People expecting the twisted imagery of songs such as Born Killer, Mind of a Lunatic, or The Walking Dead may be disappointed and would consider this effort Face’s softest effort.īut the “soft records” aren’t bad. When Face released his 9th studio solo album and it remains as his most spiritual work to date. There was a lot of hype behind Face’s Def Jam debut and this was supposed to have been the album that would break him into superstardom and have him earn the respect he deserved. But that didn’t knock Face’s Hustle, He opened up shop with his own label from Def Jam “Def Jam South” and introduced the masses to a very hilarious but yet witty and skillful rapper from the ATL Ludacris and with Face’s clever marketing and promotion, Luda sold 3 million off just his debut. His last album Last of a Dying Breed which was released in fall 2000 was one of the best albums to drop that year but unfortunately RAP-A-Lots shitty marketing pretty much made it the most overlooked album of 2000. While LL making 10 albums within two decades and still being able to maintain a name in hip hop is an accomplishment in its own rights It’s also about making all those albums of those albums enjoyable or more enjoyable than the previous and this is where Brad “Scarface” Jordan succeeds.įrom his early work with the Gheto Boys to his 8 solo projects(I wouldn’t count My Homies because it was a Compilation) Face hasnt dropped not ONE(I repeat one) wack album in his whole career. Well I respect LL for still being around after 16 years in the game because only a very few can survive in an Industry full of liars, cutthroats, backstabbing and snakes. When it comes to the term “Longevity” A lot of people bring up LL Cool J.

Scarface the fix
