    Classic Gangsta Rap--Must Have

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 23, 2007

    Pros: A-to-Z

    Cons: none

    this is a must-have gangsta rap album. although he's from the south, this serves up smooth west-coast style gangsta beats.
    and guess what: it's a classic album, not a collection of singles. listen in order front to back.

    His first Southern Classic Solo Album

    By Byg H  May 3, 2006

    Pros: It covers the whole spectrum. Love, Hate, Thug, Playa & Homie

    Cons: I wish it had a few more tracks

    I can't say enough about this album. Back when it was released it was a banger and even today it still is a Southern Classic. Face is, if not the, face of Southern Hip-Hop along with Outkast, Goodie Mob & UGK!

Pro Reviews: Diary

  • All Music Guide

    With the dissolution of the Geto Boys far behind him, Scarface follows the epic overreaching of The World Is Yours with The Diary, a refreshingly modest album with a few really strong moments and little filler. Never short on ideas, Scarface had nonetheless gone a little too far with the 70minute The World Is Yours. There was plenty of brilliance there, including the stunning "Now I Feel Ya," but you had to do some sifting to find it. That's less the case with the 43minute Diary, which doesn't overextend its ambitions. Scarface here once again offers a laidback gangsta ballad, "I Seen a Man Die," that's as thoughtful and somber as the style gets and also perhaps the album highlight. Elsewhere, he teams up with fellow gangsta veteran Ice Cube on "Hand of the Dead Body" and reprises his bestknown song, "Mind Playin' Tricks 94." Not counting the interludes, there's only ten songs here, and they're nearly all produced by the team of N.O. Joe and Mike Dean. It may make the album a short lis...ten, yet it also makes The Diary one of Scarface's most solid efforts, one where you rarely, if ever, feel inclined to skip a song. And that's something you can't say about the work of most rappers, particularly ones as creative as Scarface. - Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide Read more Less

Biography

Scarface

Scarface quickly became the South's most admired rapper and remained so throughout the '90s after breaking away from the Geto Boys to launch his solo career in 1991. Even if he never scored any national hits or stormed up the -Billboard charts with any of his numerous albums throughout the '90s, no one could question his clout throughout the South.
