Mobb Deep - Conquer
Artist: Mobb Deep
Producer: Havoc
Album: Black Cocaine EP
Label: Infamous Records
Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, Attila the Hun, Napoleon Bonaparte, Havoc and Prodigy of Mobb Deep... yep, sounds about right to me. On the latest single off their forthcoming EP, the NYC underground mainstays announce their intention to Conquer the game and everyone in it, not stopping till every competitor has ”overpower[ed] and crush[ed].” Havoc sets an appropriately ominous mood on the production tip, layering martial brass samples and choral backing vocals over a driving percussion rhythm. Needless to say, he and his partner-in-rhyme come with aggressive bars to match, touting the ruthless efficiency of their team and warning those who would delve too deeply into their business, “Get curious, I’ll show you how the reaper look.” And, like all historical conquerors worth their salt, they’ve accumulated a sizable harem—on the back, Prodigy boasts of being a “bad hood b*tch magnet.” Does this hard-hitting single leave you fiending for more? Then be sure to pick up the duo’s Black Cocaine EP when it drops November 21—or, click here to pre-order the project on iTunes.

This has to be my favorite release yet from the forthcoming EP. Havoc has his anthemic production hat on and Prodigy - for the first time since he has been out of prison - appears to have come alive on the mic.

Mobb Deep delivered some hard verses on this track and Havoc's production is close to flawless...

It takes a lot to be a conquerer in this game, and a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and this is a good first step.
