KOCH RECORDS AND THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD MOVEMENT TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM BY SCARFACE AND THE PRODUCT
ONE HUNNID WILL BE RELEASED ON FEBRUARY 21st, 2006
PRODUCTION BY SCARFACE, THE ALCHEMIST, TONE CAPONE AND JOHN BIDO
January 27th, 2006 (New York, NY) KOCH Records and The Underground Railroad Movement are proud to announce the new release from Scarface and The Product titled One Hunnid.
Scarface is arguably the Souths most admired rapper. After his stint as a member of the legendary Geto Boys, Scarface went on to an extremely successful solo career in 1991. Since then, Scarface has sold close to 10 million records. Virtually every Southern rapper _ including Ludacris and T.I. _ cites Scarface as the authority in modern Southern rap.
One Hunnid is the introductory effort from Faces new company _ The Underground Railroad Movement _ and is the result of an alliance hes formed with two of the most talented artists that the mainstream hip-hop world has yet to hear of: Bay Area rap veteran Will Hen and Jackson, Mississippi native Young Malice. Wil Hen has been developing his skills with Scarfaces twin ear producer Tone Capone and his street credibility is built from his unique Bay Area flow coupled with his real life tales of being a street pimp. Complementing Wil Hens West Coast flava is a voice from the South, Young Malice. Young Malice proved to have the raw Southern style that Scarface recognized as one of the most promising voices of the hood. The Product wasnt created necessarily by design; its more so the byproduct of one of raps elder statesmen feeling he had something special on his hands.
And while as an emcee Scarface appears on roughly 90 percent of the songs on Scarface Presents The Product, he also joins famed producer The Alchemist, longtime Geto Boys contributor John Bido, and Oakland-native Tone Capone to man production duties on a good portion of the project.
Tracklisting will be announced shortly.
