Scarface called into the HoodHype Show last night to express his displeasure with VH1 for the “Dirty South” label that has been applied to their upcoming Hip-Hop Honors tribute to Southern MCs.

Picture 36

The legendary MC has taken issue with how VH1 will handle the representation of southern artists and their segregation from other honorees.

Put me in general population with the rest of these…(artists). Put me in with Das Efx” – Scarface

He notes that Too Short was honored along with De La Soul in the past and that it should be done that way. (props to Nahright)

What do you think? Should there be a separate Hip-Hop Honors separated by region? Or should all artists be grouped together and honored appropriately?

    one of the best interviews ever he keep it real real.. and real funny at the same time i love face.. one of the kings of hip hop and one of the realest to do it..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/alternativechick/ alternativechick

    i agree with face if an individual is going to be honored it should be based on that persons accomplishments and their success with their craft along with acknowledge of any positive contributions the artist provided to the culture of hiphop geographical region has no bearing what so ever i feel the labels and people personal analysis of whats hiphop and whats not exemplifies why the culture has become more based on animosity and hostility as oppossed to self respect empowerment and love for our race as a people thru a musical outlet

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LenchMobChillyChill/ LenchMobChillyChill

    I Agree 100%percent Face Is Right, Hip Hop Is Hip Hop, How Are You Gonna Split It Up, It Does Not Matter Where You Come From Or If You Can Rap Or If Your Trash, At The End Of The Day If You Made An Impact In Rap History And On People, And In The World Good Or Bad…. It Should All Be In The Same Basket…. We All Are Different In Our Own Way From Coast To Coast But Were Pushing For The Same Thing If Your Down With Hip Hop…. If Not Then Don’t Buy It, Don’t Watch It, Or Have Anything To Say About It, Because Your Opinion Does Not Matter To Something That Has Been Going On Before You Open Your Eyes And One Day Got Introduced To Hip Hop, Or Just Jumped On The Band Wagon, And Woke Up One Day And Saw Your Kid, Or Turned On The TV And Saw It Or Turned On The Radio And Had Something To Say…. ” We All Have A Choice Hear It Out, Or Choose Not Too ” Either Way Nothing Will Stop It…. It Will Still Go On…. Like It Or Not….

    but right now its mostly gimmicks and alot of fluff with no substance.

    The thing is though, who coined this phrase “dirty south?” You couldn’t hear one Southern artist who wasn’t Yelling “dirty south.” As far as I’m concerned, the artists themselves created this segregation. I could be wrong, but Face is the first southern artist taking issue with the term. My problem is, he never had an issue with the term (and still doesn’t) when artists were using it, now that VH1 uses it, he has an issue? Lets be real, how many Southern artists would have been OFFENDED if they didn’t recognize or use the term “dirty south?” The only point I feel is legit is that it should have been hosted somewhere down South, and I even say Houston since they seemed to have pioneered “down south” hip hop!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LUNATIK713/ LUNATIK713

    He has every right to be pissed off. Yeah we say “Dirty South” but the fact remains its still rap and hip/hop. Most folks were sleeping on rappers from the south acting like we couldn’t produce anything that was deemed worthy to listen to. Yeah some artist are garbage but thats north south, east, west and the in betweens and VanityK09 shut fawk up you should be separated. I’m with Scarface on this one if they’re going recognize rappers from the south don’t put a f-cking label on it. One big family like he said!

    I’m just glad that an artist is standing up for something other than materialistic things and bragging rights.. I have much love and respect for Face but at the same time, he does use the word nigga (when labeling) like it’s the word “the” or “if”.. Maybe he’s maturing. At any case, I’m glad for him for taking a stand but, don’t label unless ye be labeled (LOL)..

    LOL, this is laughable because the southern rappers gave THEMSELVES that ‘title’ to begin with. To them it’s like a badge of honor…
    And umm they should be glad they are being honored at all being is that 99% of southern rap SUCKS!!!!!
    If I was an east coast/west coast/mid west rapper, I wouldnt want to be known with the likes of those clowns anyway! Waka flacka flames, souljah boy, hurricane chris, ying yang twins, Luke, Trina’s disgusting ass, and the list goes on and on….

