Scarface challenges to Icecube to verzus. But in this situation, there is a twist to the challenge. Singers can create challenges and face-offs between themselves. In an appearance with Geto Boys brethren Willie D on The Breakfast Club, Scarface challenged fellow rap legend Ice Cube to a Verzuz battle. Scarface wants Cube to play one of his own tunes.
“I’ll do one with Cube on [the] solo [tip],” says Scarface added.
Cube has not announced what he will sing on the stage as Scarface wants Cube to sing one of his own tunes. To return the favor that Scarface will sing his favorite Ice Cube song.
Scarface also had more of a say about this up-and-coming challenge. “I’ll play all my favorite Cube shit; he’ll play all his favorite Face shit. I’ll beat him with that. I’ll kill him with the favorite Cube shit ’cause I got favorite Cube shit that can’t help anybody touch.”
Tune in on August 3rd for the challenge on Verzus.
Been Around Since The 1980’s
Due to the thoughtful, yet provocative subject matter and excellent wordplay they were known for, Scarface and Ice Cube were often compared since they both started their careers in the late ’80s. On Scarface’s third solo studio album, The Diary, Cube even appeared on the classic track “Hand of the Dead Body,” with the Houston icon returning the favor with a verse on Cube’s 2008 single “Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It.”.
