1995. CLASSIC NYC rap collabo. Mobb Deep's 'Eye for an Eye' featuring Nas & Rae.
Everyone murders their verses on this track.
Not to label or "grade" a person's work, but I think it's possibly BOTH Nas and Raekwon's best guest verses. (Verbal Intercourse is in CLOSE competition)
It would've been too easy to whip up a recognizable tee using the song title itself, 'Eye for An Eye,' or even 'Your Beef Is Mine.' We like to spark obscurity and mystery at AFM, so we use a less prominent line for our tribute to this 90's classic.
Rather than sticking to Prodigy's description of cruisin in the whip with the sunroof open, we're flipping the 'leather upholstery' line into a mom-and-pop style Queensbridge-based furniture store employee tee.
Royal blue with orange print. (Mobb Deep logo colorway from 'The Infamous' - also doubles as Mets' colors for all you Queens cats.)
You know you want to listen now. Here ya go:
Seen enough? Go cop the tee.
