Havoc is one half of the group Mobb Deep (and the better half in my opinion). He is holding down Mobb while Prodigy is in jail. I haven't really been into Mobb Deep since Shook Ones days and became even less a fan when they signed to G-Unit. However, this new Havoc tape, From Now On, goes hard. I didn't expect it to be as good as it was. The production was good and most of the beats were banging for East Coast production. As far as lyrics go Havoc doesn't let down as he supplies his quality street knowledge on wax. However, he sometimes uses a monotonic delivery which can make him sound boring on some tracks. You can tell when he is feeling tracks because he abandons that lazy flow. The most personal and deep track on here that stood out the most to me is, Always Have A Choice. The banging beat mixed with Havoc’s signature rhyme style match perfectly. You can tell he worked hard to drop real content that actually meant something. This was an altogether tight tape for Havoc despite a few mediocre tracks. He has definitely begun to regain my respect. The standouts that are exclusive to this tape were Bang Bang, Handle My Handle, H Is Back, Fly With Me, Always Have A Choice, You Take Her, and Sex Tape, 3.75/5.
