Geto Boys- "My Mind is Playing Tricks on Me" Lyrics Sampled

 "I stand alone in my 4 cornered room starring @ candles, listening to gangsta music," Juelz Santana and Prodigy use this verse in their songs without making it come off to sound like just a copy. Sampling lyrics is not a standard procedure such as sampling actual music. Juelz and Prodigy paid homage to Geto Boys when they revived this very first line of this very special song, "My Mind is Playing Tricks on Me". Their different approaches change the essence of  feeling and the sounds are to a new flow. The Geto Boys were on that raw 1991 fresh vibe that maintained a soulful, melodious sensation. Whereas, Juelz flips it for 2003 on the hook of "Dipset Anthem".  Prodigy had his hand on "Mac 10 Handle" in 2006. So then in 2009, the Game brought it back when he said, "I make big money, I drive big cars, everybody know me, it's like I'm a movie star," from the first line in the second verse.
There's no song like this in hip-hop history. It's break down is a precise story. Scarface probably wrote the whole sh!t, he's a ill storyteller. The song lyrics have been sampled time and time again.....

'Loving Us More' Mobb Deep Concert in NYC

'New Yitty' They're back!! 'The Best of Queens' power poets brought heat to the Best Buy Theater Thursday night May 12, 2011.

Everything flowed last night, from their clean line-up which included The Roots, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon & Capadona, and last but not least the M-O-B-B. Their performance of the Quiet Storm remix featuring Lil Kim was the sure crowd pleaser. Everyone caught the "holy hip-hop" at sight of her purple mini-dressed, Brooklyn swag and low-crouched swing.

Black Thought delivered his mind, body and spiritual consciousness, opening the floor.

'P' was behind bars, writing bars on pull-up bars. He looks like he had a personal chef and options. Good eating my brother! Time isn't the only thing he maxed; he's never been bigger. 
Prodigy was released this year on March 7 after serving 3 years in prison for gun possession. "It's a fresh start" for P, as he expresses in their 'Love Y'all More' new release. His delivery was felt deep throughout the 2100 capacity theater, the venue has never been more packed..

It's the real baby-- hip-hop hip-hop hip-hop!!! Mobb Deep brought it back where it's supposed to be.

Young Veterans- IMD

MOBB DEEP, GHOSTFACE KILLAH, RAEKWON & THE ROOTS 

The Infamous Mobb Deep  will start their tour on the other side of their Queens' Bridge Housing Project in Manhattan, at Time Squares' Best Buy Theater, Thursday May 12th.

Queens finest duo includes rapping poet Prodigy and producer/rapper Havoc.

"At 16, [he] mastered the 16 bars." Prodigy's stories flow but don't seem to care much about rhyming all of the time. He's just talking and it's rhythmically telling. There's a lot of stuff on his mind that just rolls off of his tounge. He exposes conspiracy to coping, from living with sickle cell anemia to "illuminati wants your mind soul and your body."

The H.N.I.C.'s of 1990's NYC style hip-hop are well recognized and respected coast to coast.

From New York City, Mobb Deep will be touring throughout Cali; ending up back in Massachustets.
