“Fruit Snack Rap” Must Die
Posted by Bossip Staff
Scarface blasts “wack” rap and the hip hop music industry as a whole:
Most people heard about the interview you did with DJ Vlad when you were saying “F*ck Rap”, so you obviously have some issues with the industry. If you were the overseer of the Hip-Hop/Rap game, how would you start to rebuild?
I’d start from the top. The first thing is everything would have to be screened. The fu*cking fruit snack Rap would be done.
What’s considered fruit snack Rap?
Anything that punishes Hip-Hop.
Well what do you think punishes Hip-Hop?
Anything that does not add to the art form and that takes away from what Hip-Hop is. Hip-Hop is a feeling man, it’s a way of life. Anything that radio plays is wack. All the great records don’t get played. I feel like radio and big record companies are trying to destroy Black music with the shit that they play… by the way that they exploit it. You got Black America thinking it’s cool for women to walk around with their breasts out. I think to cover up what’s really going on today in the world they flood the market with some bullshit. It’s like Watergate, the shit is a crime.
Is there one record label in particular that you believe engages in this the most?
I’d say all of them, that’s my one record label. The shit went from Eric B and Rakim to fuddy duddy and the tennis shoe clique [laughs]. Now videos are about drinking champagne, show as much jewellery and ride in all the fu*king cars.
Would you fire some record label executives?
No, I’d make them muthaf*ckas come see me like the United Nations before they do something. In 1989 or 1999 if you brought that bullshit in, you would’ve got laughed at.
What about certain artists? Jay-Z has been doing it for quite sometime, how do you feel about his position in the rap game right now?
Who Jay? He’s the best, what else could you say? He got here and all you can do is move forward. He’s a UFO baller! Jigga’s the unidentified flying object, he’s skyballin’, we’re playing basic ball.
How do you feel about an artist like Soulja Boy?
I think Soulja Boy had a brilliant idea, what he did with it was great. He took what he had and made money from it. If he’s that f*cking smart he’s going to be a billionaire. So I got a lot of respect for Soulja Boy. I don’t have respect for all the shit that gets like 50,000 spins a week for eight months, and then when their record comes out they sell like eight copies the first week. Their six months into their album and they only got 3000 records, but they sold 150,000 ringtones. How do you face your momma with that shit? I think it’s bullshit, it discredits the whole Hip-Hop movement when you resort to ringtone rapping. It’s not respecting the game, it’s disrespecting it. I think the internet, Black radio and big record companies are hurting Black music.
Would you ever want to be the head of a record label again?
Yeah, but I’d probably be fired like the third week. I’m not going to sign that two step shit. They’ll be thinking oh man this is f*cking hot for the radio… I’m like this shit is f*cking trash. How can a gang of white boys tell a n*gga what’s hot? Quote that, I said that, I said it!
How the f*ck can you tell me about Hip-Hop, man… I’m Hip-Hop! So I think the f*cking roles need to be reversed. N*ggas should be sitting behind the desk, them muthaf*ckas should be running around. Giving certain artists the spotlight, their moving inside our position, it’s bullshit!
How do you feel about white rappers?
I don’t mind if they rap, I just mind them playing slave master and slave driver. It’s white boys who own the big magazines that talk about rap. A white woman owns the biggest rap magazine in the South. Don’t get me wrong I love her, but does she know more about Hip-Hop than you? Here I go! [Laughs]
It’s refreshing to hear real talk about this hot topic. Folks are really growing tired of this tired ass corporate formula that’s infected hip hop.

Lol @ “Fruit Snack Rap”
How can a gang of white boys tell a n*gga what’s hot?
_____________________________________________________
And they think they really understand Black people and Black culture too just because they got a few Black friends and watch BET all day… SMH
They can enjoy it but what they don’t understand is that (*truth be told) it wasn’t meant for them…
He’s got a point.
Uncle Face!
I love it….but he could have said soulja boy was garbage….youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…ugggggggggggg
I thinks its because real hiphop has become a niche market, Why make put out music for 13 percent of the population “us” not even counting the people that bootleg. When the rest of the country buys that kiddy hiphop.
Face’ has a point. Several. I’ve been trying to put into words what alot of the stuff that the radio is doing to the artform but he hit it right on the head. I feel like when Nas said hip hop was dead he meant exactly what ‘Face just said because rap is alive and thriving and I think alot of young artists grew up on rap and not hip hop. I will be honest and say that me being born in the 80’s I didnt have the privilege to have the feeling that people had to hear the Run DMC’s, the Rakim’s, and all the real hip hop when it first came out. Yet because I love the music I had to go back just like I had to discover Stevie Wonder and any other legendary artist. I do kno that when I listen to Reasonable Doubt it feels a little different than Tha Carter I. Both of them are in my top 5 as far as albums but I see the difference between the two. I see the difference between a lyricist and a rapper. The difference between hip hop and rap is evident. Hip hop artists are modern day poets like Langston Hughes yet rap artist dont talk about much but they are equally as talented. Its like comparing Alicia Keys to Beyonce. Alicia is a cl*****ically trained and has deep meaningful music, yet Bey makes good music and has the hottest songs.Which one is better? Not a fair question because they’re different.
Mister Mister Scarface is right.
that’s why i sit alone in my four cornered room staring at candles.
I LIKE SCARFACE. HE’S AN ORGINAL.
can i at least still hear “tat tat tatted up”, and “take a flick, flick, flick, they don’t know what I’m doin’ ya e ya e yeah.” also the joint I’ma do me, I’ma do me.”
love them joints
Uh.. aight Face….
If they ever put money behind Wale or groups like Rock City, they would change the game completely.
Its the return of a real *****…
Yes, he was right on point with this and I have always loved me some Scarface, he’s a beast. He is so outspoken and don’t give a damn what anyone thinks. I know if he ever came back, he’d shut it down. It’s almost like he was before his time along with all the other TRUE artist who used to make TRUE music whether it be R&B or Hip Hop! Love the comment he made on Jay as well! Get em’ face!!!
@shavondenise… very good point. I made a similar one but bossip didnt post it, glad yours got thru.
and your question is easy… it Alicia Keys! lol
I put it like this rap songs come out and are hot for a min, and fade out with the next hot record. Hip Hop sticks with you, you raise your kids on it. You wear it out, you know all the words, it cultured… and it doesnt come with a dance!
I don’t hate rap/hip-hop.I even download some stuff…but I would’nt miss MOST of it should the style disappear.There does’nt need to be a central “czar” who clears what’s good & what sucks.Just a general raising of consciousness by the buyers of the music.Yeah I know…TALL ORDER.Clearly the reporter sought to take advantage of Scarface’s mildly annoyed state to find out who he would CENSOR.To his credit-he did’nt take the bait.I’m sure EVERY rapper-especially the commercially successful ones-have a tune…OR FIVE…that they kinda’ cringe at in retrospect. Probably won’t happen…but call me when ACTUAL BANDS re-emerge.
‘Til then-I’ll just spin my BROTHERS JOHNSON…CONFUNKSHUN…STEELY DAN…P-FUNK…THE TIME.
HE,S SO REAL.
@shavondenise:
Agreed.My frame of reference goes a little farther back than yours…but you hit it.
@ shavondenise:
What you are saying is right on point! I do notice that when I listen to certain hip-hop records, expecially those of the 80’s and 90s’, I feel different. Mostly all of those artists from those eras of hip-hop made it worth listening to. Hip-hop is nothing like it used to be.
PREACH SHAVONDENISE!!!!
I’ve been reading this site for info and laughs for over a year now… Will someone please tell me what “SMH” stands for…?
Now Scarface comes from the second generation of rap…the 90s, when he put the south on the map! But he grew up listening to the origins of this thing, like myself, and from that comes a respect and understanding in moving music forward but keeping in touch with the roots of the hip hop game.
The BS played now is all about money, not the art form. Hip Hop was a vehicle to drive home thoughts and visions of our community. Well thats all gone now!
But in all fairness I dont expect a 15 yr old, who all they know is Lil Wayne and Beyonce, to be cognizant of what good music sounds like unless you hear it growing up because your parents played it. If you dont have an ear for good music then yeah souljah boy is what your bombarded with and you think its the best.
But once your exposed to better music, and different forms around the world then we can talk about what real music is all about, but until then you show me a person who thinks this “dumb you down” noise is the ***** and I’ll show you a fool!
Guru, Pete Rock & CL, Rakim, KRS-1, EPMD, RunDMC…thats Hip Hop for me. These rappers puttin out songs that have a dance to it are garbage. Soulja Boy..yeah right. (EPMD gets a p***** because Stezo set it OFF in You gots to Chill.
I’m in my 30s so I remember running home from grade school in the mid 80s to watch Video Music Box in its early days to get the latest about Rakim, Run DMC, Stetsasonic, Whodini, GrandMaster Flash, Kurtis Blow, Kool Moe Dee, etc. There is a marked difference between then and now. As far as I’m concerned, the golden era of hip-hop died with Biggie in 1997.
He Said it All! I was told by a Radio DJ years ago that they are trying to Kill Black Music Because Black people don’t buy records!
They promote this ignorance to our children and the World as “Black Music”. Ignorant, mysogynistic, and sexist! That is not Black music!!
The best Black music whether it be Rap or R&B CAN’T get on the Radio! Rappers with a Conscience can’t get on the Radio. HELL, Nas and The Roots can’t get on the friggin Radio!! We need to support Good Music with our $$ and demand respect on the airwaves. Then maybe we can clean this up! YES WE CAN. WE MUST! It’s past time for Personal Responsibility and for the MEDIA to RESPECT BLACK PEOPLE AND our ART!
It’s funny that we suckled and raised their kids, built this Country, and created damn near everything in it with no credit, and WE are not portrayed as the s*****s of the Earth!!
PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE! And B Responsible!!
I’m far from old, but today’s rap just doesn’t do it for me. Yeah, I’ll shake my azz at a club, no question. But the expectation that the music will inspire my mind and heart just isn’t there like before.
@ Aunt Viv….no you didnt dig up Video Music Box!
P.S. The “Rap” industry, just like the car industry is being told, via lack of sales, that your product is poop and there better products out there and we’re going to support them.
And the gov’t aint gonna bail your ***** out!
I have been on this subject for a while, i’ve been saying that hiphop is a big as joke right now, and the people buying into the likes of Young Berg, lil scrappy, soulja boy, flo-rida, t-pain who is betta behind the scene doing production all the rest of them one album wonders, none of their songs match even close to brand nubians, de la soul, eric B and rakim, KRS1, Pac, Big, Black Sheep, Big daddy Kane, Dre, Nas, Jay Z, outkast, remember Southernplayalisticadillacmusik, illmatic, paid in full, wolf in sheeps clothing. Rap is supposed to follow the cl*****ic act and become better but no we allow these fools to tell us their jewellery is hot, the more colours the more desgins the better, theire house is nice and their half nakeed fake ***** women are beautiful. Do we seriouly believe in the borrowed rides, fake bought breats, juiced up thighs, borrwed houses, borrwed jewellery mean more than lyrical content. If we continue to buy this ***** none talent rapper will just keep appearing and selling us stuff that is not good enough, people pls we have the power to stop and demand great music, to challenge the artist to bring out quality over quantity.
Do we stop to even listen to there words talking about “wait till you see my *****”, or “superman that ho” got kids singing that all over the place corrupting our minds, disrespecting our bodies, spreading their wild wet dreams for us to buy into. Hold a rapper accountable, now when real talent comes along guess what they don’t sell because we have such stupid ***** songs making it to number 1 by being on so many singles lil wayne and then makes a million on his album, making it on magzine covers which used to be about the most talent rappers getting heard, there is no challenge to be better just which bigger house can a rent for the video which borrwed jewellery could i show, how many rings tone number 1 could i get and we are busy buying into that *****. I choose not to buy crap. If we don’t take a stand you will be the same people complain what has happened to hip hip where did it all go wrong.
If you love hip hop you wouldn’t endorse the crap coming out
@ eveinthegarden,
Gurl, I sure did lol! What you know about that? U here in NYC? Do you remember New York Hot Traxx with Carlos de Jesus?
Sirus Radio changed my life
I don’t hate rap/hip-hop.I even download some stuff…but I would’nt miss MOST of it should the style disappear.There does’nt need to be a central “czar” who clears what’s good & what sucks.Just a general raising of consciousness by the buyers of the music.Yeah I know…TALL ORDER.Clearly the reporter sought to take advantage of Scarface’s mildly annoyed state to find out who he would CENSOR.To his credit-he did’nt take the bait.I’m sure EVERY rapper-especially the commercially successful ones-have a tune…OR FIVE…that they kinda’ cringe at in retrospect.

