Big Scarr's Posthumous album The Secret Weapon has dropped today. 1017 Records released the 17-track work nearly two months after Big Scarr's tragic death. The Secret Weapon features Gucci Mane, Key Glock, Pooh Shiesty, Enchanting, and Seddy Hendrinx. As a whole, the southern hip-hop artist left behind a worthy drop of hard-hitting trap tunes that reflects on his life both in and out of the streets.
With punch, flow, and style, Big Scarr exemplified his versatile rap capabilities throughout The Secret Weapon. His smooth and deep voice takes the spotlight in songs like "Straight Like That" and "I'm Him," with emphasis on his effortless bars. From one song to the other, the track list flows seamlessly, amounting to a soundtrack of Big Scarr's life. In "Try Being Me," the late-rapper leaves a haunting message: "no, they ain't stoppin' my legacy."
Big Scarr Leaves Behind His Legacy
Just in December, Big Scarr was found dead after an allegedly accidental overdose of prescription pills. 1017 Founder Gucci took to Instagram this week to announce that Big Scarr's last work would be released. In the announcement, Gucci wrote, "I hate that he’s not here to celebrate this great body of work that he worked so hard on!" The release follows an emotional battle between Gucci and Big Scarr's family members, who claimed he left them dry over funeral bills.
Gucci also leaves a message for Big Scarr's remembrance in their track, "Trappin n Rappin." He starts the track off with "long live the legend, my secret weapon, Big Scarr." Gucci first signed big Scarr in 2020, and the duo exclusively worked together throughout the Tennessee-born rapper's short-lived career. Work on the album had commenced prior to the rapper's unfortunate demise. The Secret Weapon is available to stream on all platforms, so be sure to check it out!
