So yesterday was a Texas holiday called UGK day. Alright so it’s not an official holiday and the postman still delivered mail and the banks were open, but to those of us that are into that real southern hip hop, or should I say that trill southern hip hop, yesterday was a holiday. It’s been about 5 years since their last album hit the streets and with time in between alot of things have changed, but these two are still on top of the country rap tunes game.
This time we’re lucky enough after all the wait to get a double album with 29 tracks and if you got into the stores fast enough you got to grab a copy that included a bonus DVD with a few of the new videos on it. If you acted real fast its currently on sale most places less than $13 with the DVD. I got mine for $12.99 and I’ve been wearing the discs out in the car for over 24 hours now and I’ll let you know this is as good as its ever been, or pretty close.
I’ll always be a fan of a few classic UGK tracks and I’m just not sure for me anything will ever compare to Diamonds and Wood, One Day, Murder, Pinky Ring or some of those tracks from Ridin Dirty. Maybe its just because I remember the time when I was hearing them while I listen, and not just the song, or maybe its because UGK was still raw and still hungry. Since then a lot has changed, Southern rap has really exploded and the spotlight is on it. Others have come up and come and gone. Bun B has done a verse for nearly anyone that was hot in the last couple years and his mixtape appearances were numerous. Read more
So I’ve got a fairly new track from Scarface that I thought I’d take a slow Sunday and share it with you. Are you fiending for some new Scarface? I know it’s been a minute but he’s been making moves once again and trying to stay relevant and invovled in the game. Scarface has always had a few things to say and this sure hasnt changed a bit. So check out the new track and tell me how you feel about it.
It’s a brand new Scarface track and I know you havent heard me say that in a minute. Well this morning I got a copy of a new track titled ‘High Powered’ and it seems Scarface is still on some old shit. He’s still talking about that snitch shit and all the bullshit that went down in Houston. You Scarface and Houston heads already know what Im talking about. Anyway it’s new Scarface so thats never a bad thing. Enjoy the track and post some comments back to let the world know how you feel.
Yeah now this is a real G style remix finally. You sure dont hear Scarface getting on enough remix tracks, everything seems to be some bullshit with some snap, crackle and pop rapper these days. Well Lil Keke and Scarface did it right with the ‘Im A G’ remix. RIP to my homie Pimp Chad as they say in the song, this track is new and definitely an upgrade from Birdman.
Oh yeah we’ve got new Scarface in stores and on iTunes today. If you want to get it right now you can cop it on iTunes like I did last night at about 2 in the morning. I’ve already listened through a couple times and like a lot of what I heard. It’s a shame that we’re looking at only 10 tracks, 12 if you count and intro and outro. Scarface is bringing a little of that new and some of that old with a few guest appearances. He’s always got that little bit of R&B feel to his stuff as well, and its all real. While it’s not going to be his best release ever, it’s a decent one and if you’re a Scarface fan its been a minute since you could buy a new album from him anyway. So check it out in your local stores today and then hit back on the comments to let everyone know how you feel about it.
Oh shit it’s time for more new Scarface. Scarface just dropped a track onto the net and it’s called Big Dogg Status featuring two big doggs going by the name of T.I. and Lil Wayne. Yeah you definitely know who those cats are and so this track is definitely hot and brand new. 
The man is back finally after almost a retirement and working to promote a group for a bit. Scarface is back on the scene doing the solo thing again and his first single is just now dropping. A single called Never, Scarface tells all of the things he would never do. Never snitch, never cop a plea and never forget. It’s definitely a hot track and shows that Face hasn’t lost his touch with the real type of music that you will always remember him for.
