Prodigy (Mobb Deep) | Sway In The Morning
One half of Mobb Deep, Prodigy, stopped by Sway in the Morning to share his newest project, The Most Infamous Vol. 1 -- a compilation of his best work on a disposable music player.
"It's a collectors item," Prodigy tells us. "All the songs are preloaded with headphones," and after roughly 150 plays, the device stops working.
He also shared with us that he'll be off parole in 3 days and is planning on traveling overseas to reach his international fans.
Watch the two hip hop heads talk, below, plus cop Prod's new book, HNIC!
