I ain't gonna say Scarface is the GOAT, because that varies from person to person. But no doubt he should be in everyone's top 5. You can argue against him being the GOAT, but not top 5.
- Face don't got one whack album that he put out. Remember that Rap-A-Lot and J Prince put out a couple albums without Face's permission (My Homies Pt2).
- Face got like 19 albums between his solo work and the Geto Boys. He got 4 decades worth of albums!
- Face is a pioneer for Southern Rap. He paved the way for UGK, 3-6 and more
- Face never sold out. He is considered by most as a top 10 artist of all time, yet he never gained mainstream success. Never sold out for them radio hits. He got 19 albums, and the only big radio song he ever had was "My Block."
- He is the ultimate story teller.
- He is your favorite rappers favorite rapper for a reason. He's got respect across the rap game.
- He ain't cocky like 95% of rappers. He almost never raps about all the money he has made, jewelry, materialistic things, and girls he's fukked. He raps about real life shyt that people can actually relate to, unlike most rappers.
Personally, he is my favorite of all time. I put him ahead of Jay and Nas easily because both of them sold out near the end of their careers. Their discographies also fell off near the end. Face's disco stayed strong til the end, unlike Jay-Z's last few albums. Nas didn't fall off quite as hard as Jay's disco, but his last 2-3 albums been only aite.