‘Til then-I’ll just spin my BROTHERS JOHNSON…CONFUNKSHUN…STEELY DAN…P-FUNK…THE TIME.
^^^^^^^^^^^
Boy whachu know bout Brothers Johnson!!!!
I’m so glad there are more old heads on this site – I’m 32.The kiddies have ran this place into the ground…
Rap is some thing you do, Hip Hop is some thing you live.
HIP HOP WILL NEVER DIE.
Tell em Face!
By the way Face new CD is off tha chain, he spittin some realness…
I couldn’t get thru the first paragraph Face. Say no more dawg I just told my dude the other day the same exact *****. All that soulja boy, young berg, dumb ***** rap they play on the radio is garbage. Real rap ***** dont get no holla from the radio station.
“BROTHERS JOHNSON…CONFUNKSHUN…STEELY DAN…P-FUNK…THE TIME.” REAL TALK! Lety’s not forget Rick James, Stevie wonder, and Kurtis Blow. What yall know about MANDRILL??????
Im trying to think back…what (who) started us on this fruitsnack road? I think it was Hammer. No disrespect..you’d be ready to have a damn heartattack on the dance floor when ‘Lets get it started’ came on but he was the first real crossover I remember. Him and Young MC with that Bust a Move song…
” The ***** went from Eric B and Rakim to fuddy duddy and the tennis shoe clique [laughs]. Now videos are about drinking champagne, show as much jewellery and ride in all the fu*king cars. ”
Well said! Those of us who came up in the 80’s got to experience the realness while these kids today are being force-fed this “Fruit snack rap” bullsh$t. Time to start making changes and supporting real hip hop and not this corporate children’s rap!
His big ***** would have to make a reference to food. LOL He better quit worrying about what other people are saying, and worry about what he is eating. He has diabetes, but he darn sure does not look like he has altered his eating habits.
Naw…born and raised West Coast Viv!

I can see where you’re coming from , Ma.
At first I was going to say that it started when MTV started endorsing us, but that’s not true. BADBOY(post Biggie) opened the gates to bubblegum rap/ videos hoes/ minstrel rap….
@ eveinthegarden..Will Smith started it lol
When “getting jiggy with it” came out white people lost there minds
@eveinthegarden
I Love Guru! I used to LOVE Gang Starr and I still listen to them! Remember M***** Appeal? That was the joint. On a regular, I listen to old school hip-hop. I miss it.
@eve,
I’m not sure about Hammer (even though his outfits were pure comedy) but maybe Young MC.
There have always been more light-hearted, more comedic rappers throughout the game (Fat Boyz, Kid n’ Play), but to me there’s a difference between comedy and light-heartedness and BUFFOONERY. That’s what we mostly hear nowadays…
Over 30 heads stand up!
@moi….BadBoy really? Was it that late in the day?
Im thinking back to Kwame with that polkadot bullsh*t 1/2 rapping & singing Onleee U…
@ Tip,
Gang Starr was the TRUTH!! Primo’s beats were always bananas!
I know yall wanna slam Hammer, but if you go back and listen to some old Hammer, the music was tight… The lyrics said something, hell Hammer even told you to pray in order to make it today….
I think the music took this turn after 2Pac p*****ed… then Master P came with his crew… so on and so on… No hate tho, I like that old Master P… But record execs are the greedy fools who *****’d Hip Hop…
I’ll never forget meeting the head of “Urban ” music for Sony.. He was some fast talkin wannabe Italian Mafia type dude with his feet up on the desk, talkin about ” so let’s sell some records”…. I’m thinkin’, this FOOL knows NOTHING about Hip Hop… Sad.
Over 30 heads stand up!
^^^^^^^^^^^
Meeeeeeeow!
lol
got damn homey my mind playing tricks on me!
@eve,
um…confession…Kwame was my crush…i think i had a poster of him from Right On! magaine…
Just my opinion! I think that the lyrics are just put in to compliment the music, which is of a manufactured type (ring tones, beats that you can buy online, etc)when music in the past started with a feeling or a theme *****ociated with the song. Nowadays its more about the beat than the content. Also as a kidd I was exposed to all forms of music. Todays youth for the most part only accepts rap music as relevant. “When speaking with people who dont acknowledge other art forms besides rap, I then realize that without expanding their arena that they play in, that they are growing as an artist or as an individual. Therfore they don’t have the capability to make fresh, new, great music.
@ Tip…mannnnn…I still remember riding the strip with my girls blasting “Check out my Melody”. Marley Marl was a genius back in the day.
@ LOL at that Kwame reference… LOL Kid n Play, Fresh Prince…. but ya know what, them cats did have some great songs, you can’t front… I think their biggest contribution was to express that you can be yourself, and have your own style… *****’ what ya heard… ya know? We need Hip Hop like that also…
We also need that Grand Puba/Brand Nubian vibe, Big Daddy Kanes, and Kool G Raps… Public Enemies and Paris ( Ice Cube’s Cousin not that *****) KAM and Boogie Down Productions…
@Aunt Viv
I am with you about the rap music of today. It just doesn’t do it for me. I don’t invest in cd’s like I used to invest in c*****ette tapes back in the day. Now, like you, I will shake my ***** in the club off of the music that is playing, but it doesn’t stimulate my mind like hip-hop used to!
MC Hammer revisionist history is a sign of the times. Hip Hop has become so wack that nowadays people will try to convince you that Hammer wasn’t actually all that bad after all.
I don’t think Hip Hop has been the same since Awsome Dre and the Hardcore Bunch fell off.
“I ain’t no joke, I used to let the mic smoke
Now I slam it when I’m done and make sure it’s broke
When i’m gone no one gets on cuz I won’t let
*****ody press up and mess up to scene I set
I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder damn
But think about it then you’ll understand
I’m just an addict addicted to music
Maybe it’s a habit, I gotta use it
Even if it’s jazz on the quiet storm
I hook a beat up convert it in a hip-hop form
Write a rhyme in graffitti in every show you see me in
Deep concentration cuz I’m no comedian
Jokers are wild if you wanna be tame
I treat you like a child then you’re gonna be named
Another enemy, not even a friend of me
Cuz you’ll get fried in the end if you pretend to be
Competing cuz I just put your mind on pause
And I can beat you when you compare my rhyme wit yours
I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stun
Remember me, the one you got your idea from
But soon you start to suffer but you only get rougher
When you start to stutter that’s when you had enuff of
Biting it, I make you choke, you can’t provoke
You can’t cope, you should of broke cuz I ain’t no joke”
Aahhhhhh those were the days….

