Prodigy From Mobb Deep Is A Trend Setter

I saw over on Nah Right that Prodigy’s latest blog post delineates in exquisite detail his numerous contributions to the rap community.

A few of my favorites:

#2 RAPPING WORDS THAT DONT ALWAYS RHYME

#12 PROTOOLS,,,,STARTED USING IT IN 98

#19 WEB SITES, I HAD INFAMOUSSTORES.COM AND WAS WRITING BLOGS BACK IN 99 LONG BEFORE IT BECAME POPULAR IN HIP HOP TO HAVE A WEB SITE.

#23 MAKING EXPOSING THE ILLUMINATI, SECRET GOVERNMENT AND HIDDEN TRUTHS THAT NEW HOT SHIT…

#26 I COULD JUST KEEP GOING BUT NOW I’M TIRED… HOW DARE YOU QUESTION MY TREND SETTING, LOOK AT WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE.

For what it’s worth, P, I have never ever questioned your trend setting. You bring to the table a delicious feast of fresh and innovative actions that define the zeitgeist of the 21st century.

(Full list after the jump)

PEOPLE SPEAKING ON SHIT THEY DONT KNOW ABOUT AND ACTING LIKE THEY INFAMOUS / G-UNIT RAP EXPERTS IS THE SADDEST SHIT IN HIP HOP HISTORY. PLEASE STOP IT RIGHT NOW AND FIND ANOTHER HOBBY CAUSE YA NOT THE WORLDS FOREMOST AUTHORITY ON MOBB DEEP. thank yew
