Did Prodigy Just Fire A Shot At Curtis?

Posted on August 28, 2009December 24, 2019 by Robbie Ettelson

Even though I posted this track already, this album has been getting constant attention in the car all week, and I couldn’t help but notice Prodigy‘s verbal swipe at his former boss at the start of his verse:

‘You outta your mind, you’re not feeling this hot shit/ Who got rich and stopped trying? You must be dumb – son, look at what I’ve done, I get bags fulla stacks for the shit I does’

Remember when 50 had that brief phase where he tried to get as many respected NY veterans on his team as possible in a bid to snatch back some street-level credibility? And all that resulted was Mobb‘s most hated album and more shelf time for Bill and Fame? Neither does Curtis, obviously.

    Nah… I actually think it’s a jab at people who said that about Mobb once they signed w/ the Unit. A lot of people had these ‘clever’ phrases to describe what they sounded like once they joined G-Unit… “got rich and stopped trying” being one I clearly remember. In fact, I almost wanna say Phonte said it.

    But I think that’s what it’s in reference to.

    Nah, P still has a lot of love for 50. He’s one of the only people, along w Mega and the rest of the unit who went to visit him up at midstate. Plus, 50 STAYS promoting P with whatever project he does…
    Pee stay w them codes tho so I can’t knock the decoding.

    i agree w/ the two brothas^^,i doubt he’ll bite the hand that feeds him..then again P do be in his own little world sometimes,remember when he startin dissin a whole bunch of rappers a few yrs. ago,j.budden included,for no reason

    P always gotta start controversy because he is a washed up rapper. He dumbed down his lyrics when he signed with 50. He’s in jail and no one remembers him so he gotta start some shit so they can hear about him.

    He’s like the kid who always seeks attention. Do a Jay Z. Ignore his ballerina ass!

    I seriously doubt that”Prodigy”dissed 50,and if he did…then 50 will have the last laugh.Some of y’all may have forgotten[prodigy]actually got G-unit tatooted on his knuckles,all over his hands.
    What a complete idiot,just to show loyalty to 50 and his G-Unit legacy,like a girl with-“property of so&so”across her tits,neck,thigh or whatnot.That should be more cause for alarm than a potential subliminal diss.And both those”waste of space”-SUCK anyway.WHERE IS THAT REAL HIPHOP??

    r. jones,

    your facts are wrong. p has mobb deep tatted on his fingers, his g-unit tat is on the back of his hands. 50 also had mobb deep tatted on his hands, but it’s no longer visible as you can see from the picture above (maybe he had the tats removed? if so…wow). am i the only one who remembers that 50 got mobb deep tatted on his hands when he signed the mobb?

    pardon the god. i did the knowledge via google search and it appears that 50’s mobb deep tattoo was on his *wrists* which is why the tats are not visible in the photo above. link below discussing that, but i don’t have photo evidence:

    i found another link that claims 50 removed all of his tattoos for his film career…can anyone confirm? i only ask because i don’t like spreading falsehoods… link:

    ain’t no beef, Mobb Deep next album will be on G-unit records when Prodigy will be out of jail…

    I thought Mobb Deep was still signed to G-Unit? Not that they’ll ever put another album out under Curtis…
