Synopsis

Amazon.com

After getting signed to G-Unit, the veteran Queensbridge duo of Prodigy and Havoc bragged that they were now "superstars." Maybe not yet lil soldiers, but Blood Money is still a marked improvement over the last few MD albums. Hav and P sound surprisingly good meshing their laconically menacing style with G-Unit's hook-heavy production. If they really want triple-platinum sales, they need more songs like the infectious "Outta Control" or the pre-fab-club hit "Have a Party," but the Mobb weren't made to cut "Candy Shop" clones. They work better with the dark, sinister stylings of "The Infamous" (a nod to their 1994 album of the same name) or the funky loops on "Put Em In Their Place." For all the murda music--"Click, Click," "Creep"--there are some unexpected departures, like the blasphemously philosophical "Pearly Gates" and the smooth, mellow "It's Alright." 50 Cent fans should be happy to hear him on six of the songs, with the rest of the G-Unit making obligatory single guest spots. --Oliver Wang

"I am a Mobb Deep fan since Juvenile Hell, but they been G-Euniched. In Blood Money, the first mistake was having their executive producer being "50 Cents" instead of themselves or at least the Alchemist, which was the joint producer of Eminem's Re-Up CD. From beginning to the end, you hear "G-Unit" instead of "The Infamous" which shown them being completely sold out from their own foundation. Of their songs on the CD, the best beat goes to "Pearly Gates". Interesting enough, the CD has the edited version of the song because Prodigy says alot of offensive things about Jesus Christ in the original version. Other decent songs are songs that been on other CDs. But this is a G-Unit CD and if you love G-Unit, then you would love this one. But being a Mobb Deep fan, they completely lost their identity."
