Hell on Earth is a 1996 album by hip-hop group Mobb Deep. It was released a year and a half after their previous album The Infamous. This album features a slight change in style to a more wicked, fierce sound, (which fits the title). The entire album was produced by Havoc, who also raps on the album with Prodigy. The second track, "Drop a Gem on 'Em", is a response to 2Pac's feud with the group, recorded when he was still alive. Guest appearances include Nas, Raekwon, Method Man, and frequent collaborator Big Noyd.