MC Hammer revisionist history is a sign of the times. Hip Hop has become so wack that nowadays people will try to convince you that Hammer wasn’t actually all that bad after all.
Well in comparison to that deep south ***** that p*****es for rap nowadays, MC Hammer’s ***** borders on genius.
@ohhhhhhh dayum Viv…you liked that wopheaded,sleepy eyed nicca? lol. Truth, I had me some polkadot ish too.
I think rap turned into bottle poppin material bs with BadBoy, no doubt.
WAIT A MINUTE…tip/moi/viv..whatyallknow about STETSASONIC??!
This story’s funny
I met this girl, and she had money
In vast abundance
Goo-goo gobs, I mean redundance
Her eyes were hazel
Her dress was suede, her voice was nasal
I found her so fly
But for the life of me, I didn’t know why!

@eveinthegarden
Yes mam – certainly. Kwame and others were only representing how we rocked our house/block parties and what not.Fun w/o gettting shot, just living life.It was Puffy who told these kids they weren’t ***** if they didn’t have money, fly cars, kicks, shady present/pasts, etc etc etc.That evolved into the post 1995 era where everybody started rapping for profit and not because they wanted to. The genre has turnes into focusing on sales and not the music. And we all know white folk LOVE watching *****s tap dance…
Now can they “Face” that!
@ NIKKI UNDERWOOD
CAN WE TALK OFF THIS ???
If your old enough you also remember when white people didn’t have phat *****es, but they put something in the milk, which also made them think they had soul. So they began to learn how to dance, even rap, after that they started to get cologen injections to increase their lip size. Next comes Bo Derek was sporting braids. You will soon begin to see afros on white people, they will change their names to Raheem, Sheniqua and lil ray ray. I saw this coming, if you dont believe me ask Negrodamus.
@TOdamtrill~
No u didnt say the MCM suit!lol…and the TROOPS!
no..no…Ima take you wayyyyyyyyyy back. Whatchu know about some *****e Cowboy by the JONZUN CREW…?!?

Man!
add some cl*****ic RZA beats to the mix.Man that boy’s beats were hypnotizing…
@ Aunt Viv,
I agree 100% I used to go home to watch Rap City when it had all genres of hip hop including underground. Hip hop has always had some fruit snack rappers, but they were never in the forefront and you would almost be embarrased to admit that you liked them. For every Kid-n-play you had a Tribe Called Quest and you could party to one and feel enlightened by the other. It wasn’t like now, where they seem to manufacture bs just for a ringtone. The songs are so lame that you don’t even miss the artist. Everyone I know had “this is why I’m hot” as there ringtone but noone I know bought MIMS album. As a female I definitely miss the real female artist with lyrics that didn’t only talk about fu*king some guy for stacks. Give me MC Lyte, B.O.S.S., and Bahamadia any day over Trina since she’s the only one not in jail!

Yall are making me nostaglic and Brown Sugar sad up in here. Hip Hop really has changed since I first met her in ‘82.

@Jaybird,
Co-sign. There was more variety. You could kick it D.A.I.S.Y. age style with De La Soul, JB’s, Tribe or get your Black Power on with X-Clan and Public Enemy, or practice the latest dance moves with Kid n’ Play or Heavy D. You had a choice, take ‘em all or none of them. But if I liked it, you best believe I went to the Wiz or Sam Goody with my Christmas money to buy the c*****ette tape or CD. I haven’t bought music now in years. Sorry but it’s true. It’s harder to part with my money for some crap.
You people should listen to the original rapper, Hank Williams. Now that’s real talent.
Besides Kwame, growing up I also had HUGE HUGE HUGE crushes on Big Daddy Kane, Large Professor, and Lord Jamar from Brand Nubian. I’m sure there others, let me think…
I was the c*****ette tape queen!! I was notorious for buying the singles that had 2 version of 2 songs on one side. My grandma still has some of tapes I recorded off the radio. I still remember when I got the “one more chance” single with both versions. I think I burned a whole in it I played it so much!
@Viv…bumpin’ the car tape deck with stock b***** and treble adjustments…lol…Ima give you one more for the road..

Now the RADIO is forcing bullsh#t down our throats…
Think about what songs you’re hearing on the radio right now!!!
You can count on hearing the same 8 songs (some hot, others NOT!) on rotation EVERY MOTHER F#CKING hour….
Got me liking songs I don’t even like but after a while (*via “radio programming) some of those same songs have grown on me… SMH and
MOST OF THESE RAPS KATS TODAY ARE STR8 UP *****ES AND TALK BEEF ON WAX AND RHYME ABOUT ***** THEY AINT EVEN GOT–IT’S WATERED DOWN AND JUST PLAIN SOFT–RAPPERS STAY PERPETUATING THE IMAGERY THESE LABELS PIMP THEM OUT TO LIVE UP TO
SCARFACE SHOULDA MENTIONED WHAT MR. **********NESS #3 a/k/a KANYE WEST HAS DONE TO HIP-HOP NOW..GOT NICCAS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THEY’RE CLOTHES FIT & PRIMPED UP IN THE MIRROR LIKE DIVAS & CRYIN OVER MEANINGLESS *****–LOL
BUT DON’T GET IT TWSITED THO…THAT SHOWS ADVANCEMENT IN THE CULTURE YO–I’M SURE IN THE NEXT 5 YEARS HIP-HOP WILL BE ACCEPTING THE HOMOS NEXT

