Mr. Scarface is Back (Rap-A-Lot, 1991) by Scarface

This album is another one that has tremendous sentimental value to me.  When I was learning to rap; I couldn't.  However, I could, kinda, sort of write.  I was also really inspired by hardcore Hip-Hop at the time.  To demonstrate free expression and concepts, the producer I was working with played me Scarface's debut.  He really emphasized the last track, "I'm Dead."  I was really moved by it and later realized the influence that he perhaps had on rappers that came along later in the 90s such as Biggie and Jay-Z.
