Geto Boys (originally spelled Ghetto Boys) is a hip hop group from Houston, Texas, consisting of Music/{{Scarface}}, Willie D and Bushwick Bill. The original Ghetto Boys consisted of: Prince Johnny C, Sire Jukebox, DJ Ready Red and Little Billy, the dancer who later came to be known as Bushwick Bill. The group released a mostly unheard of album titled ''Making Trouble''. The group broke up shortly after and a new line-up was put together with the inclusion of Scarface and Willie D, both aspiring solo artists.
The Geto Boys earned notoriety for its transgressive lyrics which included [[{{gorn}} gore]], [[TheMentallyDisturbed psychotic experiences]], ColdBloodedTorture, [[AxCrazy homicidal maniacs]], [[{{sadist}} people who are extremely sadistic]], [[ILoveTheDead necrophilia]] and misogyny, shaping GangstaRap and pretty much inventing {{Horrorcore}}. Despite the explicit content of their songs, critic Alex Henderson argues that the group "comes across as much more heartfelt than the numerous gangsta rap...wannabes who jumped on the gangsta bandwagon in the early [[TheNineties '90s]]." The Geto Boys broke new ground with their soulful southern sound (a precursor to the Dirty South style).
The group's 1990 album ''The Geto Boys'' caused Def American Recordings, the label to which the group was signed at the time, to switch distributors from Creator/GeffenRecords to Creator/WarnerBrosRecords (with marketing for the album done by WB sister label Giant Records) because of controversy over the graphic portrayal of rape, necrophilia, murder, explicit sex, cartoonish violence, and hostility toward women. The album, however, was actually a compilation, consisting mainly of ten tracks taken from its 1989 album ''Grip It! On That Other Level'', as well as two new songs and one song from its debut LP, ''Making Trouble''.

* EyeScream: Bushwick Bill's song "Ever So Clear" is about the incident where, drunk on Everclear and high on various drugs, he attacked his girlfriend and shot himself in the eye.
-->And I'm glad that I'm here, G
-->But it's fucked up I had to lose an eye
