Title: SCARFACE IS NOW KNOWN AS FACE
Post by: eastsidalbcc on March 11, 2002, 01:55:27 AM
I've heard that the rapper just changed his name to "Face". It was in an italian hip-hop site. Is it confirmed?

Plus it's written that he will release an album next june probably called "The Redemption". Any infos on it?

Other rumors about him.. he wanted to hook up with Daz & Too Short to make a super-group. The source is Daz himself, from his infamouse Message Board. Wassup with it? Any news?

Thanx in advance.

Actually i'm asking you all if it's real.. I've just read it in an italian hip-hop site!  ;)

Btw they said that, after all those years and almost 10 albums out, he feels like he needs to change his name. We will see.

P.S. His name will be "The Face". Maybe it's legally ok like that.

And this is the news quoted by Rukas of Hitemup.


Scarface Changes Name, Prep's 7th Solo Album:

By Mike Winslow
Date: 3/6/2002 4:00 PM

Legendary rapper Scarface recently revealed to AllHipHop.com that he has dropped the Scar from his name and is now just Face. When asked why the name change for the veteran after so many years, Face simply said he just wanted a change. Face is currently preparing his 7th solo album, titled The Redemption.

"This is definitely one of the best records ever of mine. It don't miss nothing," Face said. Face said that the album will feature cameo's from Nas and Jay-Z to name a few, as well as production from The Neptunes, Mike Dean and others.

"We have stepped it up 500 percent. We are gonna change the face of this shit" Face continued. "The Redemption" is slated for a June release on Def Jam South, the Atlanta based label that Face is President of. "I love Atlanta, even though right now I am in Houston. Shit, I love the entire United States!"


It's all clear now! Good luck Face!

I heard about this and agree, this is most likely a contract issue with Rap A Lot.  He is dropping on Def Jam South so this could be a label move issue.  Good point.

Never Seen a Man Cry is one of my favorite songs. What Face is saying in that song I can feel 100%.

He already did a song with Too $hort and Daz awhile back that had a video. It was okay. I wouldn't mind seeing them hook up.

i still like the name scarface over face....face was more of a nick name....hes a gangster and the name scarface fits him perfectly....i personally think he should stay on rap-a-lot...sure he would sell more on def jam but hes been on rap-a-lot so long...he made that label....and if he leaves then yukmouth sort of wins the little battle....yuk is tight and all but he swears hes the king of rap-a-lot....mr scarface is the king...flat out....either way....whatever he does i will always support him....
