![]() The first proper track ‘Safe’ is a bluesy track with great horn stabs produced by China Black (?) over which Scarface spits his usual hood tales in his own unique manner, it might be nothing new but he can do it better than most. The multiple guest spots are nothing new with Scarface since he’s collaborated with just about every rapper you can think of but leave it to Akshen to have both Nas and Jay-Z on his album at the height of their feud. So after being named the president of Def Jam South Scarface was bound to mellow out a bit right? Well he definitely approaches this album like a business man with a few radio-friendly tracks and R&B-ish songs. If you’re familiar with Scarface’s music, this reaction should come as no surprise, growing up in Houston’s 5th Ward, his raps reflect his tough upbringing, vivid street tales and crime narratives that have made him one of hip-hop’s most respected artists. ![]() Scarface is unflappable, how does he react to the constant hassling by the DEA and FBI? By naming his seventh solo album The Fix and including the liner notes in a little plastic baggie. Review Summary: Scarface gets away from what he usually does but there’s enough here for longtime fans to get their 'Fix'
