Mobb Deep's own Havoc is the latest guest on the weekly Drink Champs podcast and he dropped a bomb on hosts N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN on an upcoming episode which you can check above via TMZ. It turns out Prince actually worked on Mobb Deep's song "Thou Shall Not Kill" that featured none other than Snoop Dogg.

They were in the studio recording when someone notice Prince was also in the building. "I was making the beat, and then I was like 'Holy shit, Prince.' Then, I was like 'Is there anything I need to do to the beat?' He was like 'Hold on' and then he got on the keyboard and just started...He was that cool," Havoc said. Of course, the only thing left to do was for Snoop to rap over the Prince-assisted beat. After everything, "Prince walked out and didn't even say bye."

Even after his untimely death, Prince continues to surprise us. If Prince taught us anything, it's to never underestimate the power of Prince.

It sounds like Havoc has a lot more to share about all of his time in the studio. The full interview doesn't arrive until Friday, but watch Havoc tell the whole story in the clip above and listen for Prince's keys on the song below.
