Scarface trends on social media for Tiny Desk performance

Scarface was the first Southern rapper to truly break through, putting Rap-A-Lot Records on the map. It ended up being the first of many major moments. Despite the criticism the South used to receive, there was never a time when Scarface wasn’t given his respect as an emcee. As a result, he remains top five on the lists of people who truly know hip hop. This weekend, he finally delivered a Tiny Desk Concert, and he’s trending heavy on the internet for it.

Scarface originally rose to fame as a member of Geto Boys. However, he was active on the Houston hip hop scene before the group. Actually, J. Prince heard about Scarface, who was rapping under a different alias at the time. After hearing about Scarface, J. Prince found him, and pitched him the concept of the whole Geto Boys group. After that, he paired him alongside Willie D and Bushwick Bill. Bushwick, unfortunately, passed away in 2019.

Scarface has overcome a lot to remain alive and healthy. A few years back, he actually announced his retirement from doing performances. So, this is what makes his willingness to do Tiny Desk such a big deal. Given the classic music under his belt, few people expected anything but an amazing performance out of him. But what Scarface actually gave to the public was something far better. As a result, he’s heavily trending on social, right now.
