I always thought this LP was solid. Most definitely "The Infamous" LP is a classic. But I enjoy Murda Muzik as much, or more. Classic shit IMO!
Thoughts.........

yeah mobb deep always comes tight

I actually think "Murda Muzik" was where Mobb Deep started going downhill. It was still a pretty good album, but by that point, Mobb Deep was more interested in crossing over than making great music, and it showed. "Quiet Storm" and "It's Mine" are two of their best singles ever, and the album had some other great tracks, but overall, it was a more mainstream-friendly sound. Unlike the stripped-down, bleak production of "The Infamous" and the opera sample-driven cinematic sound of "Hell On Earth" - those two albums were just too close to hardcore rap perfection. For them to put out albums like that and then decide they wanted to join the pop-thug movement of the late-90s' just felt like a letdown.
-
Mobb Deep's first three albums are incredible.
The Infamous (5/5)
Hell On Earth (5/5)
Murda Muzik (4.5/5)
I think after that they fell off hard and now that they are with G-Unit there is no going back. They still make good music but it won't be on the same level as those first three.

you read that 50 interview where he says Blood Money is going to sell as much as Get Rich or Die Tryin?
seriously, how many units can they move?

I only count major label debuts to be their first album. Juvenile Hell was indie. Similar to how I don't count Power Of The Dollar as 50's debut since it was never released or Infinite as Em's debut or Incognegro as Luda's debut, Faces Of Death for Bone Thugs, etc.

Yup pretty dope, better than Infamy and Amerikaz Nightmare IMHO

You a youngsta. Mobb Deep had two singles/videos for Juvenile Hell. I first heard of them dudes from that LP. Large Professor produced tracks from that album, and they had a buzz back then.

Infamous is most def. a classic...its been like 5 years since I first heard it and its still in my main rotations playa..
-
This album got 4.5 mics, I got all the issues of THE SOURCE around that time. If it got 4 mics then I got a different issue somehow.
The Infamous... was thier second album.

well thanks for clearin it up
i thought 4th and broadway was an indie.. didnt know it was america recording as well
i dled the album so dont really know what the real label was but always figured 4th and broadway was indie
-
yah u know when someone relases half indie/major label album, its still on the small label but distributed widley by there distributor ie universal, sony or other major ones
its a dope album though, stomp em out, project hallways, hit it from the back, peer pressure where dope songs, just not as hardcore and grimey as infamous
-
Aight, time for a little hate. I didn't think Murda Muzik is on par with what Mobb Deep did before that; they were getting a little washed up. The real hardcore sound they had with Infamous was fading away. It's impossible for me to ever appreciate Murda Muzik as much as I appreciate The Infamous. Hell on earth was hella good too though, just not as good as The Infamous. That's what most artists get... They peak early in their careers and they will be forever reminded of how they never managed to hit the same level again. Don't get me wrong, Murda Muzik is cool and all that... It just lacks greatness.
