23* DamnItFeelsGoodToBeAGangster: It helps that [[Music/GetoBoys his group]] was the TropeNamer.
24* GangstaRap: Type 1, although most of his earlier stuff (especially ''Mr. Scarface Is Back'') was Type 3.
25* IronicNurseryTune: He did this a couple times on his earlier albums. Most notably, 'Mr. Scarface Is Back'' opens with a tale of Scarface getting into a confrontation with some dope fiends, set to the tune of "The Itsy Bitsy Spider".

27* VillainProtagonist: On ''many'' of his songs, especially on the album ''Mr. Scarface Is Back''.
