Albert Johnson, professionally known as Prodigy, was 1/2 of Mobb Deep along with Havoc. Together, they formed the best two man team in hip hop history in my opinion.
We pause to remember Bandana P on what would have been his 46th birthday.
What set Mobb Deep apart from other duos was the fact that Havoc is a rapper and producer. Over his incredible beats Prodigy spit some of the illest bars that have stood the test of time.
"The Learning (Burn)" featuring Big Noyd and Vita, "Quiet Storm" and it's remix featuring Lil Kim, "Shook Ones Pt. 2," "Survival of the Fittest," "Hell On Earth," "Win Or Lose," "Give Up the Goods (Just Step)," "It's Mine" featuring Nas, "Drop a Gem on Em," "The Realest" featuring Kool G. Rap, "Get Away," "Back At You," and "Crawlin" are just a handful of the Mobb's gems.
As a solo artist Prodigy gave us "Illuminati," "Keep It Thoro," "ABC," "Real Power Is People," "Return of the Mac," "Mac 10 Handle" and many other classics.
Happy birthday Prodigy. You will go down as one of greatest emcees in rap history.
