Prodigy of Mobb Deep is looking mighty comfortable sitting on that ice throne. This full page ad is promoting his debut solo album, “H.N.I.C.” which didn’t up in the stores until the winter of 2000.
The sequel album wasn’t released until eight years later in 2008. Now that’s what you call being on on ice.

Check out young $hort Dogg rocking the Cadillac chain, gold rings and puffy jacket with the fur collar. From the looks of the VIP backstage pass stuck to his shirt, he was at the Yo! MTV Raps Dope Jam Tour that took place in 1988 at the Oakland Coliseum Arena.
Here is an odd black & white promo photo of The Wheel Chair Posse, a rap group from Louisiana who was signed to the label Buckaroo Records.

Here is the February 1994 issue of 4080 Magazine Vol. 2, No. 2 featuring the East Bay legend Spice 1 on the cover. Check out the fat nugg of chronic between his lips like a joint and a police scanner in his front pocket. Gangsta!
The cover of the 4080 mag also features photos of E-40 and Master P promoting their albums The Mail Man and The Ghettos Tryin To Kill Me! Both albums featured cover art by Phunky Phat Graph-X and were distributed by Solar Music Group.