Take care, I gotta go…

@Aunt Viv
Lord Jamar from Brand Nubian is my HUSBAND! Now HE has SWAGGER! He was so smooth with it. I loved the way that he flowed! On Love me or Leave me Alone, he sounds soooooooo sexy!
You got to understand
I’m a man
That needs forfilling
And if you ain’t with it
Somebody else is willing
You got to
Love me or Leave me Alone!!!!!!!
Oh My!
Big Daady Kane was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo smooth. Like butter…
I hope you all know that I am kidding right?
I agree wholeheartedly…I’m sick of rap because everything sounds the same…somebody needs to throw that autotone away! T-Pain should’ve been the only one using it. I hate listening to the radio…
McHammer didn’t become whack until the Taco Bell commercials, Adams Family and the cartoon show.
I can’t understand why he likes Soldier Boy. That is the epitome of the worst to me.
The music industry as whole is awful and it is sinking.
Houston Stand up! He hit on the spot! Jay Z is real hip hop. Here is my example, I can still listen to Jays 06′ Lost one and feel it like the first time I heard it was yesterday. Also Song cry and I still bump that til this day. But artist like Lil wayne, Lollipop was hot when it first came out but if I turn on the radio and its on..it bugs the hell out of me and I quickly change it…then Kanye West Heartless comes on..and that joint is hott!! LOL…the moral of this story, Jay is hip hop..Wayne is just a rapper.
@chaka1…real talk. When Hammer first came out that nicca was performing out of his VAN. He and his crew came to my highschool to perform at our football pep rally when *****ody knew who they were and Man…that music came on and they started doing that spastic ish climbing out that car and we lost our d@mn minds. Lets get it started..uh oh..uh oh..Lets get it started….Hammer’s first album was untouchable.
@ Slide
That’s so sad but true. You will hate a song, but after they play it 100 times you’ve unintentionally learned the words to a song you hate. I know it happened to me with that Superman song and I hated it. Another thing that I think has killed the artform is the need to come out with an album every few months because if you don’t these kids think you’ve fallen off. Real creativity doesn’t happen in one night, and these new songs sound like they took 10 minutes to write while sitting on the toilet! If you have the misfortune of watching 106 and park the old school joint of the day will be a song from last year! How is that a old school joint?
I agree 100%…..I don’t even like listening to the radio anymore. That Get Silly & Two Step bs makes me MAD. Rap/Hip Hop from the 80’s/90’s was gutter, powerful, had a message. I could rap all the words to Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, Easy E, Tupac, Biggie. I don’t know wth Lil Boosie, DJ Unc and these other cats are saying. DC radio stations blow me but ATL radio stations drive me crazy. They play garbage all day except for T.I., Luda & Jeezy. I believe in them dudes but the rest of that hippady hoppady ish is WACK. Where there do that at?? lol Majic 102.3 old skool R&B
@jaybird
Fam, check this out…
I didn’t like that damn Beyonce Song = Single Ladies (*I liked how she was shaking her a$$ in it though), but after hearing it so many damn times I like it NOW!!!! SMH!!!
*Beyonce Fans, you can kiss my narrow Black a$$ I was expressing my opinion…
And you’re right on the creativity thing = EVERYBODY damn near sounds the same…
But I bet my bottom dollar that somebody from an independent label is gonna come outta nowhere and blow up, ’cause you can’t keep creativity down – somebody (*I don’t know who) is gonna come up with something new & refreshing…
@eve,
OK, completely forgot special Ed and LL Cool J circa “I need Love”. I recently downloaded (legally)some Whodini.
@Tip,
Lord Jamar…mmm mmm mmm he was so damn cute. I just wanted to swing on his locks!
HI SLIDE!!!
BYE SLIDE!!! Sorry I missed you boo
@Chase …so I take it you havn’t did the stanky leg in the past month.
umm, i respect scarface as a rapper, but i’m not sure how you can complain about the rap industry of today and then give props to soulja boy? wouldn’t he be a prime example of “fruit snack rap”?
Death to Flo-rida and Yung Terd.
Let’s stone them!!!
[...] Scarface blasts “wack” rap and the hip hop music industry as a whole: [...]
I think Soulja Boy had a brilliant idea, what he did with it was great. He took what he had and made money from it. If he’s that f*cking smart he’s going to be a billionaire. So I got a lot of respect for Soulja Boy.
========================
His whole theory of FRUIT SNACK rap went out the window and got hit by a car after he said that crap about souljah boy.
Yeah sure he had a hit made some money and got his momma outta the projects and off the ebt card, but seriously can you make some music that has substance? not this bullsh*t about superman a hoe and all this other crap!
Thats why i continue to listen to lupe fiasco
his track DUMB IT DOWN explains it all….
I look at it this way rap goes through evolution periods from Curtis Blow to RUN DMC, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Chuck D to the East/West coast media proclaimed gangsta rap, to Jay/BIG/ Diddy iced out, to the south on the come up to what we have today with Soulja Boy etc…I dont blast Soulja Boy in my ride or nothin, but if you keep hearing it you will begin to get used to it.. At least he aint talking about killing *****ody, and paper chasing all the time…In order for hip hop to evolve it must change….
I remeber when hip hop was powerful and it commanded respect. I would here their lyrics and music, and remember how deep they were in their thinking. But unfortunately many of these new acts are ignorant. They have no understanding of what life is about. They are following exactly the way the man wants them to. This is how you break a group of people down. Reinforce the stereotypes of black men concerned with p*ssy and getting their drink on, and feel like because they have money they have arrived (what a joke). These so called artist have no intelligence or style, they are just puppets for the man. For every dollar they make, the man is takes .99 cents, and once your used up, you become that broke fool you were before. We need to wake up and teach our kids and people to not be so ignorant. The man does not want these ignorant so called artist representing their exclusive products from expensive alcohol to their clothes because they dont want their products *****ociate with a bunch of ignorant rappers. Wake up and see how the rich treat you when you have nothing for them. In their eyes, you beocme the lowlife unintelligent thug that you were before they made money off of you, and when they really get sick of you they reposses your fine luxury cars, houses, and that bling for back taxes. Peace.
the ***** he talkin bout?
Scarface need to sit his azz down!
Scarface is such a hood philosopher, I love him.
So in your own opinion……….who or what rapper *****ed up Hip Hop??
YAH YAH TRiCK!!!!
@ Gotta Know, Shaking My Head
A,I’m like F@#K these corny a@@ rappers, Soulja Boy included. Youth ain’t got nothin to do with intelligence. Look at Cory Gunz!!!
They should not sell studio equipment to un-equipped rappers…..
“I remeber when hip hop was powerful and it commanded respect. I would here their lyrics and music, and remember how deep they were in their thinking. But unfortunately many of these new acts are ignorant”.
Hip hop took an ingorant turn since “95″
@Angry Man: your gravie is cl*****ic…James Evans is the epitome of a real dad…lol
“In order for hip hop to evolve it must change….”
Peace Redd. You right about that BUT is it wrong to want progression as opposed to regression? It seems like we been moving backwards ever since “Self Destruction”………and I don’t think the timing was coincedential. Hip hop today can’t be found on the radio, BET, etc…..that’s Hip Pop. Real hip hop is found underground and away from the top 20 charts……much like it was during it’s beginnings. So, the more things change the more they stay the same.
Well put
His CD is good too!
@Chase …so I take it you havn’t did the stanky leg in the past month.
^^^^^^
LOL
My word ,that HAS to be the countriest song EVER…
Sup Ill..
I feel you…I be telling my friends there need to he a lyricist out that rap about business and corporate ***** like, ” I put a G in a CD (Certificate of Deposit), now thats a true G”…hahahahhahaah…I know thats corny, but I think you know what Im talm bout…hahahahahah
I dont think Scarface likes Soulja Boy as an artist..I think he was saying it in a way to say he respects his hustle. I dont care for SB at all but his dance/song was very marketable and he had folks from all over “cranking dat souja boy and super soaking ho’s” (i feel silly even typing that). Really at the end of the day most people in the industry do what they do for the money…If consumers are going to continue to pay for the fruit snack rap its not going away.
i RESPECT SOULJAH BOY FOR BEiN CREATiVE n MAKiN HiS OWN MUSiC AT A YOUNG AGE..
HE CUd BE ONNA CORNER SOMEWHERE..
iD RATHER SEE HiM 0N MY TV BEiN SUCCESSFUL..
iM N0T GONNA KNOCK HiS HUSTLE….
HEz A KiD FOR PETEz SAKE..
GiVE HiM TiME T0 GR0W UP iNTO HiP HOP n EVOLVE…
How can a gang a white boys tell a ***** whats hot.LMAO
Redd
Uhm, yeah…. that was kinda corny but I get your meaning…LOL. The content in a lot of todays music needs an upgrade but when you have distributors / promoters paying radio stations to give their crap “X” amount of spins we are going to be force fed inferior music (just like we force fed everything else). Yeah, all this stuff will grow on you (but so will a genital wart) when it is played 100x a day on the radio. Commercial jingles grow on me too. I mean, say “expedia” and watch how fast you be singing “dot com” to yourself.
THE TRUE KING OF THE SOUTH! Now quote that, I, KENNEDY said it!
I have always loved Face. He is a teacher and keeps it waayyy to real. He is right though. He is also very underrated.
SCARFACE THE REAL KING OF THE SOUTH!
Scarface simply wanted to say that freemasons run the hip hop industry. If your not down, you wont get spins. All the big record company execs are jews, if you think 50 cent and Jay have money, imagine the people that signs their checks. Get educated people.
Scuse me yall…Im in Nostaglia’s corner. FU-Schnickens….THE FLOW WILL BREAK YOU DOWN..
Scarface is not a legend and he need to sit the hell down. I hate when old skoolrappers try to hate when they are no longer relevant. I don’t give a damn about his opinion.
Scarface.EPMD,ERIC B. & RAKIM, EARLY L.L.
Hell, i still can’t get off them. This new stuff isn’t good, but i’m glad they’re making money!
SCARFACE IS TELLING IT STRAIGHT UP! NO CHASER!
YEP, JEWS STILL OWN RAP!
PACE!
Scarface is still very relevant..especially in my whip and on my ipod…
[HAND CLAPZ!!!!!]
@tiray…
I think thats the illusion. I dont think these rap artists are making money like they perpetrate–just from RAPPING?
i co sign with the face.
Thank god for Scarface. I honestly think that all rap aint bull***** but most of the mainstream stuff is. Soulja Boy is like the 69 boyz w/Whoomp there it is or Tootsie Roll. That ***** was fun to do at the time but now that Im 30 that ***** is totally uncalled for. I pray to GOD, rap changes. I would prefer to here Gosphol Rap than a Young Terd/Tigga song and im a street *****! GIVE US SOMETHING WITH MEANING OR DONT DO THE ***** AT ALL! ***** ALL THESE MAJORS because they literally suck. The radio waters the waves down with this bull***** and we have to listen to it. Thank the lord for HD/Satellite radio.

