His mother, Fatima Johnson – then known as Francis Collins – was once a member of the Sixties girl group the Crystals, while his grandfather, Budd Johnson was an acclaimed bebop saxophonist and clarinetist for the likes of Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie. Johnson’s great-great-great-grandfather, William Jefferson White, founded Georgia's Morehouse College in the basement of his Baptist church. The pair released their first demo together in 1992 under the name Poetical Prophets, which they followed up a year later with their Mobb Deep debut, Juvenile Hall. Their 1995 follow-up The Infamous, remains a hardcore NYC classic and features one of the group's signature songs, \"Shook Ones Pt. II.\"","location":1,"location_name":"Default","play_type":"trackplay"}
