Prodigy Talks on Moving Past Beefing

Prodigy, one half of the rap group, Mobb Deep, who recently got out of jail, has put the word out that there is no more beefing for him; he wants to do a lot of songs with a lot of people. Mobb Deep signed with 50 cent in 2005, and they automatically couldn't associate with all the people G-Unit had beefs with, which was A LOT.

In a video interview with ThisIs50, Prodigy of Mobb Deep revealed that following his recent release from prison he’s willing to put past beefs behind him for the sake of music.

“I went straight from prison straight to the G-Unit office and then I came to the studio after that,” Prodigy explained. “So when I stopped at the office I had told 50, ‘Yo, right now we in a position where we gotta start doing songs with people.’ As far as Mobb Deep. We gotta start doing songs with a lot of people…Cause that’s what it is man. It’s like when nigga’s ain’t doing songs with people, beefing with people and all that. We really trying to dead all that.”

Among the many artists Prodigy has reached out to in regards to a possible collaboration is Miami rapper Rick Ross. When asked if Ross’ corrections officer background would be an issue Prodigy explained that he isn’t at all bothered by the rappers past.

“Rick Ross is just one rapper out of many that we’ve been reaching out to,” said Prodigy. “Number one, aight he a correction officer. Aight, so what? I know a lot of cops. I know a lot of corrections officers. I know some people that’s on the other side of the criminal shit and just because you got that job or whatever that doesn’t necessarily mean that you a part of the people that’s tryna target us and fuck with us…That doesn't bother me that he was a corrections officer.”

Both Ross and Prodigy are rumored to be working together on a project titled “Black Cocaine.” Prodigy referred to the project in a Tweet to Ross earlier this month. (hiphopdx.com)

Hmm! This is great; it is like Jail changed Prodigy for the better. I am sure when you have time to reflect on all the things you could have done, you start waiting for the day you come out so you could go back to doing all you have to do. And he is looking fit again; even fitter than just before he went in.

I can remember when Prodigy was always taking shots at Nas during every interview he was in, and running his mouth about how 50cent made him rich. At that point, i stopped messing with him. How could he throw away a 10 year friendship with nas, for money; i didn't see loyalty in that. I am glad he is back to his senses.
