All 3 of them are Queens rappers, so there is a huge east coast vibe in this. Product Of The 80's (with Big Twins & Un Pacino) (2008) - This is a compilation album between Prodigy, Big Twins, and Un Pacino.
Instead of the washed-out soul samples of his previous album, there is a lot of eerie drums and streaky, evocative synths. The production is mainly done by The Alchemist and Sid Roams with a couple songs produced by Apex or Havoc. He sounds really detached in this and the vocals sound like they are run through scratchy filters of some sort. During the album he sounds like he is tangled in confusion and the lyricism is just weird throughout the whole album. He spits about conspiracy theories and violence all while using a depressing, lazy flow. Prodigy was strange as ever at this point and was doing a lot of odd things at the time. Another interesting thing is that he happened to whip up a music video for every single song in the album. 2 (2008) - This is somewhat of a unique album, as Prodigy was looking at 3 years of prison time for gun possession while he was making it. Once again it's been awhile since I've heard it and I can't find much about it now, so I'm going off of memory here. 2 Advance Mixtape (2008) - Prodigy has been releasing mixtapes before each H.N.I.C. The Alchemist does all of the production on this album with the exception of help from DJ Muro on two of the songs. People were thinking that Prodigy fell off, but this album gave fans hope for H.N.I.C. Return Of The Mac (with The Alchemist) (2007) - This was an unexpectedly good collaborative album with The Alchemist. It's a pretty good mixtape with a darker feel, but nothing seriously special here. The Alchemist does some production on this as well as Prodigy, but he also has production from Bink Dawg, Hangmen 3, Robert Kirkland, Havoc, Ez Elpee, Rockwilder, Nashiem Myrick, Stephen Dorsain, Just Blaze, and Ric Rude on the album.Ĭlosed Session (with Illa Ghee) (2005) - This is a collaborative mixtape he did with Illa Ghee. Most of the songs have an excellent mixture of the commercialized sound of newer Mobb Deep and the bleak sound of older Mobb Deep. The most noticeable and best feature of H.N.I.C. (2000) - This is his debut solo album and his most successful album. I heard it a long time ago and it was pretty good, but I can't find anything about it anymore. 1 Mixtape (2000) - He released this with DJ Whoo Kid before his first album.
