Scarface’s Deeply Rooted album is scheduled for release September 4 and in an interview with Rolling Stone published yesterday (July 16), the Houston rapper discusses why a The Geto Boys reunion album will not be happening.
Geto Boys member Willie D launched a Kickstarter campaign in June to raise funds for what would be the group’s eighth studio album, Habeas Corpus. The campaign ended yesterday (July 15) short of its $100,000 goal.
“In all honestly, I don’t know if that’s what the fans actually wanted,” Scarface says of the group’s failed Kickstarter campaign. “I feel like if that’s what they wanted, then that’s what we’d be doing.
“If talks of doing another Geto Boys album reappears, and that’s what the people want, make no mistake about it, I’m down with the people,” Mr. Scarface says.
The Houston rapper says he’d rather be producing his sons’ album if that’s not what the fans want. “I got three boys that’s extremely talented,” he says. “I got three boys that’s probably better rappers than I’ll ever be.”
Scarface acknowledges that Geto Boys had a good run and agrees with fans on not having a Geto Boys reunion.
“Man, we had a hell of a time, bro,” the longtime Rap-a-Lot Records rapper says. “We had a great run. And every few years we should tour. But I don’t know if that reunion is ever gonna be. If the fans don’t wanna do that shit, then I don’t do it. I’m with the fans on this one.”

Man fuck the Geto Boys. They too real. We need more dumbed down rappers like Fetty Wap and 2 Chainz I like my rap to be as ignorant and unintelligent as possible.
lmao!
I agree. Id like to see a revival of the more intelligent rap that NYC was pushing out in the 90s. Now the best we got there is Troy Average smh.
Troy is nice. No need to hate just cuz hese no Scarface
Next story….The lame who stole zigzags tag. Gets legs broken and house invaded.
fuck these washedup old hasbeens and the one eyed midget loser too lol
Really felt the need to type that in, didn’t you?
Go back in bed to your BF He wants his balls dry He said
so what happens to the money that was raised so far? do they give it back?
no they spend it on crack suckin on that glassdick
They spend it on yo mama, CrackheadHasBeens.
But for real, they should give it back or at least give it to a charity.
The funding doesn’t get released until the goal is reached. So no one is getting charged in the first place.
