What's their classic album then?

I'd say that "Mystic Stylez" is a classic. It defined a sub-genre of Hip Hop that's usually pretty corny and it Sold quite well for who & what they were. With respect to Brotha Lynch

"Chapter 2 World Domination" is another one. Everything about that album is pretty tite. All of the way from the Concepts, Storytelling, to the Sound. Even the way they flipped all of those Samples was crazy.


But really its kind of a like a Landslide of Classic material overall. They were a huge group and they constantly put out new music all of the time from everybody that was involved.

If I put out the Albums I made built off of Classic material that each of them put out Individually in the same timeframe modeled after an actual group album - even with excluding Remixes and Features - then I could do more than just those two Easily. And it ain't difficult either, "anybody" could do it

36 stuff is horror movie evil but Mobb's stuff is shyt I just took a wrong turn onto a wrong block evil haha

came to go on a 3 6 rant but the first page alone

3 6 used to sample horror music and rap about shyt over it, come on now

edit: btw, if everytime yall make this type of thread (cause it happens alot) and it turns into a 3 6 mafia appreciation or 3 6 >>mobb deep thread..what does that tell you? i see the same nikkas come to these threads asking where's three 6 classics then balks when the thread gets 10 pages deep of nikkas telling you the classics. if 3 6 is "regional", mobb deep is "regional"..check the scoreboard on that

Exactly. Half the reason why their shyt sounds evil, is because of the "cheap" sound - like it was some cutting room floor of a snuff film.

The lo-fi mixing that Paul & Juice's beats had are what made them special and gave 3-6/HCP it's aesthetic. It fit the lyrics they rapped. If the mixes sounded completely clean and professional, it wouldn't have sounded as good. A few years ago, nikkas like SpaceGhostPurrp, Raider Klan, ASAP Mob ect. were trying to recreate that lo-fi sound. The fact that it sounds cheap but is still bumping is a testament to how good of producers DJ Paul & Juicy J are

I agree as far as the better mixing on Mobb deep stuff. But I don't think that takes away from the evilness... If anything it adds to it

Mystic style the song is literally sounds like serial killer music.

I here u....The same could be said about Beats By The Pound. TRU's song "There They Go" is a testament to exactly what u are speaking on..





But side by side...The polished product is always going to be superior. Mobb Deep rep that polished product that gave them that cinematic evil sound. Exorcist and Texas Chainsaw Massacre are both classics but as time has passed that polised look of the Exorcist gives it the edge over that cheap look of Texas Chainsaw even tho that cheap look adds to its overall impact.

Mobb Deep beats are more darker and cinematic

 

[NYC Rebel]

The Hell on Earth instrumental album could be a horror score.

That entire album is so dark.

Remember myself and a few of us gameplanning with the Late Big Kap to play "Still Shinin" at the Tunnel. Kap played, we went ape shyt and Flex told him afterwards to stop playing shyt like that cuz "we gott a pay insurance on the club!"

 

[Bed$tuy]

Too much of the same sounding hi-hats take away that dark cinematic feeling sometimes. South and drill music over do it and make it sound cheap. More Boom Bap drums and less hi-hat cymbals. A great beat maker knows how to use both moderately (Alchemist).

The mixing on their albums started to become alot more crisp around '98...Body Parts, Kaze, Indo G & Gangsta Boo albums....the Tear Da Club Up thugs album has the crispiest sound quality of any album i've heard til this day...playing that shyt on a high end amp/sub set up

have you in the whip like

 

[Rapmastermind]

Yes I co-sign this. Dame Grease should get a nod as well. Havoc makes those cinematic horrorfying sounding beats. Mobb is great to listen to in the winter, snowing, rainning, cold. And especially at night. This beat right here is so demonic, lol:

 

[eufemism]

Every beat on Doris was straight up demonic and suffocating


Listening to that album at night in the dark is definitely an experience
