One of the most anticipated releases in Mass Appeal’s “Legend Has It” series this year was easily the new Mobb Deep<\/a> album, and Infinite<\/a> certainly did not disappoint. The posthumous album from the late Prodigy<\/a> \u2013 who raps alongside his partner Havoc<\/a> with assistance from The Alchemist on here \u2013 is getting love from a lot of hip-hop corners, including a recent shoutout from Pusha T<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Uncle Al had taken to Twitter<\/a> to celebrate the new LP hitting the top of Apple Music’s hip-hop album chart, encouraging more folks to run it up. “Its working. Keep running it up lets show the strength #INFINITE,” he wrote. “RUN IT UP!!!” the Virginia MC replied in a quote-tweet.<\/p>\n

Of course, this is notable because Pusha T lays claim to another AOTY contender in 2025. Speaking of legendary rap duos releasing comeback records this year, Clipse already dropped Let God Sort Em Out<\/a> back in July, which saw Push reunite with his brother Malice for a whole full-length experience. Instead of Alchemist helping the duo bring everything to life, Pharrell<\/a> worked with the Hell Hath No Fury icons behind the boards.<\/p>\n

However, it’s important to note that Havoc handled most of the production on Infinite. Clipse appear on the track “Look At Me,” so this shoutout should come as no surprise either way.<\/p>\n

Now, both groups can reflect on their excellent 2025 records. For example, Pusha T spoke on rap’s age ceiling<\/a> during a recent interview, which he feels Let God Sort Em Out helped break.<\/p>\n

“You started the question with the phrasing of a young man\u2019s sport \u2014 we kind of cracked the ceiling on that,” he told Billboard. “Looking at just competing in music, I\u2019ve never felt like it was a young man\u2019s sport. I always felt like it was a competitor\u2019s sport. As long as you\u2019re competing and you\u2019re living through the times, you should be in it.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the most anticipated releases in Mass Appeal’s “Legend Has It” series this year was easily the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[14648,49,48,75,5321,31198,76494,341,21295,44,102027,9555],"class_list":["post-209698","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-apple-music","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-hip-hop-news","tag-mobb-deep","tag-mobb-deep-infinite","tag-music","tag-new-album","tag-news","tag-number-one-album","tag-pusha-t"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
