Prodigy Explains SummerJam Screen Photos & Passed Up Chance With Mary J. Blige On Hot97′s Morning Show
Posted by Mikey Fresh under old music , quotes , videos[3] Comments
The Infamous P stopped by Hot97′s morning show with Cipha Sounds, K. Foxx and Peter Rosenberg earlier this AM. With Prodigy’s autobiography and The Ellsworth Bumpy Johnson EP receiving props from critics and fans, the Queensbridge native’s transition back home as been a smooth one.
Prodigy explains how his parents involvement in music influenced his career and ultimately it was his grandmother who pushed him to do ballet as a child. He also explains his current status with G-Unit and admits to be shook when he thought Mary J Blige was pushing up on him one night.
after the jump, check out pt.1 of Mobb Deep’s mini documentary series, Start Of Your Ending.

I caught some of this interview this morning an one thing i kept hearing from Prodigy Was the word “WE” when comments n accolades were directed his way.
This is something you hear less of as MCeez n Clicks get older n farther n this industry.
its good to see that he hasnt forgotten his foundation. As so many do.

I find it completely insane that his mother was in the Crystals because they were a great group in their time (I’m 27 and grew up on the Mobb, mind you) but anytime you watch “GoodFellas” and hear the song “And Then He Kissed Me”, that’s his mom singing. NEED to get on this book.
