Prodigy to release "Product of the 80's" album on October 21st

In the months leading up to his incarceration, 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.

"Product of the 80's" will be released October 21st on Dirt Class Records.

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 winded down on 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" is handled by Jake One, Sid Roams (Joey Chavez and Bravo) and Sebb.

"Product of the 80's" street single "Stop Stressin" is hitting the internet now, while the Jake One featured single "Shed Thy Blood" will be released in the coming months.