    See this how that westcoast/eastcoast bullsh!t got started because people taking sides and throwing out all this negativity. Not every rapper from the south is good and neither is every rapper that’s from the east/westcoast and in between. I don’t listen to Souljah boy or Waka Flames or whatever the f-ck his name is if a rapper sucks he/she sucks. That’s the reason why I listen to old skool anyway. We should feel honored to get mentioned by hip/hop as southern rappers that’s some elitist bull some of you peep spouting off on here. I know some of you some d!ck riding f-cks anyway on here you talking about they’re sub par but let one of these rappers from the south be around you and speak yall gonna pull that phony oh you so cool starstruck groupie routine. I aint got nothing against a rapper whether they’re lame or not but I’m not going to be like oh your music tight I’ll straight up say I’m not feeling your music period. I hate this bubblegum sh!triffic music they wanna pass off as rap that includes artist like Nikki Minaj,Obie Trice,50 cent and tons other ones who I think give rap and hip/hop a bad name. You know f-ck the bullsh!t just f-ck all you skigskags and markayus tricks who hating on rappers in general and giving props to this bs that’s being passed out as real hip/hop.

    Facemob is on point with what he’s saying. The south always get put in a separate category in this country when it comes to anything. Like we’re refugees. It’s plenty of talented artists in the south. Only narrow minded dumbazzes would think Waka Flaka and other bs music represent the south. Goodie Mob created the term Dirty South and it was a song actually named Dirty South on their first album “Soul Food.” Like my dad told me since childhood, “every race, even your own people will have a bad perception or less of you because you’re from the south.” Down South repper forever.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/TiredMan/ TiredMan

    I agree with Scarface because what’s coming out of the South nowadays is just “rap”…it’s not true Hip-Hop. True Hip-Hop is a culture, not the get-rich-quick-scheme that that rap is turned into. These flavor-of-the-month bama rappers are just the new Uncle Toms, exploiting negative imagery, constanly rapping about money, blunts, jail, and shooting ni**as, and warping young minds that already lack structure and decent parental guidance. Their unimpressive, simple Seaseme Street-level lyrics lack sophistication of a Tupac, a Rakim, or even an Eminem. These youngsters are so busy bobbing their heads to the heavy beats and the retarded One-Two-Buckle-My-Shoe lyrics that they have no frame of reference for REAL Hip-Hop. The generation growing up on this crap is so lost.

    in response to (ImNotUrType_619} hey you can say all those things about the south because alot of it is true. Yet you cant say that the south killed hiphop. the reason hip hop is dead cause so many nigga sold themselves to get where they are. alot of the east and west coast artist are not eaten so they hating on the south. i mean aint that some playa hating s**t.If anyone is gonna blame someone then blame the fans.the fans use to support the nas and jayz’s but not anymore. when the so called gods of rap can barely go platinum then thers a problem. the same fans who was supporting them niggas and buying they s**t anymore.all them old school rappers who was eating back in the day cant even go gold right now. the fact is niggas dont wanna listen to the same s**t.i remember back in the 9o’s a artist from new york could go platinum just in new york alone,not anymore.its a new time and a new era and a new generation. this same s**t happened with r&b, and rock n roll.i agree i dont like everything produced in the south, but there is some good music being made people are just so ignorant they will never hear it.

    I hate Southern Rappers, they wack as F****………………Cant speak no proper english and they look retarded as hell…………..But on the real, that’s not Scarface on the phone though, lol…………F*** Southern Rappers.

