Over the years, Prodigy has made it clear he is no fan of Jay-Z. The two have been publicly feuding for ten years. Ever since he came out of prison, Prodigy has had a lot to say about everybody and every thing. Among his favorite topics have been Jay-Z and Barack Obama.

Speaking on Jay-Z, Prodigy said he chose his side a long time ago. Prodigy feels the only things Jay-Z cares about are money and power. When he does release music, Prodigy cites how he only talks about money. Prodigy said Jay-Z does not care to use his pull to spread awareness.

Changing topics, Prodigy set his sights on President Obama, saying he is in on the plot to rule the world. Prodigy warned people to watch out for the president. Openly stating he is a believer in the New World Order, Prodigy said the only reason Obama is president is because of the bloodline he has. Prodigy said this bloodline goes back to European royalty.

Prodigy said President Obama may not know this, but he is a part of the bloodline. Along with this bloodline comes the plot to take over the world by any means necessary. However, the cool part, says Prodigy, is the fact he doesn't want people to believe he is a part of this.

Prodigy said he almost fought Jay-Z after Summer Jam 2001

It is no secret that Jay-Z and Mobb Deep have issues with each other. The primary feud is not between Jay-Z and the group, but rather Jay-Z and Prodigy. For years, the two exchanged subliminal disses on songs.

But, by 2001, Jay-Z had officially crowned himself as the king of hip hop. With this, he had to defend his throne, which meant dissing Prodigy. In his diss to Prodigy, he also name-dropped Nas, another rival.

The major feud ended up being between Jay-Z and Nas, but Prodigy still had issues with Hov. Jay-Z first performed his "Takeover" diss at Summer Jam 2001. P was not pleased after hearing the song.

Weeks after the performance, both happened to be enjoying meals at Diddy's Justin's restaurant when Prodigy approached Jay-Z. In 2008, Prodigy talked a little about this confrontation. But, he recently delved deep into the situation. While Prodigy was not pleased with the song, his reasons for wanting to fight Jay-Z had nothing to do with the Summer Jam diss.

Prodigy said he had an entourage of around fifteen men and Jay-Z had two bodyguards. The men surrounded the door and were waiting for Jay-Z to exit the building. When he exited, he reached for P's hand and said he had no real beef with him. Instead, Jay-Z said their issues were simply music and he asked him to keep it music. Prodigy shook his hand and the two agreed to keep it music.

Looking back on it, Prodigy realizes he could have really taken advantage of Jay-Z if he wanted to.
