Nobody does real talk like Reggie Ossé a.k.a. Combat Jack. The former rap industry attorney, media executive, author, and Internet radio talk-show personality now hosts The Combat Jack Show, where hip-hop's biggest names are put on the front line. The questions will be tough—and shots will be fired. Co-hosted by Dallas Penn, Premium Pete, and Just Blaze, The Combat Jack Show appears every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday on Complex TV.
In this episode of The Combat Jack Show Scarface breaks down why he feels rap music has progressively gotten worse. "I feel like the powers that be are intentionally dumbing down our craft," he states. "Because the dumbest shit I ever heard is on the radio right now." Scarface goes on to describe that the climate has changed, and there's still quality music to be heard. However, the disparity in quality music frustrates him. "I want to say this shit as diplomatic and as responsible as I can, and not be offensive to nobody. When urban hip-hop sounds like this, and suburban hip-hop sounds like that, I kind of feel fucked up."
Later on Combat Jack tells Scarface a story that's mind-blowing to the Southern rapper. His priceless reaction simply can't be put into words. If you enjoyed this episode, watch Action Bronson talk about his stage show and producers he'd want to work with on The Combat Jack Show below.
