    The only weak point of P's career was that ? awful garbage ass amerikkkas nightmare. infamy was average in a worst case scenario and thats because of that ? ass 112 track. other than these blemishes P has been one of the most consistant, hard working MC's IMO. P/IMD have been releasing NEW music every year whether by commerical album or mixtape joints for the past 16 years. His voice and original flow is what your favorite rapper wishes they had. P is the ? that made it cool to make non rhyming words work, a technique than Eminem and Lil Wayne still practice to this day. Havoc and P been preaching self sufficency since they were kids. They produce their own albums, create their own sounds, proceed with their own vibe. I never heard anyone sound like Mobb Deep before they existed and i havent heard anyone come close to even competing with the trademark mobb sound. They have never been afraid to share the spot light or help fellow artists come up. I wouldnt never heard or been interested in Iman Thug, Tragedy, CNN, QBC, Infamous Mobb, Cormega, Mike Delorean, Illa Gee, Alchemist if it wasnt for mobb deep.

    Infamy was a good album. I remember my boy D used to call me up just so i could play him "Get At Me" over the phone back in '01. He went and bought the album ASAP and been crankin it ever since. Cat was a ? Jay-Z fan/Mobb Deep hater, but he loved that track.

    i say that cause big only had two albums out in those times so he has more material i go off of rather than saying he was better than big but he still was up there. and as far as wu on some real ? if u only count the wu as a group album i think he got em. now if u wanna take it to individual albums they mite edge him out

    So because he didn't spit muti's....nvm you got it. I'm not that big of a Prodigy advocate to point out those weak attempts to discredit the man.
