Reviews Customer Reviews for Blood Money Is this Mobb Deep? Rating: This album was just not the sound I was expecting from Mobb Deep even if they did sign with G-Unit. I miss that Infamous, Hell on Earth sound. I guess its gone forever. I know you can't duplicate an album like "The Infamous" but did it have to come to this? I wasn't expecting another "Infamous" or "Hell on Earth" but I wasn't expecting this either. I'm starting to think it's true what people have been saying for a while, that since Jay-Z took a shot at Mobb Deep they've lost their fire. The only songs on this album that really stood out to me were Put Em In Their Place, Speakin' So Freely and Click Click Click. The rest were average to garbage. I've been a Mobb Deep fan since "The Infamous" album and I own almost everything by Mobb Deep. I actually had high hopes for this album after hearing the J-Love "Mobb Misses Vol. 4" mixtape. That whole mixtape was classic, raw, dark, grimey Mobb Deep. This album is commercialized, weak and production is sub-par. This album is not on par with older Mobb Deep albums and if this is the direction that they're going I guess I'll just have to enjoy their old stuff. If you're an old school Mobb Deep fan save your money and buy the "Infamous Archives" double cd instead. It has classic previously unreleased tracks with Havoc's signature sound and P's original flow. Most of them you might have heard on old mixtapes. At least it's the classic Mobb Deep you'll always remember. You won't be dissappointed with it. Peace.
Customer Reviews for Blood Money Cd Mobb deep been fell off since murda muzik... Fake nu ggaz! Rating: Mobb deep's "blood money" pretty much is wack as far as production goes and lirycaly its trash...Mobb sleep is tired and they do not care about the music, i quess. Ever since they second release "the infamous" which was a classic and third release "hell on earth" both classics back then. I thought these dudez were real but now i see its all bullsh*t. Gay unit and 50 is ruining hip hop and rap. It is a sad day for the true fans of the music.Its been sad and depressing for a while with every one selling out.We still got people who are trying to keep it alove which if good! Mosdef is one of them. Peace out!
Editorial Reviews for Blood Money Audio Cd Amazon.com After getting signed to G-Unit, the veteran Queensbridge duo of Prodigy and Havoc bragged that they were now "superstars." Maybe not yet lil soldiers, but Blood Money is still a marked improvement over the last few MD albums. Hav and P sound surprisingly good meshing their laconically menacing style with G-Unit's hook-heavy production. If they really want triple-platinum sales, they need more songs like the infectious "Outta Control" or the pre-fab-club hit "Have a Party," but the Mobb weren't made to cut "Candy Shop" clones. They work better with the dark, sinister stylings of "The Infamous" (a nod to their 1994 album of the same name) or the funky loops on "Put Em In Their Place." For all the murda music--"Click, Click," "Creep"--there are some unexpected departures, like the blasphemously philosophical "Pearly Gates" and the smooth, mellow "It's Alright." 50 Cent fans should be happy to hear him on six of the songs, with the rest of the G-Unit making obligatory single guest spots. --Oliver Wang