Interesting that Scarface blamed rap for brainwashing women into thinking its cool to be half-naked, but didn’t blame it for making selling drugs a cool profession. Afterall, all that killin’ he personally does on the mic could be blamed for that. He named himself after a cocaine kingpin. Like Russell Simon talkin’ all that positive bull***** now, after they made their money, he’s part of the problem.
Whose bad for Hip-Hop? Let me name a few. Any and everybody who endorses a violent lifestyle that they themselves abandoned, i don’t care if they are considered legends or not. T

The real problem is that black radio is DEAD. There was a time when the radio stations reflected the community, were part of the community. Now everything is owned by Clear Channel, and the playlist is paid for by record companies who have no loyalty to hip hop, or the art of music at all. The black community attacks rappers on a regular basis, but how many underground albums do you own? how much support do you offer rappers who are not in the mainstream. There are thousands of REAL hip hop artist who never get signed because the record companies are only going to promote the same thing that sold last year. Now is someone comes out sounding like Lil Wayne he will surely get signed, if he has a sound no one has heard before, he’ll be back in his basement studio and slinging records at the local liquor store. As parents it is our responsibility to not only purchase real music and share it with our children, they don’t know any better, but our generation may be the first where the parents and the children are listening to the same music. My 12 year old nephew loves old skool rap because he comes from a family of hip hop junkies who exposed him to. Del the funky…, tribe called quest, black sheep, the alcoholics, RBL Posse, L.O.N.S, mystic journeymen, casual and so on. So when he goes to get new music he’s more attracted to Lupe fiasco than soulja boy.
Let go a lil further,…Jewish run/own, the banks including the Ferderal Reserve, record companies, and the NAACP….
Hip Hop is a part of Black music not the contrary.
I think the whole music industry is mess now artists are not real artists you don’t real talent to be successful. It must Internet because people barely buy music I can understand that because they make lot of money during the 80-90’s now we have our “revenge”.
About Rap music It problably have something do with the popular market now rappers are making music in order to sell worlwide they don’t care about the quality they just want to top the first week sales. That is what destroy real hip hop. Kanye West is not doing hip hop. Ludacris is losing his fanbase because he turned into something different and his last album is a flop.
Scarf’ has a big point when he says that white people are the real owners of “black culture”= stores, magazines, music labels, even clothe lines,clubs,etc….
If you pay attention Black artists are on stage but in the backstage you white or jewish. It sad but true .
The sad part is that it can be turned around so easily. Don’t buy the bull***** music they shove down our throats. Request real artist. Support independent labels (there are still some around). Honestly the black community needs to demand more for our money. Only cater to business who cater to you. Essence magazine is a perfect example. In the beginning they would not run full page beauty ads that featured white models. So advertisers were force to print ads with no models or hire black models for ads to run in black magazines like Essence and Ebony. Just like black people will flock to any business who represent us, we ca do the reverse for businesses who don’t. Perfect example is Tommy Hilfiger, he damn near went out of business when black people stopped buying his clothes, and during Katrina he came on BET and donated what a hundred racks, found out which side his bread was buttered on.
real men don’t wear sparkles on their shirts….I don’t care if it is a $200 t-shirt…..girlymen. Who would date a bro that has been attacked by a be-dazzler!
HE`s right and I quote ” O.J. DID IT !
This is the right thread right ??
Tell Scarface to go eat a *****. now he wanna talk that postitive bull*****. he just mad as hell because his other records didnt sell as much as he would like to. rapping all that old paranoid *****.
i dont like and or support Soulja Boy.
Real Hip Hop died when they casted out De La Soul as hippie rappers. *****z like the gravediggaz, redman before the weed captured his brain. Wu Tang and even Eric B and Rakim. EPMD. and Boss Lady and Sista Souljah
Hip Hop Died in 1989 thus having a revival in 1990-1994. during 1995-96 Hip Hop was on the lifeline and then collapsed on this day in 1997 when two of our greats. Tupac and Biggie died and left the mike open.
ever since then……we sold our souls to booty, jewerly, violence and so forth.
Scarface can suck a *****. go rap some positive ***** and lets see how much you sell. Young Jeezy and Them other punk ***** mother*****ers he rolling with talking about being the head and knowing black music. SMH
Aaaagh it is so refreshing to hear someone actually answer the questions being asked and making sense. Scarface has always been an intelligent, talented and powerful brotha/artist and I am glad that he was given the chance to speak on the BULL ISH that is the music industry today.
everybodys always
hatin on the south.sayin it kiled hip hop.
i wish yalld shut that mess up.
I think Scarface has a point, I believe that he didn’t want to “diss” Soulja Boy so he just said he respects his hustle, I am over 30, 32 as a matter of fact and I really respect the music of the 90’s you had variety,if you wanted to Tootsie roll, u had that, if you wanted to Chill, you had Digable Planets, if you wanted music you can touch and feel you had Nas, nowadays its all about the beat and not the lyrics, my favorite joint of all time is Common’s I Used to love H.E.R. (when he was Common Sense) do yall remember that??? What is happening the old school rappers are getting old and the youth just doesn’t know how to bring “real
hip-hop back.
Easy enough solution. Just don’t buy the crap they try to sell you and watch how ***** changes over night. Black people would be amazed at how far a little solidarity would take us.
They can’t Face the truth, they fake lace the booth, with words untrue so they can keep tainting you
I agree w/Face, 99.999% of today’s music is Pure GARBAGE. Don’t wont to offend but I can’t & don’t really see the Alpha/Omega of Jay-Z’s music either I just don’t find him to be that entertaining period.and SouljaBoy be real that’s the worst ***** I’ve heard since William Hung on American Idol com on Face if you dislike Fruit snack ***** then spit out the whole truth. cant knock S/B hustle but must we be a part of it, DAYM!! He to is also 1 on the biggest exploiter of the Hip-Hop game. Shout out to Aunt Viv “video music box” thats funny, unfortunately originality, concious rap/music, creativity, blue light in a basement type MUSIC & MOOD songs are GONE, LUTHER, MARVIN,TEDDY,ISLEY,MILES JAYE,AVANTE’,PRINCE,EUGENE WILDE, GLENN JONES, JAMES INGRAM,need I go on,
Over 30 heads stand up!

