Ny Mobb Deep Intervju (VIBE Magazine)
Ny Intervju med Mobb Deep om G Unit-signingen etc. i VIBE Magazine.
Intressant läsning.
Grabbarna framstår som riktiga jävla flöjtar. Slickar 50 av bara fan och skiter på Nas, Littles och Game och framstår som i det stora hela som en duo riktiga fuckups .
De verkar inte direkt vara sina egna längre utan snarare pinsamt nöjda med att bli två signade popartister i nån annans ledband.
Slutet på Mobb Deeps era inom hiphop?

Your signing to G Unit seemed to catch everyone off guard. How did that happen?
Prodigy: 50 Cent heard that we were free agents. He called Hav like, "Yo, what's up? I'm fu*king with y'all. Let's do it."
After seven albums being self-contained, by joining G Unit are you admitting that maybe, your way wasn't working anymore?
Havoc: Nah, not at all. The way we were doing it always worked. It was just the record companies were fu*king up. Now we have a better platform.
50 recently said he's picking all the beats for your upcoming album. Is that true?
H: He sends beats to us. If we don't like it, we always got our opinions. But he's got such a good ear that every track he picks is right, so it's all good. I'm still producing somewhere close to half the album.
Did you sign an artist deal?
H: Nah, not like a regular deal. We got a lot of perks. We got more points than any artist ever got to this day, so it's a real good deal.
Perks? Give me a few examples of these perks.
P: We got Porsches.
H: Top of the line. I got a GT3 that's nonrecoupable.
So, I guess it didn't bother you that on "Piggy Bank" 50 said to Jadakiss, "I'll do your little ass like Jay did Mobb Deep?"
H: Nope
P: When he said that line, he was just talking about what really happenned. At Summer Jam, Jay-Z put up a picture of me when I was a little kid in my grandmother's dance school. We're all bigger than Jay now.
Similar to Ja Rule's R.U.L.E., Amerikaz Nightmare had it's fans, but it didn't achieve commercial success. Were you worried that your time might hav passed?
H: The difference with Ja Rule is people were tired of him. We came out with a good record, but the record wasn't getting it to the fans.
Speaking of Ja Rule, 50 is known for his beefs. Will it be a problem for you to work with people he's beefing with?
H: I'm a producer, bottom line. Nobody can tell me what I can and can't do as far as me being creative. And 50 is not even like that at all. But, I will say that I'm down for my team, and I ain't trying to start no friction.
