Before the album came out Bone Thugs N Harmony's beef with Do Or Die, Twista and Crucial Conflict reached a pitch when Bone dissed every one of them on The Art Of War so you know how the rest of the story is going to go. The first track Crook County(featuring Newsense) was an obvious diss record at Bone and if you couldnt catch that, you're slow. There is a reason why it was called "the BoneCrusher mix"(duh). At any rate, Liffy Stokes and Mayze strut their stuff on hard core tracks like Mob Up, Mobstability(which samples NWA's Alwayz Into Something), Warm Embrace and Loyalty. Front Porch which features Danny Boy is another standout plus that beat was sick. Smoke With You and Party Hoes are also good and Legit Ballers is not bad. The only tracks that are skippable is Dreams which is an awful song for the ladies and In Your World is nothing to brag about. Bottom Line: Mobstablity is worth checking out. Twista and The Speed Knot Mobstaz did their thing and no Twista does not floor them on every track. They all shined on here. Standout Tracks: CROOK COUNTY(BONECRUSHER MIX), MOB UP, MOBSTABILITY, PARTY HOES, WARM EMBRACE, LOYALTY, SMOKE WITH YOU(the beat sounds like Michael Jackson's Rock With You), FRONT PORCH and LEGIT BALLERS.
June 22, 2007Twista has always been one of my favorites and this cd shows just how good this underground legend and his crew really are. They can pull out great soft tracks and hardcore street thumping tracks. Twista is of course a speedy lyrical master in this one, people who don't appreciate this cd feel that way because they dont know what it is to have good rap, because theyre too caught up in what everyone else likes, "50 cent" and "laffy taffy",,,
Front Porch, Mobstabliity, Warm Embrace, Smoke Wit You, and Dreams are all 5/5 tracks
April 11, 2006Honestly this is a real good CD but it doesnt beat adrenaline rush. My favorite song on this cd is probably Front Porch. It's a perfect song to kick it wit you're homies and get high on the front porch. Listen to at and LOve It. CHI LOVE TO THE FULLEST. Also listen to smoke wit u and DREAMS wit ur girl.

I was happy to see Twista finally breakthrough on the commercial Rap scene last year with "Kamikaze". On his fourth release "Mobstability" (1998), Twista teamed up with The Speedknot Mobstaz Liffy Stokes and Mayz, while the Legendary Traxster provides production. After the intro the album opens with the banging Crook Country (Bone Crusher Mix) feat. Female MC Newsense. The albums first real standout for me is "Front Porch", Liffy, Mayz and Twista drop some memorable verses about weed and women, while Danny Bro delivers a memorable chorus. Traxster laces the excellent "Legit Ballers" with a memorable laidback beat, all three drop some on point rhymes, and Twista shines on the chorus. At this point the album goes downhill for me some with some forgettable, two tracks standout though, the trio come strong on thugged out "Warm Embrace" and provide a love track to remember with the heartfelt "Dreams" feat Viky. My favorite tracks on this album are "Front Porch", "Legit Ballers" and "Dreams". I recommend checking out "Mobstability". 3.5.
July 20, 2005Following Adrenaline Rush, Twista teamed up with the duo, Speedknot Mobstaz, for a Chi-Town massacre. 14 tracks where the Mobstaz laced all The Legendary Traxster's beats. The title track is composed similar to N.W.A.'s "Alwayz Into Something" and is as nice as the original. As the trio calls out competition to "Mob Up" you get to journey with the "Legit Ballers" through Chicago. "Warm Embrace" is a song about loving and feeling guns. "Front Porch" features the vocals of Danny Boy to take the album to another level. Though most of the songs are slow to mid-tempo to compliment Twista's flow sometime the others don't stand up to his caliber. As they show another side on the commercial, r&b feel "Dreams", they equally shared the spotlight. "Crook County (Bone Crusher Mix) featuring Newsense is the fastest song that sets the tone for the rest to come on this lp. This is a must have for the production and lyrics both are impressive.
