In the months leading up to his incarceration, Albert Johnson commonly known as Prodigy of Mobb Deep recorded a prolific body of work.
A large portion of his efforts will be found on his upcoming album Product of the 80's which features Big Twins and Un Pacino, who both share heavy mic time with P.
The album pays homage to the era Prodigy and his Queens cohorts grew up in. Crack-Cocaine, Reaganomics, the Cold War, the Iran-Contra scandal, a U.S. Recession, and the explosion of Hip-Hop all play large roles in the albums content.
As time wound down for the start of Prodigy's prison time, he found sanctuary in his recording sessions at Dirt Class Studios in Brooklyn. Often P arrived alone and left alone. There was no entourage, there were no groupies. These sessions became his momentary escape for writing and recording.
Production on Product of the 80's is handled by Jake One, Sid Roams (Joey Chavez and Bravo) and Sebb.
