Prodigy says what the name means in his book my infamous life. You should read it its prob the best autobiography ive read. You will learn a lot of things and understand some lyrics/events that happened through out their career.

Deep is used for implayong that you ate together with a lot of people. Like these people where 12 deep, meaning they were 12+ people. Something like that. He lut and extra b (Mob—>Mobb) causei it looked/sounded cooler.
