Havoc of Mobb Deep joined VladTV for his first interview since Prodigy passed, and here he talks about growing up in Queensbridge in the 1980s, his decision to pursue music, and how he initially linked with Prodigy. Havoc describes the chain of events that led to the birth of Mobb Deep: an early record deal with Jive that Prodigy left, the first incarnation of Mobb Deep, the “Poetical Prophets,” and their early meetings with Diddy when they were just 15 and 16 years old.
