND fresh scars. All this Iphone & Dre beats on the train dolo business wouldn't fly back then *shakes cane*.

Po po comes around and tries to relocate me
Lock me up forever but they can't deflate me cause
Havin' cash is highly addictive
Especially when you're used to havin' money to live with

[mobbinfms]

Give up the Goods is my favorite Mobb Deep record.

I was too young to go out in the early to mid 90s
But this video makes it look
Wearing whtaever the fukk you want
No VIP
Buying bottles of champagne at the bar and walking around with them (I did catch a little bit of that towards the late 90s and early 2000s)
shyt didn't even look that crowded
Girls dancing to Mobb Deep
Random people in the club going on to drop classic LPs (Capone and Nore)
Girls fighting in the bathroom
Getting robbed in the bathroom though?