    I’m disgusted at some of y’all comments on Southern Hip-Hop. VH1 is trying to put a spin on the Hip-Hop Honors. I really don’t think they intentionally did that to segregate Southern MC’s. I think they know Southern Hip-Hop is popular right now, so it is a marketing tactic I suppose. I agree with Scarface though it isn’t alright to separate a region in a honorary ceremony likt that. Besides, it loses its value at the same time to place a “Dirty South” stamp on a honorary ceremony for the Hip-Hop Hall of Fame. Athletes, Musician, etc. are enshrined for their contribution to their artform not their region. Its disgusting if U ask me!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BKwiteBwoy/ BKwiteBwoy

    I may not be a fan of the Dirty South’s MCs, but Scarface has always stood out. VH1 screwed it up – Honor Hip Hop and let the artists rep their regions when they make it that far.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/CaliFemme23/ CaliFemme23

    Ok wait..I gotta give it up to Outkast ans Scarface as far as southern…I dont consider Luda because hes from chicago originally…

    Theres dopeness in all states…. I BET NONE OF YOU CRACKHEADS KNOW THAT DJ PREMIER IS FROM HOUSTON TEXAS….TEXAS MUHFUGGAZ….HOUSTON AT THAT…..There’s wack candy azz rappers from the Chi (Yung Berg), and of course wack ones like Maino, Lil Mama and etc from the East. CORNY RAPPERS WHO GOT THE HOOK UP IS EVERYWHERE YOU SEE….. Now the south? I blame rappers who were the big daddies of these youngins that are putting out this hot SOULLESS, candy azz, pro homo, pro dysfunctional/chaotic mess some of you call hip hop. Listen straight up Hip Hop is about growth and when i hear songs about a rapper killin this ni**a that ni**a like a 3:30 min death sentence its NOT HIP HOP. We live in an age where everything is turned upside down….As for Scarface, BIG UP i met him when i was a freshman in high school so long ago and he was there before Common, Swizz Beats, A Tribe Called Quest, Dilla, They (Geto Boys) been making records since 1987 i remember all of that. The thing is this though, Scarface is one of the musical daddies of what we are hearing now, if you put Lil Wayne, Jeezy, T.I. and Gucci in the same room and ask then whos their inspirations in emceeing/rapping im sure the second rapper behind Pac that come out their mouth will be Big Face…. Nuff Said.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/U_InquireMi/ U_InquireMi

    um…….how do y’all know who’s gettin money in Hip Hop? As far as I’m concerned if you aren’t Kanye, 50, LL, Jay, Diddy. Cube, Snoop, TI, Common, MC Lyte, Queen latif, Sad to say but Lil’Wayne then you aren’t eatin as y’all would say. Why, because no matter what they represent Hip Hop right? Right, and they are doing what most of these wack ass one hit wonders would never do. Point is, not many hip hop artist sell period no matter where they’re from. Only a “select” few sell records check it yourself. You niggas need to get off that “The south is eatin, and NY west coast niggas is hatin *Vice versa*” s**t cuz last i checked Waka Flocka, Gucci, Jim Jones, Santana and the rest of them gimmick niggas don’t move units or haven’t put an album out yet.

    @DJfreezrock….we know where Premo is from, and that’s coo but he came up here cuz he wasn’t getting the proper love, so he made the adjustment. Just like Fat Joe went to Miami.

    Personally if fans from the south feel as if the south took over, then why do you continue to complain about people not letting y’all in? If dudes would leave their block and travel they would realize NY has been playing their s**t for years. Now I don’t listen to Southern rap like Gucci, Baby, and all them other gimmick dudes because that s**t doesn’t appeal to me and I have the f**kin right to feel that way, that’s called an opinion. Just like dudes down there say NY artists talk about the same thing and it’s not hot to them. That’s fine but I travel and I know for a fact dudes in the south still resent NY and don’t show our s**t too much love, that’s fine too but you need to sit down and ask are Ny’ers the real haters?

