History

Havoc is renowned among serious hip-hop fans as one of the prominent figures during the East Coast Renaissance in the mid 1990s for his hard-hitting and stripped-down beats complementary to the RZA's work on Wu-Tang Clan projects. Following The Infamous, he tweaked his skills and transitioned to a more atmospheric production style that incorporated samples from classical music, most notably visible on the 1996 album Hell on Earth. As an MC, he's known for his hardcore lyricism, deep voice, and consistent flow. Although at first he was considered the weaker MC out of the duo, this has arguably reversed as his flow has been preserved while Prodigy's has declined in quality. RZA (IPA pronounciation: //) (born Robert Diggs, July 5, 1969 in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York, USA) is an American hip hop producer, rapper and actor. ...
