Mobb Deep often sounds like a guest at its own party.
-
Rolling StoneThe cash influx hasn't reformed these B-boys. [4 May 2006, p.57]
-
Not surprisingly, the resulting cameo-plugged record sounds more like a G-Unit album than an Infamous one.
-
UncutAt best this sees them hold their own. [Jul 2006, p.101]
-
If Mobb Deep didn’t have their own history, their own discography, and their own mythos, contributions from 50 and friends wouldn’t be a hindrance. But here, those contributions become intrusions that keep the Mobb from telling their own stories, flashing their own green, getting their own groupies.
-
The flashes of brilliance that were once routinely delivered by Havoc and Prodigy are few and fleeting here.
-
Too much of Blood Money represents something sad and fascinating-- two demons domesticated, two artists who have willfully transformed themselves into hucksters.
-
The duo's seventh album sees an invasion of unnecessary guest stars, such as Lloyd Banks and Yayo, and a disappointing lyrical turn that celebrates monotonous Detroit staples like guns, cash and bumps.
-
The album is a 60 minute blur, and while there are brief moments of clarity there's just nothing special about Blood Money.
