The Infamous

Gunnar

**💭 Thoughts:** Coming from Queens, New York, rap duo Mobb Deep gives us their 1995 sophomore LP *The Infamous*, containing some of what I believe to be the rawest and strongest rapping of any rap album ever. They deliver on every front—from the production and lyricism to the flows and features. On top of that, I absolutely love the bass lines, being one of the many standout features of this album. Easily top 10 hip-hop albums of all time, and most certainly deserving of classic status. **❤️ Loved track(s):** - The Start of Your Ending (41st Side) - Survival of the Fittest - Eye for a Eye - Give Up the Goods (Just Step) - Trife Life - Q.U. - Hectic - Right Back at You - Cradle to the Grave - Drink Away the Pain - Shook Ones, Pt. II - Party Over **👍 Liked track(s):** - (The Infamous Prelude) - (Just Step Prelude) - Temperature’s Rising - Up North Trip - (The Grave Prelude) **🫤 Mixed track(s):** None **👎 Disliked track(s):** None **🚫 Hated track(s):** None ———————————————————————— **🏅 My Ranking Scale:** 10 = Perfect 9 = Exceptional 8 = Great 7 = Good 6 = Decent 5 = Average 4 = Below Average 3 = Poor 2 = Bad 1 = Awful 0 = Unlistenable

This is up there with the best rap albums I’ve ever heard. The rap duo of Prodigy & Havoc go absolutely insane on this album and deliver an absolute classic. No melodies, no singing, no extras just hard, boom bap, old school, east coast rap from beginning to end. Top songs are ‘Survival Of The Fittest’ ‘Give Up The Good (Just Step)’ ft Big Noyd ‘Temperature’s Rising’ ft Crystal Johnson ‘Trife Life’ ‘Q.U. - Hectic’ ‘Shook Ones, Pt. II’ ‘Cradle To The Grave’
