One of the most legendary MCs in hip-hop has officially announced his departure from rap. In a recent Geto Boys Reloaded podcast, Scarface said that he was stepping away from rapping to focus on other creative avenues. Fans of Scarface will still be able to get a chance to see the rapper before his final bow on stage as the MC promises to give them proper closure.
In the interview, Scarface discussed hosting a farewell concert, “The cool part about it is, I get to say farewell twice. I get to go out there and say farewell by myself, and then I get to say it with you.” He also took the chance to reflect on his success sharing, “I was saying some good shit. I probably could never write like that again. But it’s a beautiful thing when you’re able to express yourself with words and people fall in love with your ability to deliver a story.”
While he has announced that he is “done with rap,” Scarface is not done with music. He expressed interest in trying out different genres of music and said, “I want to do something different now…If I could, I would love to go into a different lane of music. Maybe blues or rock. Maybe alternative. I want to do something different now.”