“Walkin’ down the street watchin’ ladies go by watchin’ u…”
Thank you Face, that interview was a breath of fresh *****in air.
You support Soulja Boy but also hate anything that takes away from the art form? Isn’t that a double negative.
Rap is total f*cking bull*****! Bunch of posing no talent gay crap! Rappers are so stupid, dressing like 10 year olds. This is supposed to be cool? No way! It’s f*cking dorky as hell!
“How can a gang of white boys tell a n*gga what’s hot?”
That reminds me of that movie Bamboozled- “Mantan, the new millenial minstrel show… it’s hot… it’s happening..”
How the f@#k is Scarface not relevant to Hip Hop? Thats some idiotic $h!t to say…and that shows how much people do not know about Hip Hop. Like I said before, I don’t care if Soula Boy is a kid or not!! He is WACK AS HELL!!! V.I.C. WACK AS HELL!!! Anybody Mr. Collipark signs…WACK AS HELL!!! Stop making excuses for these uncreative “artists.” If you suck, you suck…point blank. There are too many wack rappers to name, and they ALL have that one ringtone rap. THE ONLY THING THAT GETS RECITED NOW-A-DAYS FROM A SONG IS ITS HOOK!!! That is WACK!!! Why have three verses if you aren’t saying $h!t. Remember when you had to rewind a line in a verse because it made your jaw drop. Thats hip hop. Thats dope. Thats creativity.
“I’m the verbal spit Smif-Wessun- I unload wit

Royce da 5′9
BOOM(real hip hop)
I think he is correct This crap started back in Ja Rule’s reign I called the radio station to request something I heard on the internet, they told me we play what is on our list. What ever happened to request lines? Thats why i listen to old school music and make my kids listen to it. Not pluggin’ it but PANDORA’s website is all i listen to everyday. Strawberry Letter 23 nice.
thats why i love being from TEXAS….
***I normally have alot to say. . .but Face just said it.
Thnak God this dude is still around.
*FYI* He’s refering toward sites like BOSSIP toward the end.
I’m almost 30 and I agree with almost everything Shavondenise said, except for the comparisons with Beyonce/Alicia keys etc… however what should be discussed and compared is time-fillers vs. substance/content. in the golden era (80s & 90s) there were a variety of types of hip-hop music/rap so there is no sugarcoating this subject, hip-hop is in critical condition, but through the grace of god there are still artists that are still putting out good music and much love for the new artists putting out good stuff like Wale, kids in the hall, etc. (yeah I said it!) because they are re-visiting the substantial rap art-form that HIP-HOP gave birth to. Lastly the big picture is $. Sell out for $ is tempting, ask yourself would you put out some Bull@#*% for riches?

@EVEIN THE GARDEN!
YOu are correct!
(at least the kids from the hood are making something)~i.e.~ anyone that suge knight dealt with!
At the same line, alot of these kids ARE thinking business,and HAVE been saving and gaining knowledge.
LIL Wayne when back to college..(Univ. of Houston Downtown, and has been a working fool. So alot of them are gettin the biz down.
Ringtone hip hop is weird, but the money comes in.
Let’s just try to take rap from the jews.
Infortunately, blacks aren’t smart enough to know that there’s power in money and where they spend it! BLacks don’t trust other blacks enough to use money as power!
think
I feel what ‘Face is sayin. I’m from NY and you got a ***** like Crooked I who’s from Long Beach killing it lyrically, talking ’bout real *****. His metaphors are crazy. Paid dues for mad years yet he’s struggling to get known. Then you got *****s like Soulja Boy talking ’bout, “She gotta a donk” and it’s easily marketed. Come on, what’s wrong with that.
He’s talking the truth…..finally someone did!!!!!
clearly, the man doesn’t like jews
It has nothing to do w/Jews JB perse. But more to do w/Blacks controlling OUR industry…..
@ eveinthegarden MARRY ME! lol you’re the realest babe.
@ Circa 81
what the hell are you doing in my CD box? Do you like Lupe Fiasco? and have you checked out MURS for president, I think this is his best album
@realitycheck~
lol…you feelin’me huh? Whatcha know about silk suits, gucci handbags and blue diamonds?
True story Scarface! I have never listened to the same cd over and over again as I used to listen to Wu-Tang, Mobb Deep’s older albums and all that goooood ish! I miss it, I seem to never get that same feeling with the new songs out today
I agree 100%, and that’s why I don’t listen to that garbage. I only listen to the old school ish that used to have a message. New Hip-Hop is a conspiracy to dumb down the urban listener. Hip-Hop is so damn influential and the artist that get attention are ignorant.
I heard that Scarface!!! Say that!!
It’s been 22 long hard years and still strugglin
Survival got me buggin, but I’m alive on arrival
I peep at the shape of the streets
And stay awake to the ways of the world cause ***** is deep
A man with a dream with plans to make C.R.E.A.M.
Which failed; I went to jail at the age of 15
A young buck sellin drugs and such who never had much
Trying to get a clutch at what I could not touch
The court played me short, now I face incarceration
Pacin’, going up state’s my destination
Handcuffed in back of a bus, 40 of us
Life as a shorty shouldn’t be so rough
But as the world turns I learned life is Hell
Living in the world, no different from a cell
Everyday I escape from Jakes givin chase, sellin base
Smokin bones in the staircase
Though I don’t know why I chose to smoke sess
I guess that’s the time when I’m not depressed
But I’m still depressed, and I ask what’s it worth?
Ready to give up so I seek the Old Earth
Who explained working hard may help you maintain
to learn to overcome the heartaches and pain
We got stickup kids, corrupt cops, and crack rocks
and stray shots, all on the block that stays hot
Leave it up to me while I be living proof
To kick the truth to the young black youth
But shorty’s running wild, smokin sess, drinkin beer
And ain’t trying to hear what I’m kickin in his ear
Neglected for now, but yo, it gots to be accepted
That what? That life is hectic
THATS THE REAL ISH…
All he said is the truth but could it be that rap has to die. Jazz went through the same thing. The new generations added new aspects and the old heads hated it. They argued about what was Jazz and if new forms could be considered J*****. Jazz went from the top and crashed. Yea it’s still being made but Jazz isn’t popular music now.
I’m just curious about what we’re going to do after rap. Maybe it needs to die because 90% of it is garbage and the other 10% doesn’t get radio play.
Most of the modern rappers on the radio are shuckin and jiving, stupid *****es!
WE LOVE SCARFACE, WE LOVE SCARFACE
girl you know iiiiiii luv uuuuuu
Face is the TRUTH I’ve been listening to him since study hall 89′ with Willie D and Bushwick Bill… whats crazy is his new ***** “high powered” is hotter then anything these new school cats could dream of putting out…
When I started listening to Hip Hop people put their life and soul into each track because it was all we had.. we didn’t bling or make it rain back then.. we back packed, graffed, dee-jayed and danced thats all we had and thats what the music was about the culture of hip hop there was no industry every song or new group was there to elevate the art form help it grow…
Now a days all you have are artists that want to “get theres” by rapping, live off what we old heads built like a parasite by trying to sound like the next idiot on the radio. Are there new school rappers that get it, of course but they are a minority in an industry filled with close but no cigar-***** rappers that want to be the next so and so and not the first them…
I love this music I always will but the “industry” has taken a form of music that was for the people by the people and made it into a vehicle to sell ringtones, clothing lines, and a million other products…ie “fruit snack” rap.. I miss the old days and like Wu Tang often wonder:
” Can it be that it was all so simple then…. “
SMH blame the south
@ YESSUR!
Absolutely!
HIs new stuff makes mostof the hi hop sound sophomore!
think
*****s themselves is the problem. Dont act like yall dont know what I’m talking about either. This generation of “hip hop” artists makes no attempt at creativity whatsoever. They just follow the my*****e formula where you take something that someone else worked their fingers to the bone on and use it as your own as an expression of individuality.
I love Face. He stays in rotation in my car.
[...] Read Interview Here [...]
Ah, once again my friend
Not a trend for then

OMG this is the BEST SH*T I’VE READ ALL WEEK! I almost caught the Holy Ghost reading that. You better school ‘em Face! This “rap” ***** is beyond wack. Can we PLEASE get back to real hip-hop? Real hip-hop scares white folk so they want to keep us dumbed down with a bunch of ignorance and poison. Here’s some real hip-hop fo yo *****:

Candle sticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned
Four walls just staring at a *****

My mothers always stressing I aint living right
But I aint going out without a fight
See, everytime my eyes close
I start sweatin, and blood starts comin out my nose
Its somebody watchin the ak
But I dont know who it is, so Im watchin my back
I can see him when Im deep in the covers
When I awake I dont see the mother*****er
He owns a black hat like I own
A black suit and a cane like my own

