Mobb Deep -

Mobb Deep are one of the most successful hardcore rap acts ever, yet also one of the most uncompromising. Their lyrics paint a harshly realistic picture of New York street life, backed up by a distinctive production style that's haunting and hard-hitting in equal measure. Since their second album 'The Infamous' went gold they've been selling a lot of records, with 1999's 'Murda Muzik' going platinum. The sales seem unlikely to let up, and neither does Mobb Deep's commitment to the music they believe in.
