Since Prodigy’s untimely death in June, frequent collaborator Alchemist is continuing the Queenbridge duo’s legacy with a fresh Mobb Deep track, “Try My Hand.” The seasoned producer posted the song as a standalone track on SoundCloud and captioned it, “For my brother.”
The track comes from Alchemist’s collaborative double-album, The Good Book, Vol. 2, with fellow producer Budgie, the follow-up to 2014’s The Good Book. Released Friday (July 21), the sequel is packed with 45 new tracks and guest spots from MCs like The Cool Kids‘ Chuck Inglish, Action Bronson, Royce Da 5’9, Evidence, Conway and Westside Gunn.
Alchemist and Mobb Deep’s relationship stretches back to the late ’90s, beginning with two tracks on the 1999 Mobb Deep album Murda Muzik — “Thug Muzik” featuring Infamous Mobb and Chinky, and “The Realest” with Kool G Rap. In 2007, Prodigy and Alchemist teamed up for Return of the Mac and six years later, collectively delivered Albert Einstein.

More garbage from Racist Alan. Once he started producing for Mobb Deep, their music went downhill.
Youre a fucking idiot. They started sounding better afterwards. Get out your feelings, bitchboy.
Nice try, “Fuck Queensbridge”…
Alc is dope producer but its another wack project from him with just looped samples instead of actual beats. I’ll pass.
stop it. if you liked russian roulette you would like this. Alc can do no wrong.
Well I didn’t like russian roulette. Last project I was really diggin from Al was first collabo project with Curren$y.
i feel you on that. that The Carrollton Heist had some dope highlights.
Blood Money is better than Hell on Earth. Im a purist and probably the only person who feels that way so you can suck a glass cock. R.I.P. H.N.I.C.
Blood Money is slept on but no way is it fucking wit Hell On Earth Prodigy bars were at their peak on that Joint.H.N.I.C 2 is slept on too Veterans Memorial 2 is one Prodigys most dope tracks speaking from his heart alchemist gave Prodigy all his best beats shame Jadakiss dont do a whole album wit Alchemist than he would have a classic solo album no doubt
Preference exists*but u trippin*thts like sayin terminator 3 is better than the 1st two*get the fuck outta here*
Still like alchemist music, but he can take L from me for ugly girlfriend n half his age. Lol
You goofy ass dudes focus on the wrong shit.. to concerned on what dude looks like and who he’s dating.. instead of the music.. thats some female shit.. hold this L boy
We are talking about that too here butthurt. Tiny n ti, nas, Kanye, drake, eminem, n pretty much everyone else. We talk about their women too. Sorry u still can’t save alc from taking L
Tiny and T.I? Who cares!? What are you even talking about? You sound like a lame ass dude.. no one is trying to “save Alchemist”. I could care less if Al was out there hooking up with dudes.. as long as those beats stay dope. Staying up to date on who’s dating who?.. go to tmz for that news clown.
The physical Book is so fucking dope best packaging since….vol.1 i aint even listened to the cd’s yet but the actual book is fucking beautiful and the first book was amazing music Alchemist production was a lot better than budgies
