With Mobb Deep on hiatus and no prospect of reconciliation on the horizon, lets reflect on better times. The Infamous is every bit an essential hip-hop album as Paid in Full and The Chronic are. Cited by many as the best produced hardcore hip-hop album ever, Havoc's production evokes a keen sense of eeriness that succinctly defines the atmosphere of the hectic streets of New York during the mid 90s. Although Prodigy would fall off later on in his career after the now infamous summer jam screening of him in a strange Michael Jackson outfit, as well as the string of knockouts he's succumbed to, in his prime, there were very few rappers able to compete with him; and if you don't believe me, just ask the numerous artists who've sampled Prodigy's voice, even those who've had misunderstandings with the man.