But ***** that *****, theres a ***** trying to kill me
Im pumping in the clip when the wind blows
Every twenty seconds got me peeping out my window
Investigating the joint for traps
Checking my telephone for taps
Im staring at the woman on the corner
Its *****ed up when your mind is playing tricks on you
Verse two: willie d
I make big money, I drive big cars
Everybody know me, its like Im a movie star
But late at night, somethin aint right
I feel Im being tailed by the same suckers head lights
Is it that fool that I ran off the block
Or is it that ***** last week that I shot
Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars
Thought he had caine but it was gold medal flour
Reach under my seat, grabbed my popper for the suckers
Aint no use to be lying, I was scareder than a mother*****er
But theyre laughing at pow pies and buried that quick
If its going down lets get this ***** over with
Here they come, just like I figured
I got my hand on the mother*****ing trigger
What I sawll make your ***** start giggling
Three black, crippled and crazy senior citizens
I live by the sword
I take my boys everywhere I go
Because Im paranoid
I keep looking over my shoulder and peeping around corners
My mind is playing tricks on me
Verse three: scarface
Day by day its more impossible to cope
I feel like Im the one thats doing dope
Cant keep a steady hand because Im nervous
Every sunday morning Im in service
Playing for forgiveness
And trying to find an exit out of the business
I know the lord is looking at me
But yet and still its hard for me to feel happy
I often drift while I drive
Havin fatal thoughts of suicide
Bang and get it over with
And then Im worry-free, but thats bull*****
I got a little boy to look after
And if I died then my child would be a *****
I had a woman down with me
But to me it seemed like she was down to get me
She helped me out in this *****
But to me she was just another *****
Now shes back with her mother
Now Im realizing that I love her
Now Im feeling lonely
My mind is playing tricks on me
Verse four: bushwick bill
This year halloween fell on a weekend
Me and geto boyz are trick-or-treating
Robbing little kids for bags
Till an old man got behind our *****
So we speeded up the pace
Took a look back and he was right before our face
Wed be in for a squab no doubt
So I swung and hit the ***** in his mouth
He was going down, we figured
But this was no ordinary *****
He stood about six or seven feet
Now, thats the ***** Id been seeing in my sleep
So we triple-teamed on him
Dropping them mother*****in bs on him
The more I swung the more blood flew
Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared, too
Then I felt just like a fiend
It wasnt even close to halloween
It was dark as ***** on the streets
My hands were all ***** from punching on the concrete
God damn, homie
My mind is playing tricks on me
I been saying this shyt for years. Hip-hop has been falling off for some time. Soulja boy or whatever the hell his name is a smart young dude but he needs to stay in his lane with certain people. He shouldnt even say Ice-T’s *****in name. Granted Ice-T has never been confused with Hova or Common on a lyrical tip but he was a moving force in hip-hop when Soulja boy was a sperm in his pops nut sack! I am with Scarface on this one. ***** this bubble gum shyt. I thought we got rid of this shyt when Hammer fell off!!! LMAO
And…..(with 5 dots) – SMH heh had that going in the ride this morn , haha and some fools amongst here say that face isnt a legend – priceless..
Face forgot about his OWN lyrics from the Geto Boys days….
I started small time,
dope game, cocaine,
pushin rocks on the block,
I’m never broke man,
Sportin’ jewelry and da ish that came from rollin hard,
ya try to stun me,
you’ll get served with no regard,
boy don’t test me cuz I’m tired of teachin lessons,
so ***** f…k u and that b..s,, ya stressin,
cuz it ain’t nuttin but the money flowin in this camp,
and if you short then you’ll forever wear a stamp,
so watch yo back and prepare for the hit man,
black for black where they at, don’t take no ish man,
you’ll be bucked up, bumped off , no trace,
on the for-illa my my nicca, just call me Scarface
it’s true he’s right and I’m white but I know Lil’ Wayne is a retard and Def Jam/Interscope and Bad Boy (LOL) are all owned By Warner and do what one white man says!
I’m going wayyyyyyyyyy back…
“Broken gl***** everywhere
people *****in’ in the station u know they just don’t care.
Can’t take the smell, can’t take the noise got no money to move out I guess I got no choice.
Rats in the front room, roaches in the back.
Junkies in the alley with the baseball bats.
I tried to get away but I couldn’t get far ’cause the man with the tow truck reposs’d my car!”
“Don’t push me ’cause I’m close to the edge.
I’m trying not to lose my head.
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from goin’ under.
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from goin’ under.”

Scarface need to lose about 200 lbs and make a hit song before he can even begin to speak on RAP. This ***** aint make a hit track in decades. He look like a slob, sloppy ghetto grandpa trying to still hang on by dressing like a 15 year old. Hang it up. Stop hating do something constructive like coach a little league or basketball camp or something because it’s GAME OVER for your old *****. HIP HOP is youth orientated music. Get out the way.
I keep telling y’all over and over again…
…HIP-HOP IS DEAD!!!!!!
We just refuse to bury it!

