Industry Peers Interview Scarface In New XXL Mag..
BEANIE SIGEL: When we gonna get on the golf course again?
SCARFACE: I love Beans, man. He just too gifted, and he’s so hood. We got a very deep relationship. I brought him out to hit some golf balls with me, and he talkin’ about the funniest shit. I should’ve pitched to him. Next time, instead of him hittin’ the balls off the tee, I’m gonna pitch to him, because he got a baseball swing. As soon as he gets back [to Houston], or I’ll come to Philly and play. He probably on the golf course right now, learning how to play that shit, ’cause of me. Me and Mac finna do an album. Mac and Brad. And we gonna let Kanye produce it.
SAIGON: You being one of the greatest MCs in history, do you feel that new Southern artists are neglecting lyricism?
SCARFACE: Southern artists are doing what they do. I can never knock nobody for what they doin’. New York perfected the craft, and they so fuckin’ serious about it. Coming from New York, I can see them saying people from down South are neglectin’ the art form. Yes, I can see them saying that. But I think there’re decent lyricists down here. Some of it’s bullshit, but I think they’re doing their best. I mean, New York is serious about hip-hop. Down here is oil country. This is gold teeth and rims. Here, it’s business.
SOULJA BOY: How did you feel when you first heard my song “Crank Dat (Soulja Boy)”?
SCARFACE: [Laughs] I wanted to know what “Superman dat hoe” meant. Soulja Boy got a lot of love with these kids, and that’s where it starts. I can’t say nothin’ bad about his music, ’cause the kids like it. My daughter thinks he’s the best rapper in the world. My kids don’t like my shit, so that tells you something right there. Tell that dude to call me. He could do my MySpace page, ’cause I need one. I want that little dude to blow me up on MySpace like he blew up. I’m being real as fuck. He got that MySpace shit goin’ nuts.”
