Rap Battle 00's Bracket Round 1 Faceoff: Ghostface Killah (8) vs Scarface (9)

dnc · July 2018

I'm not sure Ghostface would have made my top 5 Wu Tang emcees by 2003, but dude's had a hell of a run. Dude can tell a story as well as anyone who's ever spit bars over a beat. He's still never had huge hits on his own but he's a must have collaborator who will bring any track up a level. He's probably going down quickly in this tournament but has mad respect in the rap community.

Like Ghostface, Scarface is part of a group that made the 90's bracket (Geto Boys in this case). While Bushwick Bill has the famous personality and profile, Scarface is the emcee that made Geto Boys a force. Also like Ghostface, Scarface isn't a hitmaker, but damn his flow is distinct and strong. Extra points for appearing in Idiocracy (and apparently being one of Mike Judge's favorite rappers).
