RIP to dude.
We all watched videos and listened to rap music growing up we all saw the yachts..private jets..100k cars..diamonds and platinum jewelry..let's be real..no inner city kids lived that life..we aspired to see that luxury one day and it motivated us to get money..but it wasn't our reality. Mobb deep came at it from our angle of life..the project benches..project staircases crossing rooftops getting chased by D's..the hoopties, the police,the chickenheads,the timbs, carharrt, Avirexes 40 inch chains, the cognacs and beer not Cristal. Beef guns knives, the drugs, corner stores, chicken spots, the after hours, club brawls going through other hoods and rival territory, the criminal courts, central booking,the island. Up north trips the inner city streets the shit kids in our age bracket grew up dealing with. The darkness of living in the hood. No rapper could bring it to you as vividly as Prodigy all while dropping hidden knowledge on us. Prodigy was one of a kind. Rest in paradise king..shoutouts to pshines aow for this quote
Still hurt
I didn't take him for granted. Everyday above ground is a blessing.RIP
-unfortunately a loss like this reminds you how great someone's impact actually was, and you may have taken for granted.
Real live my favorite rapper. The boy P will be missed
When I think of that grimy N.Y. sound I play a Mobb Deep or that Return of the Mack album.

It does remind you that you're only here for a moment.
