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. 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. The song is one of the most acclaimed in the album, along with "G.O.D. Pt. III" and "Hell on Earth (Front Lines)."
Guest appearances include Nas, Raekwon, Method Man, and frequent collaborator Big Noyd.
