Disco de Mobb Deep: “Blood Money [Edited]”

like any east coast rap fan mob deep is deff a part of my cd collection. from the infamous to americas nightmare. although i lost some respect when they started beefin with nas. but if ur a tru rap fan u will always hold respect for mobb deep. and its because of those rugged grimy lyrics and non comercial sound. i mean who could possible listen to shook ones and say they wernt feelin that track. it is tru after jigga dissed them it seems it took their game down a notch. but they still continued to rap with substance. i will continue to be a fan of the pre g-unit mobb deep.

now to the part that hurts me. im not dissin 50 im just stating the facts. the fact is this is no were even close to what mobb deep is all about. and i no it is part their fualt but they are rappin bout money ice and hoes. this is def 50 leadin them in the direction to make money and b comercial. the problem is the mobb cnt b comercial. they never tryed and thats y they were sick. but 50 cent is now puttin a very bad end to a great career. he is on almost every track i could have sworn havoc and prodigy were the only to member of the group. but i guess under g-unit 50 wants to be in mobb deep 2 more then half the tracks are about how g-unit gets all the groppies. and yes mobb deep is rappin about screwin chicks. hey it hurts me to say it. there are flashes of the old mobb the inafmous mobb. there is only on song produced by the alcamist and it is tight. i mean u sign him to g unit y not use him. i veiwed this cd as a chance for 50 cent to gain some respect back in the real rap game. i mean he had a blue print to make a classic raw mobb deep cd. he could have had the alchamist on every other track put m.o.p. on like 2 or 3 tracks. have buck rappin about killin ppl instead of bangin hoes and 50 himself could have not been on the album or like one or 2 tracks. then most importantly told mobb deep to rap like they used to.

its def sad to see 2 veterains in the rap game look like the new york version of ying yang twins. well dnt buy this cd download the 4 or 5 hot tracks the rest is trash. R.I.P. Mobb Deep

I am a Mobb Deep fan since Juvenile Hell, but they been G-Euniched. In Blood Money, the first mistake was having their executive producer being "50 Cents" instead of themselves or at least the Alchemist, which was the joint producer of Eminem's Re-Up CD. From beginning to the end, you hear "G-Unit" instead of "The Infamous" which shown them being completely sold out from their own foundation. Of their songs on the CD, the best beat goes to "Pearly Gates". Interesting enough, the CD has the edited version of the song because Prodigy says alot of offensive things about Jesus Christ in the original version. Other decent songs are songs that been on other CDs. But this is a G-Unit CD and if you love G-Unit, then you would love this one. But being a Mobb Deep fan, they completely lost their identity.

I enjoyed maybe two tracks off of this entire album...the production was lacking and it just diddnt seem like the mobb...and wheres the single? put em in they place? bad choice obviously because i dont think anybody has heard it on the radio or seen it on TV...this album was pretty weak i expected quite abit more from the infamous Mobb... : /

so at first i also figured that mobb deep goin over to 50's label would be a good thing for them...but apparently i was wrong. comparin this album to their older ones, mobb is definitly 10x stronger on the old ones -- just like almost everyone is sayin. they do have a couple decently good songs on the album, but thats it, just a couple.

if mobb wants their money, they got it, and they'll keep gettin it -- but if they want to keep their respect and quality albums goin...well, this direction so far hasnt taken them there.

50 is a nice rapper, ill give him that, but he as well is slowly goin downhill and ruinin too many talented rappers along the way. g-unit was quite fine with just 50, lloyd banks, young buck (the man), and yayo (actually, forget yayo, g-unit was better when dude was in jail), but now it seems like theres too much goin on to make quality g-unit albums.

underground mobb deep is where it is at -- remember that

yo, how could dey sell out to a puss like 50, this is pure crap, who kid, 50, g unit, there all just pothetic, right as i write this review im wearin a GUNOT t, Mobb deep needs to do themselves a favor and go get signed to Game, this album just shows wat 50 will do to a pure great like mobb deep, im was listen to Cradle to the grave, and eye for an eye, for all those who don't remember, that was on there INFAMOUS, Infamous album, do yourself a favor and pick that one up
