This review is from: World Is Yours (Audio CD)

I have always been a fan of Scarface since his first album. His aggressive stlye of rapping plus the social commentary puts him above the average rapper from the south. This second album has a lot of gems in it which are COMIN AGG, THE WALL, LETTIN EM KNOW, LET ME ROLL, YOU DONT HEAR ME DOE, DYING WITH YOUR BOOTS ON, NOW IF FEEL YA(deep old school classic), MR SCARFACE PART 3 FINAL CHAPTHER, HE'S DEAD and IM BLACK(deep record about police brutality). Filler: Still that n***a, Strictly For The Funk Lovers(stupid filler wher they pretty much say doodoochaser all over the record) and Funky Lil N***a(the little boy so wack its sidesplitting hilarious. Bottom Line: The World Is Yours is a classic that is that any Scarface fan will enjoy. Scarface's raps are still on point, the production was solid and he gave you a little insight on certain tracks. A definite must-have!

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Album, July 22, 2004

A classic album - This album was one of the first to move away from samples?and use live instruments ? great arrangements - beautiful & disturbing lyrics - Scarface is the Father of Southern Hip Hop. Scarface and his Geto Boys redefined the Gangsta/Hardcore genre ? Several MC?s?well known MC?s changed their vocal style/flow and production to conform to the Rap-A-Lot sound. One of the most slept on albums of the early 90?s - A must buy for the hip hop aficionado.

Peace

5.0 out of 5 stars Aggressive but controlled lyrics over southern-fried funk., December 24, 2001

By

This review is from: World Is Yours (Audio CD)

Mr. Scarface comes off hard on this album, bringing together the violent braggadocio of songs like, "Coming Agg" with the heartfelt soul-searching of "Now I Feel Ya", with "Dying Wth Your Boots On" a surprisingly insightful combination of the two. On "The Wall", Scarface once again examines his own psyche, contemplating his divergent mental states. Tracks like "Let Me Roll". provide fun interludes to the more serious ones, and, if "Mr Scarface: Part III The Final Chapter" is, as he claims, "Some old-school Scarface freestyling", Mr. Jordan appears ready to battle any of New York's finest, bringing together three tales into one mess of joyous, wit-filled fun. While certainly not for the young _or_ faint of heart, "The World Is Yours" is a classic album, arguably the strongest product to come out of Rap-A-Lot records.
P.S. One bonus that comes of purchasing this album on CD is the ability to skip the woefully misguided efforts that are "I Need A Favor" and "Strickly For The Funk Lovers". On tape, these _lengthy_ tracks just grate on the nerves.