    I WILL SAY THAT I AM BIASED ALSO WHEN IT COMES TO HIP HOP, I GREW UP WITH THE EAST COAST AND LOVED THE WEST COAST, BUT THE SOUTHERN RAPPERS (NOT ALL) REALLY NEVER HAD LYRICAL GAME!!! THE MUSIC IS USUALLY ABOUT SOME STUPID DANCE AND SIMPLE LYRICS THAT A 8 YEAR OLD CAN MAKE UP!!!
    THAT IS JUST ME!!!

    THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH — THE ABILITY TO TALK ALL THE SH*T YOU WANT AND NOT GIVING A F*CK WHAT THE NEXT PERSON THINK OR SAY!!!

    I see a lot of Cherry picking here some folks want to say southern artist usch as Ludacris isn’t really from the south. Well if that’s the case Kanye West (GA), Mary J Blige (GA) , Snoop Dogg ( Mississippi) are all from the south. wait let’s Just add the D.O.C for those who don’t know who he is… you can bascially say he started Gangsta rap…He is the person who taught Dr Dre to produce at a higher level..not to mention he produced all of NWA’s album and The CHRONIC…..btw he’s from THE SOUTH too Dallas texas to be exact!!!

    Let’s keep it real Hip Hop culture and Rap has borrowed and sampled from music created in the South such as Jazz, R+B, Gospel, Bee Bop etc… and the Caribbean as well

    In a non related info tibit…. Tookie Williams co founder of the crips is also originally from the south

    btw I agree with FaceMob 100%

    SCARFACE IS RIGHT AND WRONG ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Vh 1, just recently even started The Vh 1 Hip Hop Honors. THE MAIN THING HE DON’T WANT TO ACCEPT IS, VH 1 IS NOT EQUIVELANT TO THE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS OR THE GRAMMY’S. It sounds like he aslo equating the vh1 show with the rock hall of fame. Vh1 is a brand like MTV and Bet ALL OWNEDBY ONE COMPANY. LAST I CHECKED THAT COMAPNY WAS VIACOM. MOST BLACK FOLKS DON’T EVEN KNOW ABOUT WHAT I JUST SAID. IF VH1 “THEMED” THIS YEAR’S SHOW AS THE DIRTY SOUTH HONEREE SHOW, IT’S THERE SHOW TO DO AS THEY PLEASE. FACE IS ALSO MAKING A MISTAKE USING THE TERM “HIP HOP”. Forget about the Sugar Hill reference, or that word describing culture. HIP HOP TO ME SIGNIFIES, THE END OF RAP. I BELIEVE THERE ARE RAPPERS, AND HIP HOP ARTIST. THE RAPPER IS THE BANK, AND THE HIP HOP ARTIST IS THE BORROWER!!
    SCARFACE IS A RAPPER WHO NEVER ATTAINED THE FINANCIAL STATUS OF A SUCCESFULL HIP HOP ARTIST! HIP HOP IS ALL ABOUT MONEY! RAP IS ALL ABOUT MUSIC! IT’S THAT SIMPLE!! PIMP C WASN’T NO HIP HOP ARTIST, BUT THEY USED THE TERM, BECAUSE AFTER bIGGIE AND pAC GOT killed, the artist along with mass media adapted to that term. Hip Hop means I wanna be f**king rich! A rapper wants you to hear his music. Face needs to stop giving VH 1 so much credit! These people run all the major music channels. He knows that this may be the only chance the getto boys would be honored anyway! They were not mainstream and they never would have been because the didn’t fit the Hip HOP model. These niggas are ugly aggresive and mean everything they rapped about..tooo real for the masses, but the music was world class! PEOPLE I COULD GO ON AND ON BUT SCARFACE HAS NO ARGUMENT HERE. VH1 IS AS CLOSE TO THE HALL OF FAME HE WOULD EVER GET AT THIS POINT..SO GO GET THE DAMN HONOR MAN!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sucker4prettyfeet/ sucker4prettyfeet

