Mobb Deep's Havoc Says Prodigy Is "Still Doing His Thing Behind Bars" [Video]

Mobb Deep's Havoc recently updated fans on the status of incarcerated rapper Prodigy.

Hav said that Prodigy has still been able to create new music from jail.

"Prodigy is chilling, yeah, you know he's got the 'Phone Tap' song out, he's still doing his thing behind bars," Hav said in an interview. "That's classic P. He'll always find a way to make himself vocal, even if he's behind bars. But he's chilling, maintaining, he's ready to come out and get to work. He's got a book in the making, so it's just crazy. I talk to him, like, a few times a month and I go see him every few months so we're in pretty good contact. That's my brother."

Last March, Prodigy released his "Phone Tap" song from behind bars.

"Yo they monitor the phone calls, watch what you say, you gotta phone tap better watch how you speak, yeah, welcome to state prison, they got a call on the hotline, who is it," P raps. "I heard Rat P got knocked, I mean Max B, I heard Tru Life fighting -- anyway, 50 [Cent] came to see me last weekend, we had a long talk about how it's gon' be when I touch town, and when I touch down, we gonna party like the Super Bowl on the countdown...Everybody copy what the next man does, I listen to Pitbull and Flo Rida, these new n*ggas sounding like Kanye West -- all they gon' do is run like Saigon did, but tell Hav I love him, get the beats together, so when Mobb Deep drop we'll be bigger and better...Eh yo I just got a letter from the real Rick Ross, he in the Feds right now but he's real short, what else, Cormega came through on the humble, we had a good visit, that's my dun too...Michael Jackson died, the fans are bugging, now the Jay-Z Summer Jam picture means nothing...I seen Alchemist on tour with Slim Shady...I spoke to [Tony] Yayo last night..."

Earlier this year, Havoc spoke on visiting P and their intent to drop a follow-up to 2006's Blood Money album.

"HAD A REAL GOOD VISIT WIT PEE! HE TOLD ME TO TELL ALL U F*GGOTS IN THE INDUSRTY TO FALL THE F*CK BACK!," he wrote on Sunday (January 10). "Its Mobb Deep Forever. Wait till P get back!!!!! Next album will be classic!!"

P pleaded guilty in October 2007 to a gun possession charge which led to his current incarceration.

Mobb Deep rapper Prodigy has been sentenced to three-and-a-half years behind bars after pleading guilty to a weapons charge dating back to 2006. Authorities say Prodigy was pulled over in downtown Manhattan after he was spotted driving in the opposite direction on a one-way street in an attempt to claim a parking spot. A search of the car turned up an unlicensed .22-caliber pistol. He will begin his sentence January 2008.
