Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

What the world needs now is The Fix--a brilliant hip-hop album with the soul of a blues record. Dirty South iconoclast Scarface has never been afraid to get deep; at this point a lot of his young-man wildness has been replaced by a mature understanding of life's cyclical nature. Lyrically complex and leaning heavily on sombre chords, acoustic guitars and scratchy soul samples, The Fix is not a light and bouncy throwaway album, but one that demands repeated listening. Nonetheless, this is also no crossover attempt--all you get is superior hip-hop, accented with a touch of R&B vocals courtesy of Kelly Price, Faith Evans and Tanya Herron. Standout tracks include "In Between Us", featuring an impassioned star turn by guest MC Nas (Nasir Jones), the Kanye West-produced "In Cold Blood", and the gangsta lean "Sellout". But there's no question that "On My Block", an instant classic, is hands down the best cut. --Rebecca Levine


CD Description

On THE FIX, Scarface works overtime to show that a rapper can retain his gangsta credibility and still explore other avenues of expression. He lays down hard-hitting thug-life scenarios on such tracks as "Safe" and "Keep Me Down", but THE FIX is far from monochromatic. The bevy of producers add something special to each track, from the aforementioned "Keep Me Down"'s clever utilisation of an acoustic guitar riff sampled from '60s folkie Tom Rush, to golden-touch crew the Neptunes adding some pop/R&B flavouring (not to mention the sensual vocals of Faith Evans) to the catchy "Someday". Thematically, "Guess Who's Back" finds Scarface singing the praisesof old-school camaraderie with Beanie Siegel and Jay-Z, while the complex sociological analysis of "What Can I Do?" favourably recalls the Furious Five's classic "The Message".

5.0 out of 5 stars FACE MOB!, 18 Jan 2004
Scarface has some brilliant support on this album such as Nas, Jay Z, Kelly Price and W.C. There are a number of classic tracks on this album. My personal favourites are "Guess Who's Back" "On My Block" and "In Between Us."
"On my Block" has the perfect piano mix with beats for scarfaces voice. "Guess who's Back" has the most addictive tune and whether you like Jay Z or not you will like this song. "In between Us" has Nas who raps at the start and his verse will give you the shivers its that good!
Scarface raps about everything from God to the hood and not in the way that some rappers do these days SCARFACE DOES IT WELL! You will know what I mean by the time the album finishes. Whether you like hardcore gangsta rap or the more radio friendly rap this album has it all and no matter which you prefer you will like it all. Scarface raps with a realism that is quite rare in this age but stands it own and puts others to shame.
There was not many great albums released when this album was out but this made sure it became a classic must have.
If you dont know much about scarface this is the best album to start your appreciation and if you are a big fan you MUST own this in your collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars Scarface - The Greatest rapper ever to live, 26 Jun 2003
Scarface - The Greatest rapper ever to live, well apart from 2pac. But this album is the closes any rapper had ever came to matching 2pac's class!

This is one of scarface's best album all tracks could (and should) be relised as singles apart form Safe. I think its a real shame this track was put on this album.

But still with scarefaces greatest song ever 'On My Block' has been added with just makes the album amazing! It unlike any rap song, with its upbeat style, its one of the Greatest songs u will ever hear.

Also with artist like Nas, Jay-z, Kelly Price they just add an extra element to this album.

Scarface's beats are unlike any others! He makes rappers like Jay-z (who i hate) sound good. I would buy this album in instermental and still say its a good album but with Scarface rapping on it, just shows how scarface is one of the greatest rapper to come through yet!

Best songs:
Guess Who's Back
On My Block
Keep Me Down
In Between Us
Sell Out
Heaven

For any hip-hop fan this is the best album you will buy this year! Even if this album was £30 i would still buy it! This is a must buy!
