Mobb Deep - The Infamous
"The Infamous" is the second studio album by hip hop duo MOBB DEEP, which was originally released in 1995.
It features NAS and WU-TANG members RAEKWON and GHOSTFACE KILLAH as guests. The album marked MOBB DEEP's transition from a relatively unknown rap duo to an influential and commercially successful act.
One of the milestones of the New York Hardcore movement, "The Infamous" is MOBB DEEP's masterpiece, a relentlessly minimalist song cycle held up by fans as one of the most real gangsta albums of all time.
This is hard hip hop from the underground, which has its own rules and has few melodic hooks as a gateway for the listener.
At the same time, MOBB DEEP provide little solace with the images of the street they conjure up here.
They inhabit a theater of war where violence and paranoia lurk around every corner.
The product of an unusual artistic vision, "The Infamous" is an absolute gangsta/hardcore classic.
