 Настоящее
имя Kejuan Muchita, родился 21 мая 1974 года в Queens New York. Начал свою
карьеру в 1992 году. Рэпер и продюссер, участник дуэта Mobb Deep вместе с

the Darkman, Big Noyd, Termanology, Jimmy Mserembo, Capone-N-Noreaga и других.
Весной 2005 Mobb Deep подписывает лэйбл 50 Centa G-Unit Records.
В конце 2006 года поползли слухи, что Mobb Deep могут покинуть лэйбл полтиника,
из-за различий в подходе написания музыки с 50 Cent, однако это были лишь слухи.
В 2007 году у Havoc выходит первый сольный альбом The Kush. В силу того что
напарник по Mobb Deep находится за решёткой и выйдет ещё не скоро Havoc
выпускает второй альбом Hidden Files в 2009.

Kejuan Muchita (born May 21, 1974 in Long Island City, Queens,
New York), better known as Havoc, is an MC-record producer, and one half of the
hip-hop duo Mobb Deep with Prodigy.
Biography
Havoc produces most of the tracks on every Mobb Deep album, and has produced
songs for MCs such as Method Man, Nas, Foxy Brown, Onyx, The Notorious B.I.G.,
Jadakiss, Styles P, The Game, LL Cool J, 50 Cent, G-Unit, Lil' Kim, La The
Darkman, Big Noyd, Termanology, Jimmy Mserembo, Capone-N-Noreaga, and his own
partner Prodigy on his solo work. In the spring of 2005, Mobb Deep was signed to
fellow Queens rapper 50 Cent's record label G-Unit Records. However, in late
2006 there was speculation that the producer was at odds with label figurehead
50 Cent due to creative differences musically, but was later proven false from
both of their representatives.
Havoc is renowned among serious hip-hop fans as one of the prominent figures
during the mid 1990s for his hard-hitting and stripped-down beats complementary
to the RZA's work on Wu-Tang Clan projects. Following The Infamous, he tweaked
his skills and transitioned to a more atmospheric production style that
incorporated samples from classical music, most notably visible on the 1996
album Hell on Earth. As an MC, he is known for his hardcore lyricism, deep
voice, and consistent flow.
In July of 2009 Havoc was featured alongside Raekwon in J Dilla's music video
for "24k Rap" off of the Jay Stay Paid album, the video was directed by Derek
Pike.