Good Evening, Kigali!
@circa 81,
That you mentioned Souls of Mischeif and Organized Konfusion, I will give you props. I love your list but these are special favorites of mine. Souls of Mischief and Pharcyde was one of my first concernts ever at the House of Blues. I was like 14 years old. Ha.
@1 tru diva,
Nice to see you hun. I hope you are enjoying my new gravie. I figured if I was goig to be spitting such hotness that often hurts the soul of the trife black female and her enablers, I might as well have some beauty to soften the blow. Hee hee.
***** hell see, I just changed my gravie and now it is putting my other screen name. Ok guys, UKGully is Kigali.
@ Kigali–
Actually–I was LOVING your subtitle to your screen name!!
454,455,456…
My arms are about drained after doing push ups for most of the evening! I guess I can stop now since my last lover was intimidated by my guns(my biceps)
Good evening ladies! I will join you for a brief discussion then I have to spend at least a half hour in the jacuzzi relaxing before I lay down for the night!
How are ya doing?
**whistling as I walk through a dark cemetary**
**wondering aloud**
Now–what black women that I know engages in behavior that conflicts with their beliefs???
Just about——–all of ‘em!!
Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is a really cute baby!!
Well I declare!
456 push ups??????????????
Damn!!!
I thought I was gettin’ my shine on by doing a “few” sit ups each day!!
I feel sooooooooooo guilty! Here you are–the epitome of good health and I give up sooooo easily.
**reaches for cigarettes**
I haven’t seen Daywalker in a minute but then again, I’m not on as much as I used to be.
Is he MIA????
Did you kill ‘em off???
You can tell me; I’ll keep it ‘tween us!!
Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cognitive dissonance–
Isn’t that like–believing in God or PROFESSING to believe in God yet practicing Satanic rituals or something like that?
Diva hit me up on my*****e and I can tell ya more! Things have been rather strange on here as of late so I am hesitant to post certain info on here out of fear of others getting ahold of it!
Or——-
(for our eeerday peeps)
“he loves me, he loves me not!”
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whats the address?
Oh, shoot! I think they’ve blocked us from visiting My*****e here.
Hold on……… lemme try.
They’re blockin My*****e worse than a linebacker blocking for a quarterback!
Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE TRUE KING OF THE SOUTH HAS SPOKEN.
Daywalker225xxxx and I will add you as a friend
OK. I’ll check it from my laptop.
Is your account marked private?
No my account is public b/c I have nothing to be ashamed of. If people dont like me they cant keep it moving because I stay comfortable in my own skin!
What is your page Diva?
Peace to all! My eyes are getting heavy and my arms are still burning from the workout. Until next time….
“Everybody sound the same, commercialize the game
Reminiscin’ when it wasn’t all business
If it got where it started
So we all gather here for the dearly departed
Hip hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became a man then a mobster
If the guys let me get my last swig of Vodka
R.I.P., we’ll donate your lungs to a rasta
Went from turntables to mp3s
From “Beat Street” to
commercials on Mickey D’s
From gold cables to Jacobs
From plain facials to Botox and face lifts
I’m lookin’ over my shoulder
It’s about eighty *****z from my hood that showed up
And they came to show love
Sold out concert and the doors are closed shut”
sorry, that was “hip hip is dead” by nas
The best Black music whether it be Rap or R&B CAN’T get on the Radio! Rappers with a Conscience can’t get on the Radio. HELL, Nas and The Roots can’t get on the friggin Radio!! We need to support Good Music with our $$ and demand respect on the airwaves. Then maybe we can clean this up! YES WE CAN. WE MUST! It’s past time for Personal Responsibility and for the MEDIA to RESPECT BLACK PEOPLE AND our ART!
—————————————–
Got that right. I go out and hunt down no name folks even on My*****e. Ica n actually listen to it without worrying about hearing something offensive.
That’s the difference between now and the past.
We don’t have balance. I don’t even listen to black radio stations anymore. I hear more black artist on white stations than the blacks.
People keep saying Soulja Boy and guys like him are harmless. Sorry I WORK in teh school system and you have no idea how many black boys are so hellbent on outselling those guys. Instead of being doctors or something useful-it’s now I want to be a rapper. Even to the point of DROPPING OUT of school to be one. 30 black boys dropped out of my school to be rappers. 10 are and only get played on the local station. The rest in jail, welfare or baby daddies.
@1 Tru Diva,
cognitive dissonance- the state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, esp. as relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change.
“Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal, MCs spit rhymes to uplift they people.”
KRS-ONE
Tell em ‘Face.
Man, just put on some Pac, Biggie, Jay-Z ***** from the 90’s – some Eric B. and Rakim, Tribe Called Qwest and De La Soul – you put that up against anything that has come out in rap over the last 10 years. It’s no *****ing contest.
Rap music is garbage. Music just aint the same – that goes for R&B too.
man reading some of these comments just uplifted my whole day ..and that is EXACTLY what hip hop was supposed to be …its supposed to get u excited..make u feel what the ARTIST wants you to feel..it felt good.. and i do miss the days when there was variety and it made even the ‘fruit-snack’ stuff acceptable because thats not all we had …i feel like hip hop should represent people and the truth of the matter is there are some ‘fruit snacks’ out there and theres not necessarily anything wrong with that but damn where’s everybody else? thats my issue …sometimes i do wanna laugh n have fun with music but these rappers nowdays cant switch it up for nothin because they dont have real talent..it kills me …black music in general is not at all what it used to be …dont get me wrong i love me some beyonce thats my girl she bad she’s what janet was but jill scott is my girl too why are some people clueless as to who she is so its not just hip hop i think the ’soul’ has died in black music period. cause *****ody got a record out that can make me feel the way i do when i put on angela winbush’s ‘your smile’ …or an anita baker jam…aint no teddy p’s ..aint no frankie beverly & maze’s …aint no run dmcs..or epmds…or A.T.C.Q…or jeru the demaja’s…hell i’ll settle for a 94 faith evans lol i remember when thats ALL we had wasnt no such thing as black music without the soul ..but let me stop im about to cry lol i need to go whip out some Emotions – Dont Ask My Neighbor & make myself feel better
What the f*ck is he tallking about fruit snack rap-b/c he’s giving soulja boy praise & he the main one that should be on that list ,lil bow wow too……….
He;s just mad he music ain’t getting paid,*****ody checking for Scarface pls go sit down
I dont agree with Bad Boy started the bubble gum rap. Yes P Diddy signed A LOT of one hit wonders but that one hit was oh so crazy.. Craig Mack – Flavor in your ear remix. Mase – Harlem World album. ***** even G-Deps album was really good. Diddy defines commercial but he still has an ear for HIP HOP. I was born 88′ , young compared to all you guys but my ipod consists of music from straight 80s – mid 90’s. What ya know about Nas’ demo tape before Illmatic in 91. and Jayz 92′ demo tape with the Original “In my Life time” His first video ” I cant get with that”.. love those two, jam to them constantly. I cant even talk about music with people these days i dont entertain it. For me its more than just whats comming out the speakers. I come from the Bronx, Gun hill Rd and White plains. If u from NY you know thats the Hood! so i can relate to their soulful songs about struggle and trying to make it out. I dont wana hear this nonsense about how many chains and cars u got. ***** i never owned a car!
I personally Dont watch TV or listen to the Radio. Tv never gives you a real point of view. VH1 had top 100 greatest hip hop songs.. no they had top 100 hip hop videos LOL. Most of those songs weren’t even the best song by that artist.
I dont support Pac. I think he created that “fake persona” most rappers portray now. Pac you are NOT from the west coast. ***** u grew up and was born in NYC. you moved cuz nas and biggie were the big names and you didnt see success in NY. I respect him for takin it to cali and becoming successful but NEVER tell me pac is a west coast artist. He is not real, fake ***** *****.
I was following Face up until he said he respected Soulja Boy. At that point all of his accredidation went right out the window. Man up Face! You speak in all those general terms and then when your asked about specific artist you drop praise! Soulja Boy is the poster boy for “fruit snack rap”- but then again, you prolly didnt call him on it because you wanna make a cameo! You can’t speak about real hip hop not getting radio play- which most times equates to lower sells, and then give Soulja Boy props for selling. Tell me Face, have you been chewing on fruit snacks recently??? Because selling records shouldn’t be the measure by which we judge true hip hop. I was disappointed in this article!
corporate formula my *****.. when *****s stop spending money on that bull***** music then the “corporations” won’t put it out.. weezy’s been putting out garbage since gillie stopped writing for him.. ya’ll eat that ***** up and buy the cd’s.. don’t blame the people getting paid, blame the idiots spending their dough on it.
LMAO… I’m sure that slug left some wounds with some folks….
@LOU
@LOU
THANK YOU! I been telling cats who is wack and you just clarified the one that most of these clowns rebuttal………LIL WAYNE! That dude is *****!!
Here is my official WACK-*****-NESS list:
Lil Wayne
Lil Boosie
Young Joc
Young Jeezy
Webbie
Plies
Soulja Boy
V.I.C.
99.3% of radio play
Gorilla Zoe(if this nucca spell 1 more word!!)
luv scarface , rap music is getting bad , too many wonna be’s .
Go Scarface! I’ve always respected this dude, and I think it’s about time someone said something about the direction hip-hop has been going in. I’m tired of rappers doing the jig just to get some video play. Even some rappers who nomally would NOT put out any bull*****, are slowly jumping on this whole raggedy rap bandwagon. Plies (real name Algernod Washington) needs to put his nursing skills to use because rap is not his strong point. Tired of rappers constantly talking about the same things (Cars, women/hoes, chains, and so on…) when there are so many positive and negative things that have impacted people. Oh yeah, I’m kicking that Cupid Shuffle dude when I see him. My point is… Rap isn’t the same. It’s like being in a relationship that you thought was going to take you places, but you grow apart. I think that I’ve grown up, and Rap has grown greedy. Our relationship is really rocky. I still have hope for my love for the game, but I dont know. I know a lot of people may not agree with my choice, but I listen to rap/hip-hop only SOMETIMES. Other than that, I listen to music from the 60s-90s. I’ve even listened to country for a while. I had a crazy ***** Cowgirl roommate though… and some of it was pretty catchy.
lol @ all of u….u triks are the same mf’s that listen to radio and think these nerds are hot…..if ur under 30 u dont really know what rap music is and thats a fact!!!
@some1better
Wow! So basically you have to be above a certain age in order to appreciate a certain type of music? Then to call your personal opinion a “fact” is just beyond critical. You’re entitled to your opinion, but to say something is a fact when you have no proof of it, is just proving that you must be younger than you lead on. If this little age theory of yours is true, then it should apply to more than one set of situations. I’m guessing anyone under a certain age, shouldn’t know about Otis Redding either. The lack of logic!!! SMH
That’s right *****. Tell this little boys to step aside and let the real men with real words handle hip-hop.
Ya’ll gonna cuss me out for this but Diddy killed hip hop. Those *****’s came out talking bout Versace and Gabbana now that’s all most rap artist spit about: money, *****es, bently’s
Folks gotta realize that hip-hop is an art form. Art forms have and always will be conducive of the state of a culture that its relying.
IF you don’t like the path hip-hop has taken handle that ***** at the source. Talk to your little brothers and sisters. Let them realize that there’s more to life then patron, bentleys, red bottom shoes, lv.
agree!
bring back snoop and dre!
detox almost ready??
snoop is sellin his shed on ebay??

HIP HOP IS SO DEAD, SO WACK IF YOU ASK ME. ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS TELL PEOPLE WHICH WAY TO STEP, KEEP A CUP IN YOUR HAND, FIND A B*TCH, AND U R DA MAN. PLEASE. THIS ***** IS HORRIBLE BUT PEOPLE BUY IT.
I APPRECIATE ARTISTS LIKE PLIES, WHO DOES KEEP IT REAL ON HIS CDS. HE TELLS A STORY, HE DOESNT MAKE JUST CLUB MUSIC, HE LETS YOU FEEL HIS WAY OF LIFE AND SIDE OF THE STORY!
SEEMS EVERYBODY KNOW WANNA TEACH YOU HOW TO DANCE AND CALL THEMSELVES RAPPER, GIVE ME A BREAK
GIVE ME NWA BACK

AND LIL WAYNE, MY GOODNESS, IF ANYBODY IS OVERRATED, HE DAMN SHO IS, I AINT LYIN, I MEAN, 1/2 THE TIME, WHAT THE HELL IS HE SAYING???????? THE SAME TYPICAL ***** ERBODY ELSE DONE SAID. WHY CANT HE BE LIKE A TUPAC OR BIGGIE IF HE SO GREAT? NEVER, BECAUSE ITS HARD TO BE ORIGINAL BUT EASY TO BE A COPYCAT!
@YUP
YOU NAILED IT! EVERYTHIN U SAID WAS RIGHT ON POINT! These artists today have lost that soul connection…In times like these, where are the rappers writing songs that would be equivilent to those like SELF-DESTRUCTION or ME, MYSELF, and I by DE LA SOUL?
Face is the greatest! Tell ‘em whatcha gonna do Face!!
SCARFACE I see you wHAt UP!!!!
So what ive been saying since 02/13/07 is cosigned by the true king of the south? I told yall deep south rap is *****ty, its dumb, its for ignorant *****f*ckas and it needs to be deaded. Scarface’s speech that “hip hop is an artform” is what Ive been saying all along!
