"Quiet Storm" is the first single from Mobb Deep's third album Murda Muzik. It was originally released on the soundtrack for the film In Too Deep. The song features a sample of the bass line from the classic hip-hop song "White Lines (Don't Do It)" by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five. It also features a sample from Smokey Robinson's "A Quiet Storm". The song is widely believed to be one of Mobb Deep's greatest songs. In 2001, R&B group 112 used an updated version of the "Quiet Storm" beat for their number one single, It's Over Now.

A remix featuring Lil' Kim titled "Quiet Storm (Remix)" was released as the album's second single.
