Top on the drop yeah of course it's missin "Beam me up Scotty, yeah the force'll lift him
Not surprisingly Chamill' has the longest verse of the three on the song and shines the most: Most notably the track "Platinum Starz" featuring Bun B, Lil' Flip and Chamillionaire has been heard on the latters "Mixtape Messiah" release, but the track is a classic and does deserve a little extra shine. I swear I never seen a man cry, 'til it was my own eye"ĭespite the fact this is a new release, not all of the material that you'll find here is original.

Why Scarface and Rap-A-Lot went this route I'll never know, but given the original "My Homies" was such a mixed bag at two discs I couldn't justify paying $20 out of pocket for something that might be all too similar - a few great songs and a lot of mediocre ones.

In fact the second disc is usually an incentive to buy the album instead of bootlegging it, because the internet download won't come with the extra shit, so the labels don't want stores to overprice them either. Two disc releases are pretty damn common these days and most stores won't price them over $14.99 even when they're NOT on sale as a result. If they had put the double disc version on sale too at an even halfway reasonable price, say $14.99, I would have happily picked it up. How you like that? Fuckin' bullshit if you ask me. I was presented with a daunting choice when buying this album to review it at Best Buy - get the single edition for $9.99 while on sale or pay TWICE as much for the double disc edition, which was not on sale despite being released at the same time on the same week.
For whatever reason hasn't been consistantly serviced by Rap-A-Lot Records for a LONG time now. In hindsight that makes it a bit of a shame "My Homies" was such an inconsistant release, but in fairness it's hard to hold weight for any artist on a double album and 'Face was relying heavily on the "homies" to get it done - frankly some just weren't up to the task.īefore going further with this review I'd like to clarify that my copy of "My Homies Part 2" is the one disc version. When Scarface speaks people not only listen, they take notice. It's not hard to see why given that Brad Jordan is the largest member of the Geto Boys, not only in physical stature but in terms of his hip-hop reputation outside the group. on "2 Real" all got mainstream exposure thanks to the association with Scarface on this double album. Scarface's own lyrical contributions to that project were not that memorable, but guests like Devin the Dude and Tela on "Fuck Faces" (released to single as "Sex Faces"), Seagram (R.I.P.) on "Sleepin' in My Nikes" and U.G.K. At least we can presume they are since the 1998 release "My Homies" put a lot of underground Southern rappers over nationally. Scarface is back and the homies are happy about that.
