Scarface To Retire?

He's said previously that Emeritus would be his last foray as a rapper, and Scarface seems to be sticking with that mantra.

In a recent video featuring Face and 112's Slim, the rapper confirmed his retirement, or at least the retirement of his Scarface rap moniker. Click Here For More...

"Scarface is dead, yeah, he's dead," Face told Slim. "The artist formerly known as Face is going to produce some sh** on Slim's album, but it won't be Face no more, Face is dead."

Despite a long success career, both as a solo artist with classic albums like The Fix and as a member of the legendary Geto Boys, Face is adamant at stepping out of the spotlight, and putting his focus on handling things behind the scenes.

"I wanted to broaden my horizon in music, I grew up in a band, I play everything," Face added. "As influential as I am in the music industry, it would be wrong to stay in the music and not bring it back."

As far as the future, Scarface hasn't divulged his plans. But, during an interview with MTV back in September, he said he'd consider returning to rap only if he was to do a collabo album with the likes of Cube, Jay-Z, Nas and/or Beanie Sigel.
