Ep.341 - Mobb Deep

At 21 years old, two rappers from Queens dropped one of the greatest albums in music history. But some forget that "The Infamous" wasn't Mobb Deep's beginning (Literally! It was their sophomore album!) and it certainly wasn't their end. So past the "capital C" Classic, what is Mobb Deep in totality?
