The songs buzz lead to Irv and Mic landing a deal at Blunt/TVT Records as their first rap artist to be released. Mic than began work on his first album. Titled "The Natural", the album was a collection of deeply crafted street chronicles accompanied with production from some of that eras greatest producers. Buc Wild, Irv Gotti, Da Beatminerz, Marc Sparxx, and Havoc of Mobb Deep all contributed powerful beats to the lp. Mic also shared the company of such artist as Ja Rule, DMX, OC, Royal Flush and Jay-Z. The album instantly became a certified street classic. Taking a brief hiatus after touring Mic then began work on his 1996 follow up sophomore lp. This time, Mic teamed up with Diddy(formerly Puff Daddy) for the first single "Nothing Move But the Money". A mainstream hit at radio, the song was one of 15 bullets in his second effort "Vendetta". Vendetta was a transition lp, featuring the likes of The Lox, Ja Rule, DMX, Kelly Price, Jay-Z, and Monifah. For production, Mic turned to Buc Wild, Derrick "D.Dot" Angelitte, Pete Rock, Irv Gotti, and newcomers Kaysahn, and Father Time. Again solidifying himself as a thorough lyrisist, and even compared to such greats as Nas, Big L, and even Rakim, Vendetta became Mic's second classic.
