Scarface explains his opinion of what caused the decline of Rap-A-Lot Records to Noisey. He says that the label’s CEO, J. Prince, was trying too hard to emulate Master P and No Limit Records.

“J Prince wanted to Master P the game,” Scarface says. “I was like, ‘Wow like we fucked up so bad trying to do Master P when we should’ve just continued to do us.’ I feel like that was the fall of Rap-A-Lot Records to me. A lot of people may not see it like that, and some people might have gotten paid but from a creative stand point, trying be like Master P and put out albums every six or seven minutes fucked up our brand. I think greed fucked up the brand.”

The Houston rapper blasts Prince for trying to release more music than Rap-A-Lot could handle. He says The World is Yours, The Last of a Dying Breed and Balls and My Word are all projects that were compromised. He is especially critical of 2006’s My Homies Part 2.

“He put my name on My Homies 2,” Scarface says of J. Prince. “If anything, I feel like he was trying to ruin my career with cut-away material that never ever made the album. Just a totally disrespectful dude when it came to your shit. J didn’t give a fuck about you. He gave a fuck about him. He didn’t give a fuck about your family. He gave a fuck about his. He didn’t give a fuck who you fed. He only fed his people. That’s real shit. I’m not making this shit up.”

Scarface also analyzes the work he made as a member of The Geto Boys.

“There isn’t a Geto Boys album that I like,” he says. “I didn’t learn anything from it, and it was a bad time in life for me too. With the label, with life, whatever… it’s a point in my life where I was the most miserable. Everybody else was happy but I wasn’t. I did all of this shit for everybody else and nothing for me.”

In July, Scarface said a Geto Boys reunion album will not happen because the fans aren’t asking for it.
