Scarface “My Homies 2”

When it comes to kicking the raw uncut hardcore reality raps that tell gritty, yet cautionary tales of the streets, nobody does it better than the immortal Scarface, the absolute ruler of reality rap. For the past fourteen years Scarface has consistently dropped stellar albums both as a member of the legendary Geto Boys and as a solo artist. Although Face’s work with the Geto Boys was the catalyst of his luminous career, it is his work as a solo artist that’s garnered him the most accolades as a lyricist. His solo discography reads like a litany of hip hop’s classic albums with each one going no less than platinum. This year Scarface drops his most ambitious record to date, My Homies 2, the long awaited sequel to his classic My Homies.

“With my Homies 2, I’m giving the streets what they want that raw ghetto reality,” says Scarface. “This is some of the realest shit I’ve ever done.”

Picking up where the first My Homies left off, the sequel once again pairs Scarface up with some of the best lyricist in the hip hop game. Face personally selected the MCs that appear on each and every track and oversaw every aspect of the record and appears on most of the tracks This is not a compilation album, but more like a Scarface album with a few of his friends and colleagues sitting in.

Produced by an all-star cast of platinum producers such as KLC of the Medicine Men, Tone Capone, Mr. Lee, Joe Traxx, Mike Dean, the Legendary Traxster, Mr. Mixx, Teddy Riley and Kanye West as well as newcomers Tran Chilla, Bigg Tyme, Don P of Trillville, Criminal Manne, Q-Stone and Rakesh, My Homies 2 contains some of the hottest beats that Scarface has ever spit on.

For proof one needs to look no further than the banging lead single “Never Snitch,” featuring Beanie Seagal and The Game. The controversial track puts snitches and informants on blast for their cowardly ways. Produced by Tone Capone the song has a trunk-rattling bass line and a dark and sinister piano riff that harks back to the days of Scarface classic record The Diary. On “Pimp Hard” Face is joined by Pimp-C, Z-Ro, Juvenile & Petey Pablo to spread some good old fashioned pimping on a slinky smooth track with a fat bass line and sparkling keyboards. “Deez Bitches” sees the return of Devin the Dude, who debuted on the My Homies volume one. This time he is joined by upstarts Lil Ron and Dolla Boy as they drop the skinny of trifling women. Also as added bonus My Homies 2 includes a rare remix of Common’s smash hit “The Corner” which features a blazing verse by Scareface as well as production by the multi-platinum super producer Kanye West. Other outstanding tracks on My Homies 2 include “Man Cry,” “Always,” “My Life,” “Gangsta,” “Crazy” and “Street Shit.”

“Just like the last My Homies, I got everybody that I wanted to work with on this album,” says Scarface. “I got everybody that’s hot on the streets. I got Bun B, Juvenile, Z-Ro, Petey Pablo, Devin the Dude, Ice Cube, The Game, Skip of UTP, Partners –n- Crime, Lil Flip, Chamillionaire, Eightball, Slim Thug and Lil Keke plus some of the hottest new artist in the game. I guarantee that every song on here is a certified Banger!”

“Never Snitch”

lyrics



(Scarface)



Niggas forget about the streets, but when they rap they songs

They claim they tote the heat, they quick to clap they guns



In interviews be bragin about the crack they slung

But when its war these cowards never blast they run.



Who the fuck you think you fooling Dog, I live this shit

I know when niggas is faking, I live this shit.



You can front it all you want, but when yo ass gets hot

Then you can rest asure nigga, yo ass gets got.



I’m saying that to say this, I can plot those hits

I’m connected in every city on cabo shit.



I ain’t even got to say, these niggas know my size

a nigga made, there whoever cross going die.



Money changing muthafuckas, making hoes grow nuts,

You a bad muthafucka, you don’t give no fuck.



Let me slap you back to reality, dude shits real,

You a target, nigaas in Houston want you killed.



Face Mob until its over, south side to pipes,

Dirty 3rd in the bitch, J.Prince for life.



Dedicated to these niggas live and breed that shit,

Let the real niggas shout it out, scream that shit.



(Chorus)

I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.



I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.







(Beanie Siegel)



Be, Se baby, I’m back up in this bitch, like what

Fresh out the pen, once again, I’m here to drag my nuts

I am hell for real you doubt it nigga, call my bluff.



Only respect men that’s real, you coward rat ass fucks

Who raised you niggas, ya father probably hate ya guts,

Mad he didn’t double up and that lifestyle bust, ya lifestyle fucked



You ducking every corner he trying to clap at you, plus fuck ya mother, the bitch

Ain’t shit for having you, what



If you don’t like what I’m saying, then fuck ya attitude

Same lame probably showing these rat niggas gratitude.



Happy they ain’t snitch on you,

must I remind ya monkey ass, what a bitch might do.



They act like they got ya back, to infiltrate your rep,

They have you talking through the wire like Kanye West.



To all my real niggas trapin, homey mind ya tongues

Cause these cowards coming home off those 5K-1’s

I never Snitch!



(Chorus)

I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.



I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.





(The Game)



Snitch niggas, bitch niggas, they all the same face,

No matter what whole you crawl in Ho, you ain’t safe.



All you niggas is rats, nickname Jakes,

Sam, Curtis, & Alpo belong in the same place.

A penitentiary cell block getting gang rapped.



Coward mutha fucka now tell me how does my name taste,

I’ll leave you bleeding like your period came late.



Red bandana on, call that my game face, nigga come in all shapes

Some snitched wear Reeboks, some wear Bathing Apes.



Sometimes they crips niggas, other times pyro,

And some snitch niggas look just like you.



I promise to never snitch, like some of my homies,

G-Rock, B-Mase and OG Tony



Before I have the police run in ya House,

I’ll kiss my son on the cheek and put the gun in my mouth, muthfucka!





(Chorus)

I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.



I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.



I never snitch

I’ll never lie

I’m not a bitch

I’d rather die

Can’t nothing change me, not even time

I make the money , money don’t make me a dime.
