R.I.P. Prodigy of Mobb Deep Still can't believe that I'm typing this. Prodigy,(shown above wearing our God Father inspired Killing the game tank top), one half of the The Infamous Mobb Deep passed away yesterday, June 20, 2017. In my book, Prodigy was one of the best to ever do it. Here at 8&9, our catalog is filled with classic Queens music.HNIC was played at least once a week for 7 years at The Showroom.  With Prodigy's lyrics and sound, along with the unique production from Havoc, it's undeniable that Mobb Deep was a incredible group. Being from NY,  he'll always be on my top 10 NY rappers list. Not only was he a ill lyricist, Prodigy never backed down from anyone and held NY down when Snoop came through and crushed the buildings. We've payed homage numerous times in our designs to Prodigy and Mobb Deep songs and lyrics.  We first used the lyrics "There's a war going on outside no man is safe from" on our "War" shirt. We also created a Keep it Thoro graphic and referenced the song "Three" by Prodigy and the homie Cormega in one of our graphics.

Happy Father's Day 2017 Just wanted to say Happy Father's Day to all the fellas out there holding it down! I hear people my age complaining about the youth all the time. What those people fail to realize, is these kids are not only a product of their environment, but a direct product of their guardians. As men, we need to be there for our kids and guide them in the right path, especially with all of the distractions they're faced with today. So today, we celebrate the Father's that drop gems, life lessons, and values that make the youth stronger, wiser and keep them, safe in this crazy world. Check out this classic scene from Friday below. To all the Father's out there, #Salute!

Floyd Mayweather Vs Conor McGregor Fight Confirmed! TBE aka legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. and MMA superstar Conor McGregor announced yesterday that they would be fighting on Aug. 26, 2017! The wait is finally over! This is the real deal, it's really on!!! I can't lie, I didn't think this would happen at all! This may go down as one of the most hyped up and intriguing matchups in fight history. I have no doubt in my mind that Mayweather will embarass McGregor, but that's just my opinion, and most of the world's, lol!!  There's been betting lines out for months, even though the fight was never confirmed. The current odds favors Mayweather (-800) over underdog McGregor (+500). For those of you that don't bet, that means you would have to bet $800 in order to win $900 and gain a  $100 profit. Meanwhile, if you bet $100 on McGregor you would win $600 profiting $500! Who do you think will win the fight? Let us know in the comments and stay tuned for more info as this story develops!!!

5 Flint officials indicted on manslaughter charges over water crisis It's mind blowing to know that Flint, Michigan has not had clean water since April 2014. How can a crisis go on for so long without a resolution or someone being held accountable? To be clear, the water quality has returned to "acceptable levels"; however, residents were instructed to continue to use bottled or filtered water until all the lead pipes have been replaced, which is expected to be completed no sooner than 2020. Well, as Flint residents still await a complete resolution to this problem, they now at least have some type of satisfaction that someone may be held accountable for this.   Michigan’s attorney general has filed new, more serious charges of involuntary manslaughter against five officials in the Flint Water Crisis investigation, among them the head of Michigan’s health department. Heath chief Nick Lyon was charged with two felonies, involuntary manslaughter and misconduct in office, for failing to alert the public about an outbreak in Legionnaires’ disease in the Flint area. Some experts linked the outbreak to poor water quality during the height of water crisis in 2014-15. Nearly 100 people were affected during the Legionnaires outbreak, 12 of whom died.  The other 4 officials were charged with involuntary manslaughter, all for failure to act in the Flint water crisis. It remains to be seen if they will actually be charged for this crime, we'll have to wait and see. Source :RT
