Prodigy had so much time to spare before going to jail, so he decided to shoot a music video for every song on his H.N.I.C. 2 album. Now, P will expand his hustle by releasing a video accompaniment to H.N.I.C. 2 album on June 17th. The DVD will feature exclusive videos for the following songs:
In other news, Prodigy has a new blog up on Vibe.com.
Prodigy - “The Dough”
Yet another gem from the HNIC 2 cutting room floor.
Timely track from HNIC 2. Touches on the Sean Bell shooting.

P shot a slew of music videos for his new album, HNIC 2, before going to jail. Why his camp decided to unveil all the videos at the same time I’ll never understand. Not complaining though.
Three more clips under the roof. (more…)
5 mins, 11 secs, and it’s not even the longest track on H.N.I.C. 2.
Directed by Rik Cordero wannabe, Jordan Tower
The first 40 seconds is littered with drops and threats, so skip that part.
Here’s what an average hip-hop artist’s career cycle looks like (the long-standing ones, at least):
–>Starts off with 1 - 2 supa dupa album(s)
–> Gets stuck in a creative rut for 2-5 years
–> Bounces back with 1 exceptional album to hush the haters
–> Hits creativity wall again…You get the picture.
P’s bounceback album was the appropriately titled Return of the Mac, one of the Top 10 albums of 2007. Thankfully, he keeps the creative juice flowing throughout H.N.I.C. 2. He sounds more mature, more articulate, yet more irreverent than ever. Now, all that will probably change after he goes to jail. I can’t think of too many rappers that have been able to drop a decent album after being locked up. Must be that jail food.
