Prodigy and Havoc have been in many conflicts with other rappers throughout the years. Whether it's been Tupac Shakur, Jay-Z or Saigon, Mobb Deep has never shied away from a battle. During a very candid interview with Hot 97's Peter Rosenberg, Illuminati P breaks down why the group has always been ready to address all drama at a moment's notice.
PR: It's almost an honor that you had your sh*t with Pac. I'm just curious, all these years later Pac's gone, he's basically a God in hip hop and he talked crazy sh*t about y'all. How does it feel being a dude who was the subject of beef with this dude who is considered an all time great?
Prodigy: At that time we didn't care who he was, or what he did, or he with--none of that. We was just holding our crew. Holding down our team, holding down our state, out borough. And we was willing to die for that. As stupid as that may sound, we was willing to die over rap music. We was putting our life on the line. At that time we was doing shows in L.A. and all that. That's why I went so hard at Jay-Z when he said that line in a song because he wasn't around for none of that. Pac was going at him too. Nas, Jay. Mobb Deep, Biggie. So, Biggie and Mobb Deep was holding it down we wasn't playing, we was ready to die for that. Get locked up whatever, get shot...because that'e the mentality we had at that time. Thank God we made it out of that and it's sad that Pac didn't and Biggie didn't.
So, when Jay-Z started saying all that crazy stuff [like] he held New York down and 'New York been soft ever since Snoop came through and crushed the buildings.' I took that very personal and I said what I had to say about him. I called him a b*tch basically for saying that. He was a b*tch for saying that 'cause he waited 'til everything had died down, he waited until people got murdered...waited 'til everything was over with then come out and said that like he did something.
P goes on to talk about how getting in shape has helped him deal with sickle cell, his book My Infamous Life: The Autobiography of Mobb Deep's Prodigy and a lot more.

Chris Brown has barely settled into his new $1.5 million dollar bachelor pad and already his new neighbors are looking for a reason to give him a hard time.
Brown bought the new home in Hollywood Hills, California recently after moving out of his West Hollywood condo following complaints from neighbors about his entourage and loud lifestyle. Now, his new neighbors are threatening to call the cops if they spot any trouble.
“A few of us are nervous about what is going to happen, given Brown’s track record,” one resident told The Daily. "This is a very peaceful street. We’ve never had any trouble here … we won’t hesitate to call the police if things get out of hand.”
MTV is reporting that Brown's new crib is just eight miles from where his ex-girlfriend Rihanna lives, but that is only temporary because Riri recently put her eight-bedroom Beverly Crest home on the market for $4.5 million.
Brown's new three bedroom home is 2500 square feet and features it's own elevator, as well as a pool and two car garage.
Take a tour of Breezy's new crib below.

T.I.'s new album Trouble Man is going to be blessed with a special unreleased verse from late UGK rapper Pimp C, according to producer Caviar.
Pimp C recorded the verse specifically for T.I. shortly before he passed away in December 2007.
“I have a song on T.I.'s new album featuring Pimp C, which is one of his last verses that he did before he passed away," Caviar told VIBE. "So Tip was sitting on it, but he got caught up and went to jail. But he told me 'Yo Cavie, keep that sh*t on ice and we rolling with it. Like when I get out it's gonna be on the album.'"
Caviar
Tip was a big UGK fan. Shortly after Pimp C's passing he told MTV that he was "an honorary UGK alumnus for life." The trio had the chance to collaborate in 2006 when T.I. remade UGK's classic song "Front, Back & Side to Side" for his King album.
'Trouble Man' will be released in early 2012.

Pure heat off of Jon's forthcoming mixtape Season 2, dropping December 12.
Russell Simmons is doing what he can to contribute to the Occupy Wall Street movement.
In a recent interview with Billboard.biz, the business mogul says he's been in talks with artists who will be recording OWS inspired songs.
"There's a lot of music coming. I don't want to say who until they're dropping these bombs," he said. "These are artists I'm aware of that I pushed to do it, supported their efforts to do it, told them why it was important, briefed them on the demands of the protestors. There'll be a protest song that goes with Occupy Wall Street. I promise you that. Me and you, promise."
Simmons added that there is also an OWS concert also in the works.
"We are definitely discussing it. We're definitely working for permits. We're definitely looking to make a huge impact. We're actively working for permits. We'll have one in our hands soon."
Good to see Uncle Rush lending a hand.
