Mobb Deep in Calgary

Mobb Deep were an American hip-hop duo formed in Queens, New York, in 1990 by rappers and producers Havoc and Prodigy. Their hard-edged East Coast rap is represented by the albums The Infamous, Hell on Earth and Murda Muzik, as well as the songs “Shook Ones, Pt. II” and “Survival of the Fittest.” In 2011, Mobb Deep toured clubs and theatres performing their 1995 album in full, then reunited for an anniversary tour in 2013 and mounted a North American tour the following year. A 2015 run marked the record’s twentieth anniversary and included a show at Glasgow’s O2 ABC. The duo performed in Las Vegas in 2017 before Prodigy’s death later that year.
