Eight years after the death of its co-founder Prodigy, Mobb Deep is still on the road with Havoc carrying the torch alongside Big Noyd, who was a major presence on the duo’s breakthrough 1995 album The Infamous.

Mobb Deep c. 2025 can still rap ferociously over boom-bap drums as evidenced by recent performances where Havoc and Noyd rap Prodigy’s verses together.

Expect this show to pay tribute to the 30th anniversary of The Infamous and perhaps tease tracks from a new Mobb Deep album—produced by Havoc and The Alchemist, featuring posthumous, unreleased, vocals from Prodigy himself.

Tickets to see Mobb Deep play Crowbar in Ybor City on Saturday, Aug. 14 are still available for $39.42. Readers are invited to submit their own events to Creative Loafing Tampa Bay’s things to do calendar.
