Mobb Deep makes the GOAT winter music. I legit can't listen to their shyt in the spring or summer.

Lead single with no chorus, no broad, straight lyrics daring the entire rap game to SEE HIM

My favorite P album. This CD stays in the car all the time.


Bars & Hooks intro
Genesis P dropping mad gems on this


Rock Dat - "I need that shyt to boost my adrenaline"


What U Rep :MobbDeep:
Keep it Thoro :smokingP: P don't need no chorus. Chris Lighty wanted to have Hav on it but it didn't work out:

A select few of people got to listen to this earlier... Summer of 99. Twin and Alchemist in Central Park listening to Keep it Thoro a year before release

Can't Complain this track is amazing


Infamous Minded - "you been blinded, cut on your face...."



Wanna Be Thugs :havoc2: This would've been the single at first


Three - P and Cormega killing it

H.N.I.C. :CaponeP: "My shyt bang kid"


Delt with the Bullshyt - another with :Hollywoodhav: "My shyt is classic and authentic"


Trials of Love - Putting his wife Kiki on the album :psmiley1:

Veteran's Memorial

Diamond
Mike Delorean is still waiting



Do It - :DemonicP: doing his thing
Littles skit


Y.B.E. - "Stash your first millions and live off the interest"

Gun Play - :ShadeP:
You Can Never Feel My Pain


This is a 5 Mic album :smokingP:

[WaveMolecules]

First album I discovered on my own.

My older cousin and friends from the block put me on to wu-tang, nas, mobb deep, etc...

But I went to Sam goody when this came out and copped on my own. I knew P from his mobb work so I figured this was dope. NYC in 2000 was the shyt

P is my favorite rapper ever.
I love and acknowledge NAS as the GOAT, but P will always be my favorite in my heart and mind, if that makes sense.

RIP P

Soul touching music.

You're crying cause you're broke from the projects :pwhitehat:
That's not pain :pdahell2:
That's emotion :prodigylol:
You a bytch :pdahellclean:
I'm talking bout permanent physical suffering :pdahell3:
You know nothing about that :pdisbelief:
You complain cause your stress :Pshades:
My pains in the flesh :Pgroot:
And through the years that pain became my friend. :pwhitehat2:
