The fact that you cannot tell whether the songs are new or not tells you how timeless that Scarface music is.
Exactly timeless art
That part! Facemob music is tremendous.
🎯💯
Truth
The fact ppl didn’t know he actually wrote , performed and produced all those hits smh he’s a triple threat
I love how transparent Dad is with his emotions.
Agreed! Love how he lets the music affect him and earnestly listens and learns. From there you see the genuine appreciation for it all.
His pops is cool as tho 💯💯
Love your vids.. Dad is great but bro it would be nice you see you do a little more research b4
He one of the goat reactors low key
That riff is Isaac Hayes hung up on my baby
I was in high school when 'The Diary' dropped. We were studying Edgar Allen Poe. As an assignment, we had to write dark poetry. I wrote the lyrics to 'Never Seen A Man Cry'. I got a 💯.😂 Thanks Face!
Reading poetry is what got me started writing raps. I started off taking a poem we read in class that touched me and I changed some of the words to fit my own life. Must have been 5th or 6th grade. Takes me way back…
Biter 😆
😒So you didn’t really write the paper. Not cool at all.
😂😂😂😂Did your Teacher know what was up and tell nice try I'm m a Scarface fan or did you fool your teacher?😁
@@YakThaWiseman72Lol,"The Diary" dropped in '94. Computers wasn't putin then and ain't no Google for plagiarism and I doubt his teacher was a hip hop fan in 94.
This is a good showcase of why Scarface is in a lot of rappers top 5. His cadence and storytelling is second to none.
Facemob is one of Scarface's nicknames.
MC Eiht as in "8" is a west coast legend. Straight Up Menace is the theme song from the movie Menace II Society. It's a classic and goes perfectly with the movie.
knew every word to compton's most wanted....
Actually Facemob was the name of the group he formed (Devin, DMG, Smit-D, 350 & Sha-Riza) but I guess he went with it by himself later on.
I chuckled because he was genuinely confused by Facemob. You gotta be deep into it to know about all that.
Eiht was in menace too, played it great. Not sure why he didn't get more roles after that.
@@bccsivxx-xxivviiHe had a small cameo in Boyz N The Hood…..you see him when Tre walks in the bbq
Bruv, you've done your father a great service by introducing him to hip-hop. Thank you.
1,000,000%
"Never Seen a Man Cry", was the biggest rap song here on Kenya when in came out, people played it everywhere, no one had ever heard rap like that. Scarface has complex rhymes.
Shout out to Kenya!
@@frontroom my favorite Geto Boys song is "The World is Ghetto".
This is beautiful. Just a young man and his dad sharing their love of music and their experiences with it. Top notch.
thanks man 🤝
same relationship I have with my father, much respect @@frontroom
Scarface was legit certified 51/50 as a teenager. Tried to kill himself because he didn't like how he looked and was thrown in an insane asylum. His first album solo album "Mr Scarface is Back" is a masterpiece where he basically focuses all that manic depression into gangster stories. Mike Dean started out as a session musician for Rap A Lot records as well as an engineer/mixer. 94 is when he started to fully establish himself as a producer most notably on Scarface's The Diary.
Legendary brother Tony!💪🏿👏🏾
Facts man. I read his book and was surprised about his story. I wanna movie about it.
Mike Dean came up working with Legendary Traxter who crafted the Chicago sound of the 90's.
@@thetruest7497 Wow, I never knew that... Legendary Traxter is underrated as well.
@TonyBambino word I didn't either until recently. Then it made sense because Do or Die was on Rap A Lot and obviously Twista was working with Do or Die.
Scanning the comments, I haven’t seen it mentioned, but this session is made even more special (and feels so fortunate) when we realize that Scarface dealt with serious health issues in recent years. So thankful we still have him!
Also if you’re new to Smile and Mary Jane, the videos for those songs capture their vibes perfectly. Definitely worth watching.
He looks great I was surprised haven’t seen him in a while
Facts....I was worried how much weight he lost before his son gave him a kidney. We still have Brad Jordan. I am grateful.
@@harrymothowl8923yea I remember he needed a kidney and I think he also had covid
Yes, so glad to see him able to get back to doing what he loves. He’s truly a legend to many.
Going further back issues with depression and suicidal thoughts
You and your Dad are curating a spirit of culture, father/son bonding and just being plain DOPE. Good job to the two of you!!
This Tiny Desk was epic! Great to see Face get his flowers, even more beautiful that he’s still with us. Can’t help but think that performing the classics are healing.
Loved that you guys covered this, that Tiny Desk concert rocked and was totally unexpected. The Geto boys are so criminally underrated.. they were rapping about mental health issues some 30 odd years ago when it was seen as a taboo subject in the black community.
Geto Boys and Rap a Lot are the foundation of the south. And even more. First to do it real raw and truthful. NWA were bringing their message, then came Geto Boys. In a more serious way.
Was hoping that Devin came in on finer thangs.
Mike Dean started his career working with Scarface, doing co production and keys. Their music relationship goes back to 93 I believe. Scarface is also a producer as well, that's why they have such good chemistry. Side note: Scarface was 2Pac's favorite rapper, and his cadence was heavily influenced by Scarface, that's where the similarities come from.
...when I first listened to Smile (and all the other thousands of times I listened to the song) I struggled to tell them apart on their different verses. Until I locked myself in and could seperate the voices. They really are similar to each other actually...
He actually worked with Selena before Scarface. Very versatile producer.
False y'all get up on here saying anything
@@texasjunge6261you are correct
Scarface tiny desk show made the hairs on my arms stand up and gave me chills
He's the G.O.A.T.
These are old school classics . I grew up in Houston, and yah Scarface is every rapper’s favorite rapper. Great lyrics , word play and story telling ..Way ahead of his time and can still do it.Glad he made it past his health scare . Can’t wait for you to cover more H-town legends . I see that DJ Screw poster in the background ❤
Right they didn’t even really get deep into the lyrics
Great timing! His Tiny Desk was an INSTANT CLASSIC...Loved his dedication to 2Pac and giving love to Mike Dean!!!
Scarface's Tiny Desk featured 3 legends. First, Scarface himself...shout out to Face and H-Town! This took me back to my college years in Texas back in the 90s. Second, the Back Yard Band...shout out to the BYB --representing the DMV--arguably the baddest go-go band around--holding down Face w/ Mike Dean--a legend in his own right. I really enjoyed this one, fellas...keep up the good work!
Now Kai has to go learn about Back Yard Band and what GoGo is and then introduce kais dad to some hip hop with heavy gogo influence, such as Rising Down by the Roots crew
@@brandonhendrix938I told them about Adele's Hello by BYB and I also think Jill Scott's "It's Love" would be a good one too when U mention songs influenced by Go Go culture.
This just shows how beautiful hip hop is, a father and son from different generations coming together and experiencing classics together. Larry June has a great Tiny Desk performance too, you all should do a reaction to that.
This is my 1st time watching the channel. I absolutely loved this reaction. Y'all gave us raw emotions. I'm from Houston & I love Scarface. I was so surprised to see him on Tiny Desk. Nostalgic & so chill!!!
Thanks for tuning in!
H-town in the house! Thanks for the love guys! We are so proud of them here in Houston
MC Eiht as in the number 8. Facemob is just another nickname. This performance was so good! In his book, Scarface talks about how involved he was in his own production style & choices. He said that when they grew up they listened to all kinds of music including rock because hip hop wasn't necessarily around yet. So his influences are pretty organic. He's definitely a top 5 hip hop artist for me. In no particular order Pac, Big, Nas, Face & Cube. He has tons of great stories in his music. You can listen to any of his albums and tell he cares about the body of work as a whole not just the singles and cash grab anthems. He's deep!
He also had a group called FaceMob he put out.
All his albums are great. Definitely top 5. But I've got him, pac, ugk, outkast, meth, & em. Yea that's 6 I know.
I loved that he used the Backyard Band (BYB) for this. It's almost like a sign of respect since the Tiny Desk is in DC. BYB is a famous Go-Go cover band in DC. People pay to see them perform and have for decades. One of their popular covers is Hello by Adele and it's AMAZING. I've been a Face fan for years and I had the same reaction as Dad when he said he couldn't imagine what it would be like 😂 which is why I pressed play so fast when I saw it LOL. Glad you guys enjoyed it 😊
Thank you for that insight
Scarface, Slick Rick & Pac best storytellers of all time.
I'm happy you two actually paid attention to Scarface's words. He has always been the King of the South in my opinion. I'm from Houston, but I'm not biased. That man is a lyrical genius. 💯
Your dad is the sweetest, I am just like him. Anything that touches my heart I’m CRYING ok. I can’t help it. He has a beautiful soul, I’m crying with you dad 🤣
I find myself crying with him also. He has such a sweet soul
Oh yeah guys he’s cool.. am Jamaican 🇯🇲 I would love to put him on to some reggae music
@@kirklewis8146 my grandpa is from Jamaica, love reggae.
The emotion you will feel listening to Scarface is un-real. This man was a big part of my young self and still love to this day. Love to see Scarface getting his flowers while he's still here. Thank you for sharing for a newer generation that should understand this is where rap-hip-hop comes from. A time where life is described in a verse. Pouring emotion out on paper. Legend
Scarface's "The Fix" is also a good album to react to. It came out within a year after Jay's The Blueprint and helped launch Def Jam South at the time. Also had Kanye West & Neptunes production. Both albums complement each other very well in my opinion.
On My Block is one of my favorite songs ever. All these songs are from the 90’s and early 2000’s. All are certified classics, you need to react to the originals, although I could listen to the band all night!
Dad was fightin those tears!❤🙏
I cried too, dad when I watched! I’ve been listening to him since I was a kid. Such a rich, deep voice. He’s AMAZING. He looks so healthy after his transplant. So happy for him!! And Mike Dean. I mean.. it’s Mike Dean, so good!
This was A Great Tiny Desk Concert! Scarface Is Extraordinarily Sublime!..Outstanding Music, Melodious Singers And Profound Lyrics. Scarface Is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Great Great Reactions👍🏾💯💯💯💯👍🏾
My Husbands favorite artist! Texas born n raised!! Honestly, Scareface had to grow on me. He is a great storyteller. The older I get, I want this. Storytelling is such an art. We don't have it anymore in music.
Agreed,,,random raps don't work for me anymore
Face is hands down one of the best lyricists to ever do it. He seems to be overlooked by a lot of people in that regard. This concert cements that even more for me.
Him and Andre are in my top 5
For me it's Scarface and Nas. But Scarface voice and his style is silk and poetic.
Nas is right up on the top too, but personally I like Scarface's delivery more. He's almost musical when he does it and he's just so smooth.
He is in a lot of rappers top 5. Face gets love. I def agree. He is amazing
I’ve listened to this tiny desk concert 5 times in the last few days. I’m just happy Scarface was able to do this. He was extremely sick during the pandemic and we thought we were going to lose another hip hop legend.
facts.....I thought it was over for "face".....but God knew better......preachhhh
Mike Dean was instrumental in Scareface’s earlier music as well as being producer, audio engineer and mixer for some of hip hops biggest artist. He got his most notable start from working with Scarface in the early 90’s
Don't forget about N.O Joe
I didn't even know he did Tiny Desk! Scarface is my favorite artist Hands Down!! He has even ran for political office in Texas. All the songs played were older except for "My Block". That was from the album The Fix back in 2002. His entire catalog is worth reviewing on your channel; endless content for you!
Yeah it’s really good. Came out maybe a week ago. This reaction happened almost immediately
When I have kids, I hope I can be as half as welcoming and open to my kid’s interests as this man has been to his son’s.
And I also hope that my kids can also be vulnerable and inviting with their passions as the son has been with his father.
Sounds like you’ve got the right mindset for that to happen. Thanks for watching! - Kai’s dad
Amazing episode
I lost my father back in 2014 to cancer and this fills my soul to see you and your dad vibing and creating eternal memories. Enjoy my friend!
I love so much when a person from a different culture shows much appreciation and love for another culture's crafts, its so heart warming.This is so great.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agree 👍💯💯👍
Pops is really a low key hip hop head!! He knows good stuff!
I love how you two use music as a form of bonding I hope I can have this type of relationship with my son when he's older love this channel man keep it up
You and your dad are so precious. I love how your dad has the most sincere reactions. Thank you for sharing with us !
The diary is good but The Untouchable is a classic 💯. This channel is so amazing, because I'm in my late 40s so I know all of these songs I grew up with this music but to see the dad's natural reaction is great and really organic. Great channel great videos
The Mind Playing Tricks On Me sample is Issac Hayes, "Hung Up On My Baby". Most of these songs Scarface performed are from the 90s except for the first song. BTW...Mike Dean has been around forever (he got into Hip Hop in the early 90s via Scarface and J Prince's label, Rap-A-Lot)... Mike was reintroduced to Gen Z via Kanye and Travis Scott. Review Scarface and Ice Cube's, "Hand of the Dead Body" (1994).
I just love how they just purely loved the music from one of the greatest storytellers of hip-hop. Scareface is a whole mood ❤❤❤❤
He is.
Big fan of you guys from the UK, you remind me so much of the musical bond I had with my dad who is no longer with us. Keep up the good work guys, really love the vibe of your interaction, and the deep appreciation of different genres.
i'm feelin pops, he not scared to let his emotions flow
Scarface has such an extensive library of music and different albums reflect different subject matter. I would highly recommend doing his greatest hits album as an introduction do him as an artist as whole.
Dad has a great ear. The Cymade sample is Dove also on the Fugees The Score.
so many hip hop records sampled that album.
Cymande
The sample is from an Isaac Hayes song.
Appreciate the moments you have with your dad man ...❤
This is excellent music.❤❤❤
Face definetley was an influence on Pac. It’s evident in his cadence. Listen to him then listen to Pac and you can hear how Pac modeled his flow. That’s why it was only natural for Pac to make a song with Scarface. On Smile they rhyme with the same pattern as if Pac is showing homage to him.
Please do never seen a man cry until i seen a man die video your dad is go bananas one of the best story tellers ever
All his solo albums are classics...no misses
Not one miss at all
I just heard this concert a few minutes before clicking this link, and loved it. Then I listened to it again with your commentary and appreciated it twice as much. Great insight, guys!
I am really happy that your pops appreciate great music, and you can see the genuine joy he feels when hearing it
Mike Dean was working with Scarface since this album in 91'. And that was 3 years or more he was with his group Geto Boys in 88'. My mind playing tricks on me... A classic all around world
This performance cemented Scarface, in my top 5! THAT'S MY COMMENT
Really enjoyed how you two got into this great performance! Your pop’s is really graceful with his time to take in the music and not judge it. Thank you for making these videos ✌🏼
This is the first video I've seen from this channel,, but I'm already liking the actual hip hop knowledge 👌🏾
The Fix is one of my all-time favorite albums and highly recommended if he strikes your fancy. Great guest appearances on there too. I had tickets to see him a few years ago but his show got cancelled for health reasons so it's good to see him here!
Scarface is your favorite rappers, favorite rapper. Hes my favorite MC of all time....every album he's dropped is a classic. Every single one, back from '91-now
Word!
This was awesome. I love how you two approach these listening sessions. You guys are taking me back to some of my faves and giving me a new perspective on each.
Awesome video guys! Scarface is a genius!
Part of me wishes I could hear his catalog for the first time again but I have so many memories wrapped up with his music. Legend!
Scarface have one of the best delivery! Lyrics and flow always on point. Not just a rapper a musician!
You need to do a reaction to Scarface’s song…Now I feel Ya!!! One of the greatest story telling songs of all time. Your dad will love it!!!
The Cymande album and a new pair of socks for dad's birthday! :D Lovely video as usual!
I’m so glad you covered this… This performance is a MASTERPIECE
On the song Smile for Me was a Chicago vocalist by the name of Johnny P. He was one of the most soulful and talented singers from Chicago. Very underrated. He did a lot of work with Do or Die and Twista.
J.P. Hasn’t got his flowers and he deserves dozens!
Facts RIP to him🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Amazing timing!! Wow thank you so much!!! Hope you react the studio tracks if these songs
Btw the song after "seen a man die" was called "Fuxk Faces" and was also feat. Devin the Dude , Tela & Too $hort. Thats why he only had 1 verse. Came out on his double disc album called (My Homies) cameout in 1998. Thats why he said "that didnt age well" for context.
The bond between you and your father is amazing!!! Watching him vibe to the instruments is priceless!!!
Great reaction! Love how you guys really tap in to good music. Love this channel keep going !
Backyard band are legends in the DMV!
I’m so glad he is getting his flowers. I enjoyed this
Absolutly love the energy and dialog between you two. It was entertaining to watch both your reactions and interests in the culture.
Coming from H-Town I'm very proud of my OG Scarface. #RIPBushWickBill
MC Eiht (8) was a part of the group Compton's Most Wanted before he went solo. He had a significant role (A-Wax) in the movie Menace II Society as well as Straight Up Menace from the sndtrk. No matter which way you go it's banger after banger. But the album Music To Driveby is the pinnacle. His solo album We Come Strapped is a classic. Eiht was also one of the west coast artists to maintain east coast love and respect through the issues in the 90s. There's a DJ Premier remix of the song Def Wish II. Preem actually executive produced his 2017 album Which Way Iz West, even lending some work on 4 tracks.
And his recent albums are great! So is the latest CMW album. Chill is throwing out beats like it’s nothing lately on the Blue Stamp label.
The piano part comes from the Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack 1972 song called “Be real black for me.” Which is the song that Scarface sampled.
Thanks for your review. Respect
Great reaction! Definitely one of the GOATs, one of the greatest storytellers and your rappers favorite rapper for sure. His feature list is legendary. Jay Z., Nas, Beanie Sigel, Ice Cube and many more. Mike Dean has been around since the 80s and actually got his big break producing for the Geto Boys and produced on their solo projects. He also worked with UGK early on.
Oh man, I'm so excited for you guys. You're gonna love Scarface, he's one of the greatest and he's arguably the greatest rapper from the south
He is the greatest rapper from the south period I’m from the Midwest
He’s top 10 easy all time in hip hop
This is just beautiful! My son and I watching Scarface and his son in a reaction vid by you and your Dad!! We love you guys and 'Mind Playin Tricks' is my all time favourite. Well done and keep inspiring ❤😊
This was awesome! I normally dont watch these types of videos, but this was A+ meaningful music and words by you both!
Its A LOT of people who saw this tint desk had such a emotional visceral reaction. I was teary the whole thing. I lost my friend to an overdose and this was what I needed to hear. Its hard to explain
Condolences and I send Love ❤
I discovered Scarface aka Facemob and MTV videos simultaneously... Scarface IS one of the great jewels of Hip Hop! This Tiny Desk SOUL concert that touched the SOUL of the artist himself, while delivering SOUL and rich depth to the listening audience? His back up singers AND THAT BAND???!!! Salute! Plus I think this is my 2nd time watching father and son/sun enjoy this frequency aka music together! Happy "new" yearz 2024
Classic. Seriously appreciate y’all doing this one ❤❤
I hope yall do reactions to each video of the every song that was performed in the tiny desk. The videos are deep and make the lyrics, which are already deep, soo much realler
All of these songs are old classics that are still relevant today. FACEMOB IS THAT GUY. Top 5 DOA
To rap about mental health and open up about the things that Scarface did, like contemplaying suicide, was extremely rare in that era of hiphop. And I think the courage to stand out and open up when you are not from the ”cool places” like new york at the time, is not matched until 2pac came along. I think that was what pac liked with scarface.
Never seen a man cry is my favorite Scarface song and I've never cried listening to it before in my life until I watched your Father tear up listening to it...probably because it reminded me of my father R.I.P.
Man, this music experience with your dad is so genuine.
You have to be a very good composer to be able to fit so much in little words. He’s amazing
I love watching you guys reactions to this great music. I saw this Tiny Desk when it was posted to my feed and loved every second, like dad, I was sorry it had to end. I also had a video in my feed titled: T-Pain - On Top of The Covers. I think you guys would really enjoy reacting to it.
Lol I love seeing you guys learn about Scarface together! Keep the video coming.
Love how you father feels the music and appreciations the emotions he feels when hearing great music
Yes, Yes and Yes. Everything ya'll said 😁Love how Dad & Son's knowledge coincides so melodically. They're both just musically inclined. Thanks Guys, Music is therapeutic! I needed that lol Much Love 💖🎼🎹🎸🎶✨
The GREATEST storyteller ever with real substance that made a whole generation reapect his artwork. Honestly Face is the 🐐🐐
I listen to the scarface's tiny desk a lot. I really enjoyed listening to it once more with you guys!
Overwhelmingly amazing!!!!!❤