    People also need to realize this…. THE SOUTH IS THE FACE OF MUSIC RIGHT NOW! FROM RICK ROSS TO USHER TO LUDA! WHAT I HEAR ABOVE ALL IS WE BLACK FOLKS WANT THERE DO EVEN WHEN THEY DON’T DESERVE IT! THE MARRIAGE BETWEEN THE RAPPER AND HIS BEAT WAS TRADED IN FOR AN IMAGE NOT EVERYONE CAN ATTAIN OR SUSTAIN. RAP MUSIC IS ONE BRAND. THE TERM HIP HOP RUINED THAT. DON’T FORGET THAT THROUGH TRICKERY, GREED AND STUPIDITY…HAVEN’T YOU NOTICED THAT THAT HIP HOP TERM IS PRIMARILY USED BY MOGULS, OR WANNA BEES….NIGGAZ RAP..RAP KEEPS IT AT THE UNIVERSAL LEVEL, BUT AGAIN AFTER BIGGIE AND PAC GOT TOOK OUT..A RAPPER WAS DEFINED AS AN AGGRESSIVE BLACK MALE WITH LIMITED GOALS AND WAS MORE LIKELY TO ROB, STEAL, FIGHT OR KILL. WATCH THIS AND I’M DONE…EMINEM TO MY KNOWLEDGE RARELY IF NEVER REFERED TO HIMSELF AS A”HIP HOP ARTIST.” HE BODLY WAS MARKETED AS WHITE RAPPER…RAPPER, FROM DETROIT. LUCKY FOR HIM HE MANAGED TO SELL MORE CD’S THAN ALL OF THE HIP HOPPERS AND OTHER RAPPERS. HE DDID THAT ON THE BACKS OF HIP HOPPERS LIKE NELLY AND OTHERS WHO ALREADY HAD WHITE KIDS BUYING, SO WHEN THEY COULD GET IT FROM THEY OWWN KIND…SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO EM… THEN HE COSIGNS 50 AND SOLD HIM AS A RAPPER, BUT 50 AFTER VITAMIN WATER AND SOME MUSIC SUCCESS, HE TELLS YOU HE’S A HIP HOP ARTIST AND HIP HOP IS SO COMPETITIVE, YET WITHOUT DRE AND EM PROPPING HIM UP WE PROLLY WOULDN’T HAVE EVER HEARD OF THIS DUDE….THE NIGGA AIN’T GOTTA DO ANYTHING NOW BUT STAY ALIVE BECAUSE HE’S RICH NOW!!! AGAIN..HIP HOP IS ALL ABOUT CASH…TALENTLESS CASH…WE ARE BEEING SOLD MOSTLY PROPPED UP ARTIST’S WHO SHINE OFF OF ADVANCE MONEY….KILL HIP HOP, RETURN RAP. SCARFACE IS MAD BECAUSE AT THIS POINT, HIS CHANCES OF A PIECE OF JAY Z, DIDDY OR 50 PIE AIN’T HAPPENING.

    wtf is he babbling about? Who cares. People from the south talking about segregation, but in respect to black with other blacks? LOL Oh classic.

    This is consistent with how Scarface has always positioned himself. He never liked the “gangsta” -v- “conscious/positive” distinction that marketing flakes dream up. He’s just about his art and his fraternity.

    I feel Face on this one. Why would he want to line himself up with all these wack ass-non sentence formin no making sense ass Emcees (I use the term loosely). Its like a healthy fast 40 yard dash monster being put in to compete in the special Olympics. Alot of these cats are far far farrrrrrrrr from Face when it comes to lyrics, flow, substance and feel. I wouldnt want to be surrounded by the “Dirty South” either when it comes to their lastest best artist. Them niggaz suck. And they aint sayin s**t

