Nas confirmed a long-awaited Mobb Deep album titled “Infinite” is on the way, produced by The Alchemist and honoring Prodigy’s legacy.
Nas dropped a major teaser Monday (September 8) for a new Mobb Deep album titled Infinite, giving Hip-Hop heads a reason to look forward to 2025 with a posthumous project honoring the late Prodigy.
In a short video posted to Instagram, Havoc reflects on the creative process behind the album.
“We didn’t have no choice but to make ill songs,” he says in the clip. “We really dug deep and was like, ‘Aight, let’s do it, man, with these lyrics, the beats.’”
Nas captioned the post, “@mobbdeepqb Against The World #Infinite coming soon.”
The upcoming release marks Mobb Deep’s first album since 2014’s The Infamous Mobb Deep and their first since Prodigy’s death in 2017.
The project is entirely produced by Havoc and The Alchemist, who both confirmed earlier this year that the album is complete.
“This s### is official,” Havoc said during a recent appearance on Drink Champs. “It’s done. S### is mixed, mastered, ready to go.”
The Alchemist echoed the sentiment in an earlier interview, praising the depth of Prodigy’s lyrics.
“They did so much work, it was insane,” he said. “You could just peel back layers in Prodigy’s rhymes. He was ahead of his time.”
Infinite is part of Mass Appeal’s Legend Has It… series, a curated slate of releases from Hip-Hop legends, including Nas & DJ Premier, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, De La Soul, Big L and a still-unnamed surprise artist.
The series was announced in April and will roll out through the end of 2025.
The album also coincides with the 30th anniversary of Mobb Deep’s 1995 classic The Infamous, a cornerstone of East Coast Hip-Hop that painted a stark portrait of life in Queensbridge.
While no official drop date has been confirmed, Nas’ post signals that Infinite is on the horizon.
