Mobb Deep - The Infamous album cover | |||||||||||||||
The Infamous is Mobb Deep's breakthrough album. Perhaps one of the most influential hip hop albums of the East Coast hardcore rap genre. Embedded in hypervisual lyricism, dark soundscapes, and gritty narratives, it marked Mobb Deep's transition from a relatively unknown regional rap duo to an influential underground phenomenon.
The album's haunting style, defined by its evocative melodies, sullen rhymes, and rugged beats, reflected the dark side of New York City's urban landscape in a manner that garnered special recognition and critical praise. Furthermore, the album helped redefine the sound of the Hardcore rap genre with its atmospheric production style —which incorporated eerie piano loops, distorted synthesizers, and sparse bass-lines. The album also features several notable Mobb Deep songs, including "Survival of the Fittest", "Up North Trip", "Temperature's Rising", "Give Up The Goods (Just Step)", "Drink Away The Pain", and "Eye for an Eye" (featuring Nas and Raekwon). However, the focal point of the album is "Shook Ones Pt. II": a street anthem that has since become Mobb Deep's signature song.
