On April 9, 2012, Havoc sent out a slew of Twitter insults towards Prodigy. Havoc would later deny the messages being his, saying he had lost his phone. However, he would later confirm that the tweets did in fact come from himself, also saying that Mobb Deep was on hiatus indefinitely.Gina Torres http://allhiphop.com/2012/07/27/exclusive-video-havoc-speaks-out-about-prodigy-rumors-and-says-mobb-deep-is-on-hiatus-indefinitely/ Exclusive Video: Havoc Speaks Out About Prodigy Rumors And Says Mobb Deep Is On "Hiatus….Indefinitely" AllHipHop.com 2012-07-27 2013-05-02Gipson Brooklyne https://www.bet.com/article/6lfuig/report-mobb-deep-beef-is-real https://web.archive.org/web/20231003082519/https://www.bet.com/article/6lfuig/report-mobb-deep-beef-is-real dead October 3, 2023 Report: Mobb Deep Beef Is Real BET 2013-05-02 This would result in a self-produced, diss track being released by Havoc titled, "Separated (Real from the Fake)".

At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 72, based on 5 reviews.http://www.metacritic.com/music/13/havoc 13 Reviews Metacritic 2013-05-07 2013-08-25 David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album four out of five stars saying, "13 already feels more vital than anything the Mobb has done since Amerikaz Nightmare from 2004. Add the worthy single "Tell Me to My Face" with Royce da 5'9" and the ridiculously good, strange, and solid solo cut "Hear Dat" to the second half of the album and Havoc's solo effort seems like a cathartic kiss-off or kinetic gangster celebration.\" Ronald Grant of HipHopDX gave the album three out of five stars, saying "Appearances from kindred spirits such as Styles P, Raekwon, Royce Da 5’9 and Mysonne help add variety. But Havoc’s talents and willingness to experiment with his tried and true production formula can’t overcome the monotony of the subject matter in his rhymes." Luke Fox of Exclaim! gave the album a six out of ten, saying "Even if you appreciate Havoc's reliability, you'll miss Prodigy's unpredictable diction. But as Hav and P (who also has a new disc on deck) squash their beef and celebrate the 20th anniversary of their '93 debut, Juvenile Hell, it's comforting to know a Mobb member can still churn out solid, steely-eyed murda music." Reed Jackson of XXL gave the album an L, saying "The project is another solid effort to add to the impressive Mobb Deep catalogue, even though it’s the first that doesn’t feature contributions from both MCs. Unfortunately, Hav never really digs that deep here, and the elephant in the room prevents him from taking that next step forward."
