The movie is about one ruthless individual. 'The Godfather' is more like a family epic. It has this subtext of [family] honor. With 'Scarface,' there's this individualism thing. The film is about cold-blooded ambition. There's a lot of connection between the values of the movie and the values of hip-hop.

Scarface. There's a Biggie lyric, 'Never Get High on Your Own Supply' [from 'Ten Crack Commandments'] that comes right from the movie.
