Records.įor their following album, We Can’t Be Stopped, the Boys went back to Houston’s Rap-A-Lot Records, the label that created the group in the first place. This prompted Rubin to arrange alternative distribution through Warner Bros. However, the Boys had a falling out with Geffen, the label’s distributor, who didn’t want anything to do with the Boys’ graphic, violent, misogynistic lyrics. The Geto Boys was remixed by producer Rick Rubin, whose Def American label they were signed to. A year before, in 1990, they released their eponymous album The Geto Boys, which contained music from their first two albums, Making Trouble (1988) and Grip It! On That Other Level (1989). Released in 2005, The Foundation serves as the Geto Boys’ last studio album.Twenty-six years ago, the Geto Boys were quickly becoming one of the most controversial groups on the Houston music scene. Rick Rubin was a part of the program, in the early parts of it. Like I said, I love what he did for Hip Hop. So, I’m assuming that he might have did like my shit and then again maybe not.
“Every time I see Rick Rubin it’s like we all cool and shit. Maybe somebody said that shit just trying to be funny or some shit, but somebody said that Rick Rubin didn’t like my shit,” said Scarface.
And I could have just been reading it wrong. “I got a lot of respect for Rick and what he did, what he’s doing. Prior to speaking on the possibility of a new Geto Boys album, Scarface expressed his appreciation for Rubin as a Hip Hop pioneer, but did express some uncertainty when he stated that he was unsure if the producer was a fan of his music. Rubin worked heavily with Scarface as well as Willie D and Bushwick Bill on The Geto Boys, an album that featured a handful of reworked tracks from Grip It! On That Other Level and Making Trouble on top of several new songs from the group. Otherwise, I ain’t doing it,” Scarface revealed. If Rick Rubin produced a Geto Boys album, not a song, a fucking album.
“You know what, if Rick Rubin would produce another Geto Boys album I’d do it. While chopping it up with Hard Knock TV, Scarface revealed that he’d be willing to create another Geto Boys album only if it was produced by iconic record producer Rick Rubin. For fans of Houstonian Hip Hop trio Geto Boys there might be the slightest chance of a new album from the group, but a new project from the Geto Boys comes with a rather hefty stipulation.