    THIS IS FOR ERNEST_SMITH — THIS MIGHT BE A SURPRISE TO YOU, BUT NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE ARE FROM THE SOUTH ORIGINALLY!!!
    AND ANOTHER THING, I DID NOT DISS ALL RAPPERS FROM THE SOUTH, BUT I GUESS YOU DID NOT READ THAT ALSO!!!
    AND YOU SAY YOU GUYS DO YOUR OWN THING, THAT IS TRUE, BUT ONE THING FOR SURE ABOUT YOU, YOU ARE DEFINETELY A FOLLOWER, I SEE NO ORIGINALITY ANYWHERE FROM YOU!!!
    RADIO IS ALL ABOUT WHO IS PAYING UNDER THE TABLE!!! IF YOU WANT YOUR MUSIC HEARD, MONEY IS PAID NO MATTER HOW GOOD OR BAD YOU ARE!!!
    BUT I GUESS, NO I KNOW YOU ARE DEFINETELY A FOLLOWER!!! BECAUSE IF SOMEONE DOES NOT LIKE THE MAJORITY OF SOUTHERN RAPPERS BECAUSE OF STYLE, DELIVERY, SOUND, SLANG ETC, YOU GUYS GET ALL HOT AND BOTHERED AND CLAIM THAT THE PERSON IS HATING, BUT YOU JUST DID THAT ALSO WHEN YOU SAID THAT NY IS GARBAGE, AND YOU SAY THAT THE SOUTH IS KEEPING IT REAL!?!?!? YEAH, YOU ARE RIGHT, THE COMMERIALIZED RAPPERS FROM THE SOUTH ARE KEEPING IT REAL —- REAL GARBAGE!!!
    IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DEBATE ON ANY TOPIC AND THIS IS GOING STRAIGHT OUT TO YOU, I WOULD NOT SUGGEST IT, I WOULD HURT YOU WITH MY DANGEROUS RHETORIC!!! BUT I GUESS THAT IS A WHITE WORD ALSO IN YOUR BOOK, OR ANY WORDS THAT COME STRAIGHT FROM THE WEBSTER’S DICTIONARY IS BEING A SELLOUT OR UNCLE TOM.
    YOU ARE A JOKE AND I WANT YOU TO COME AT ME WITH ANY TOPIC BECAUSE I KNOW I WOULD WIN AND I WOULD MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE THE BLACK FORREST GUMP — PLEASE, I NEED THE VERBAL STIMULATION!!!

    I JUST LOVE THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, THE ABILITY TO SPEAK ALL THE SH*T YOU WANT AND NOT GIVING A F*CK WHAT THE NEXT PERSON SAY, THINK, OR FEEL!!! THAT MEANS TO SIMPLE MINDED BAST*RDS LIKE YOUR BACKWARD A$$ CAN BASICALLY EAT A D*CK!!!
    COME BATTLE ME, I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DUEL!!!
    OOPS, BIG WORDS FOR YOU AGAIN, MAYBE YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE!!!

    Yeah I feel Face too….I mean how can you not feel Scarface anyway. I think that VH1 may have had their heart in the right place but rap is rap no matter where it comes from….at least good rap is anyway. On the other hand UGK, 8ball & MJG, Outkast, Geto Boys, & 2 Live Crew were pioneers for the South and should be distinguished from these Wocka Flocka Soulja Gucci boy Juiceman Young Money cornball azz cats thats out now.

    scarface has always been unrated

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mike_diesel27/ mike_diesel27

    Why is it when people start saying rappers from the South suck, they name all the guys that really suck? They always wanna call out Soulja Boy, Hurrican Chris, Waka Flocka, Gucci Mane, etc. It’s easy to call them out because they aren’t that good. You notice they leave out guys like, Z-Ro, Scarface, Juvenile, Bun B., B.G., T.I., Luda, Jeezy, Webbie, and the list goes on. Bottom line, all coasts and every area has rappers that suck! Surprisingly, the biased doesn’t go both ways. We listening to New Yorkers out here. We listen to West Coast Music out here. It’s NO biased as far as music goes down here. But as for you people on the “Left” and the “Right” of us, the same CANNOT be said…

    Scarface has always been one of my favs ever since his Geto Boys days.

    Anyway, first time I heard that “Dirty South” thing was from the Goodie Mob. . . .a Southern Rap group. Hell it was the title of one of their songs.
