Prodigy mural vandalized twice

As one half of Mobb Deep, Albert "Prodigy" Johnson's raw gritty lyrics about street life made him one of the most influential rappers of all time. Prodigy died June 20 due to complications from sickle cell anemia. On July 2, two artists -- Jeff Henriquez and Eli Lazare -- set out to immortalize him by painting a mural across the street from the Queensbridge Houses in Long Island City, where Mobb Deep spent a lot of their time.
