According to sources it is estimated that Scarface’s net worth is $500,000, an amount earned through his rapping career, although, Scarface has also succeeded when appearing on the big screen in such films as “Original Gangstas” (1996) and “Idiocracy” (2006), which also increased his net worth.

Scarface attended Woodson Middle School, and then started his career as a musician as a DJ under the name Akshen, which was uttered just like action. As Akshen, he recorded a single called “Scarface” in 1989 for Troy`s Short Stop Records, a label which was centered in Houston. Following that release, he joined the rap group Ghetto Boys after one member left them. He managed to release an album through the group for the record label called Rap-a-Lot, “Grip it! On That Other Level” also in 1989. This album turned out to be a major commercial success, and acquired him a fan base, regardless of the violent lyrics of the songs and an MTV radio ban.

After the album, he changed his name to Scarface, which he took from the 1983 Al Capone bio-pic film “Scarface”. In 1991 he released the first album under his new name, called “Mr. Scarface is Back”, which was extremely well received by public, his fame grew and eventually outshone the group, Ghetto Boys. Although his fame grew more and more with every solo album released, he stayed in the group. Needless is to say that his net worth was also boosted through the selling of the albums. All this peaked in 2001, when he received an award for Lyricist of the Year at Source Awards. It is also worth mentioning that Scarface became coordinator and president of Def Jam South recordings.

In an addition to his net worth, he released a book in 2015, “Diary of a Madman”, which depicts scenes from his childhood days until the Def Jam South days.

The Ghetto Boys (before the spelling change in 1990) consisted of Johnny C, Jukebox, and Raheem.
