Infamous Mobb, also known as IM3, is a hip hop group from Queensbridge in Queens, New York, composed of members Ty Nitty, Twin Gambino, and Godfather, Pt. III. They are an integral part of the Queensbridge hip hop scene, which includes rappers like Nas, Cormega and Mobb Deep, and began with the Juice Crew. [ [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:fvfqxq8kldhe~T1 allmusic ((( Infamous Mobb > Biography ))) ] ] Friends since childhood, Infamous Mobb members G.O.D. Father, Ty Nitty, and Twin Gambino all grew up on Queensbridge's 41st side 21st Street.

Infamous Mobb first appeared on Mobb Deep's album "Hell on Earth". They also appeared on "Murda Muzik" and "Infamy", as well as many mixtapes. The group also appeared on Nas' "QB Finest" compilation album as well as DJ Muggs's first Soul Assassins album. Their debut, "Special Edition", was not released until 2002; it features extensive production by The Alchemist. The album was released on Infamous Mobb's own IM3 label and distributed by Landspeed Records.

In 2004, the group released "Blood Thicker Than Water, Vol. 1". This album was also released on the IM3 label, but this time through Monopolee Records. A second version of the album was released which included a bonus DVD. The DVD includes Infamous Mobb music videos as well as in-depth interviews with some of the group's Queensbridge affiliates.

There is some confusion among fans and media about the similar names of Infamous Mobb and Mobb Deep. Both groups are from Queensbridge; Mobb Deep released an album in 1995 titled "The Infamous"; and Infamous Mobb debuted on Mobb Deep's following album, "Hell on Earth".
