"Hip Hop has never been the same since '88. Since it became a lucrative profession, it's a misconception that movement in any direction is progression"

I've recently become a bit obsessed with Mobb Deep! There newer stuff is garbage but I've been remonising on The Infamous and Hell On Earth. Here are some images I've picked up along the way, hope you like!
"I'm only nineteen, but my mind is older...."
"Cuz now you bump heads with kids thats lifeless!"
Check out GZA's classic video for "Cold World"
"Who am I? The incorrigible lyrical miracle is horrible yet hysterical the way I'll embarass you"
My Star Scale:
= A classic album or book or certainly a must buy!
= A very good album or book that isn't jaw dropping but well worth having in your collection.
=Basically average. It's not terrible, but you could skip it and still have dignity.
=Ermmm this product is simply "Yuck". Stay away even if you are a fan normally of the author or artist.
=Destroyable! Kick this as hard as if you had heard that 50 Cent was doing a duet with Talib Kweli!
