2001 Source Awards: Scarface beats Eminem, Jay Z, Prodigy, and Talib Kweli for Lyricist of the year

[Bugsmoran]

I agree Face should've won. It was 2001 but The award was judged on albums that came out in 2000 and nobody was lyrically as deep as Face that year



His last verse on Look Me In My Eyes when he's talking to his shrink

2:03 mark





Sorry For What. The emotion in this song






And one of Face's best verses back in 2000 is his guest feature on Jay z's joint Can't Be Life. Jay z wrote about the story behind Scarface's verse in his book Decoded.

 

[I love Latina women]

Last of Dying Breed is an underrated album in Face's catalog.
Sorry For What is 1 of Face's best songs.

 

[I'm Blackman]

He should have won.

And that album is incredible.

 

[OfTheCross]

Last of a Dying Breed is a known Classic.

They gave The Fix 5 mics off it

 

[OHSNAP!]

Welldeserved. Should have won for 94 (Diary) too

I feel like Face got better post Diary.
U can tell he stepped his game up even more so when u listen to Untouchable.
As for 94', the Diary came out in 94' and the awards are judged on the year before. So it would've been for The World Is Yours.

I think Nas should've won that one

They gave it to Biggie

Including Geto Boys albums Face got about 7 classics imo

Debut, Diary, Untouchable, LOADB, Fix, MADE, Emeritus are classics from a quality standpoint. Elite level lyrics, some amazing production, plus lots of deep shyt

 

[Saint1]

It's pretty crazy how overlooked Face is.

Jay, Nas, Pac, Big, 3000, Eminem , Prodigy, Big Pun, all get more mention than Face.

The Fix was an amazing album that had both Jay and Nas on the same album when they were beefing. Plus production was A+ and songs were dope. My Block .

People forget fans were asking for a Jay, Face and Beans album.

Face is top 10 easy.
