Posted Sep 27, 2002 12:00 AM

With his latest album, The Fix still lodged in the Top Fifty and closing in on a half-million copies sold, the middle-era of Scarface's career will be revisited on October 22nd with the release of Scarface's Greatest Hits.

The seventeen track collection picks up after the Houston-based MC's departure from the Geto Boys with 1991's Mr. Scarface Is Back and runs through the end of his stint with Virgin on 2000's Last of a Dying Breed. The album features a number of guests including 2Pac on "Smile," Ice Cube on "Hand of the Dead Body," and Master P on "Homies and Thugs."

Last year, Scarface took on the role of label head, running Def Jam South. In addition to signing Ludacris, Scarface issued The Fix on his own imprint. The album debuted at Number Four.
