>Southern pioneer, paved the way for all future southern acts with the Geto Boys during the initial domination of East/West Coast hip-hop
>The original paranoid gangsta: Influenced Biggie and 2pac (who are considered by most the greatest of the genre) with paranoia infused lyrics, and dealing with drug dealing/crime in the first person
>One of the most consistent rappers in the industry, has never dropped a bad album
>Takes a long history of southern music like blues/country where he deals with depressing topics and details his troubling life akin to hiphop blues
>Has created which is considered one of the best hip-hop songs ever made (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbQEI4Wt70w)
Why hasn't his legacy been cemented by the general hip-hop community? Every rapper in the game holds him in "awe", they literally refer to him as "your favorite rapper's favorite rapper" but leave it at that.
i don't follow 'face terribly closely, but i've always thought he was talented.
this album in particular is dope.

Not to detract from his legacy but the SUC and Scarface are in different leagues, not to mention the fact Screw was a DJ/producer not an MC so their legacy and influence are different in this case.
Mainly talking about emceeing.

If you haven't heard it already. The Fix is a masterpiece. If I remember correctly even The Source gave it their rare 5 mic rating.
