Full review
Many people have been influenced by the scarface film and the rap genre has especially referenced to it man songs. This is now an official compilation of songs with money, power and respect themes. as you would imagine, all are rap.
Put together in 2003, this def jam idea includes songs by Nas, Mobb Deep and Notorious BIG, some made especially for the album some old tracks that just fit. None appear in the film but there are samples and dialouge used from the picture.
Tracks
Its Mine - Mobb Deep & Nas. Scarface cues used as the sample in this one which was originally put t ogether in 99. A good relevant track to start the album
Yeo - Cam'ron. Samples Rush Rush which is used in the film, rush rush get the yayo may be more familiar. best bit about the song is actually the sample with cam'rons raps not adding much but loads of drug references and average rhymes
10 Crack Commandments - Notorious BIG. A song taken from BIGs Life After Death, probably the worst song on that and this album. Its just a list relating to drug deals making reference to the line, never get high on your own supply. Poor production that im sure has been used since
Mr Scarface - Scarface. Ok i take it back this is the worst one. Originally released in 91 so its dated beats dont mix well with the up to date rap
Streets Is Watching - Jay Z. Taken from Jay Z's In My Lifetime album. Good intelligent raps, street warfare and feuds discussed here. Not his best track but not bad
Dopeman - NWA.A 1989 release added here and classic beats along with the old rap supergroup. Not really a lot going on but its NWA so you pay attention
Criminology - Ghostface Killah & Raekwon. A Rza produced track on a Wu Tang album from 95. Basic stuff here again, with the rhymes the main focus rather than the beats or a bit of both. No real chorus or gaps just a continual back and forth between the two. Not for me
Pusha Man - Joe Budden. Intimidating sounds here with the thought of dark streets and deals going down. Unfortunately the voice doesnt fir the production for me. Good beats but just missing something
White Lines (Dont Do It) - Grandmaster Flash & the furious five. Classic stuff from the 80s give the album a bit more a light hearted interval which is needed between all the harsh rap.
Money Power Respect - Lox, Lil Kim & DMX. Taken from Lox's first album, this was the best track from that album and one of the best here. Good use of strings, a lot of attitude and good rhymes from the whole lot.
A Bird In The Hand - Ice Cube. Tune from 91, repitive beats with the odd break and scratch. Good rhynes though if you can stand the beats
Good Times - Styles P. I get high high high! Quite popular in the clubs and with the radio shows but again its a bit repititive. It was during the time where using high pitched female vocals as a chorus was the done thing, not a bda track but can get irritating
1900 Hustler - Benie Sigel, Freeway, Jay Z & Memphis Bleek. Good track using horns and high pitched female vocals but not as much as the previous track. Good production and good breaks make this one of the better tracks
Bad Boyz - Barrington Levy & Shyne. Slow tempo and the same thing from Levy with his babadidily woo all the damn time. Do something different man. average raps from shyne and poor production make this a poor track
Dipset anthem - Diplomats. nothing much going on here either, its just so repetitive that you have to try really hard to listen to the whole thing
G.O.D Pt 3 - Mobb Deep. A 96 release using the end 'the world is yours' end credits as a sample and again thats the best bit about the song. Average all round
Overall not great, im suprised the film company let def jam use the trademark in association with these poor songs. Leave this one on the shelf

Additional notes
Album Notes: This is an Enhanced CD which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. When Brian De Palma's ultra-violent gangster film, SCARFACE, came out in 1983, it would be impossible to predict the imprint the movie would leave on the then-nascent world of hip-hop. At the time, the rap landscape was much more lighthearted, focusing on battling with rhymes instead of guns; it was before BDP's 9mm went bang, N.W.A. came STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON, and the Geto Boys related their grotesque stories from the street. Al Pacino's darkly potent performance as uncompromisingly ruthless drug-boss Tony Montana resonated in the world of gangsta rap--lines from SCARFACE were sampled in dozens of songs, the lifestyle was emulated, and Akshen of the Geto Boys even rechristened himself Scarface. To celebrate the movie's 20th Anniversary, Def Jam has released MUSIC INSPIRED BY SCARFACE, a killer compilation collecting tracks that feature some connection to the seminal picture, from 1983's classic anti-drug anthem "White Lines (Don't Do It)" by Grandmaster Flash to Joe Budden's 2003 track "Pusha Man." The album also features songs by practically every vital hardcore rapper who came in between, including the aforementioned N.W.A. and Scarface, along with Jay-Z, DMX, Nas, Lil' Kim, Mobb Deep, Notorious B.I.G., and many others. Given the wealth of SCARFACE-related material out there, MUSIC INSPIRED BY SCARFACE was an inevitable project, and stands as a valid chronicle of the evolution of gangsta rap.
