If you're my age (33) from the north east and ever spit a verse Prodigy influenced you somehow. Just being real. I think I learned about breaking up bars and flowing without having to rhyme from Prodigy and Redman. Keith Murray too.

I'm devastated. Mobb Deeps music raised me. Prodigy had the illest delivery and quotes ever. I was just listening to "it's alright " from the infamous bootlegs yesterday night and I was getting chills from prodigys verse on there and how he vividly painted a picture of NYC in the 90s. He was such a genius and wise beyond his years. I'm on mobile right now, but can somebody post that mobb deep song "if it's alright"? It feels like I lost a family member. Huge loss.

Rappers from the 90's need to stay away from Las Vegas.
SMH
R.I.P to the legend -

IMHO.. This is one of the best and most underrated songs by P.. Truly RIP to him...
@stringer bell
I haven't heard this in a while, but it's a damn good track! Great drop! -
I'm late as ? and I just found this out in the Cheap Seats a lil' about 2 hours ago. I been reading thru most of yall post and this ? is just crazy as hell 2 me!
I swear when I clicked on The Reason to confirm it and saw this thread, the FIRST thing I said to myself was "I'M STUCK OF THE REALNESS!!!".... b/c I really am. SMDH
BTW, 'Hell On Earth' is the one of the best hip hop albums of the Golden Era (obviously so is the 'Infamous', but that's by default)!
Rest In Power P -

Kinda feels like when ? passed away -

R.I.P.
Stop making posts like this just for reactions...not 1 damn person was propping up ? like Young Thug and Yachty over Prodigy and anything Mobb Deep has done. Acting like just because you don't proclaim somebody your favorite of all time all of a sudden they weren't fans of his music
oh rly? dont make me go dig for posts bruh. you know exactly what the ? Im talking about. ? and mind your business or get with it. I dont give any type of ? about a ? reaction, what I do care about is the ? mentality of "hip hop", "rap" whatever yall wanna call it "fans".
Yeah let's see the tons of post of people saying Young Thug is a better rapper than Prodigy -
At a loss for words. Rest in Power.

Bruh, ? damn near deja vu for me
10yrs ago at work my brother was like "you heard bout ? C?"
today at work he was like "you heard bout Prodigy?"
& I'm like man smh

I started rapping because of Prodigy. He was the first rapper that I patterned myself after. I don't flow anymore, and my rap style had changed drastically by the time I stopped, but just to know that someone that had such a profound impact on something you hold dear is gone is crazy, man.
He's finished with his Hell on Earth, but we're not. Rest in power.
Smh. This ? ? sucks, man. -
This was P's first industry recording/feature..."Too Young"
Prodigy and Tony Thompson (the singer) both died "Too Young".

Random as ? but my Auntie used to date one of those Kats I cannot remember which one. Small ass world...

P was one of the most if not the most sample voices in hip-hop. Hows that for impact.
