Meek Mill's New Song Inspired by 'Scarface' Intro?

It's no secret that crime movies like Scarface remain favorites among rappers to this day. Many emcees, including the new crop's favorite OGs, have likened themselves to Tony Montana. So, it makes sense that the Scarface intro song, composed by Giorgio Moroder, might one day be looked to as a source of instrumental inspiration.



The grave aura of the Scarface intro music feels familiar to that of Danja's production in "Stand Up," and is in keeping with the '80s influence in his music. I'm sure we all remember the time Danja recreated Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" from the ground up for Kevin Cossom, and the time he sampled the "Knight Rider Theme Song" for Ciara's "Echo."




However, given the climate in music after the "Blurred Lines" verdict, I'll avoid throwing around any terms that could directly link these two compositions. No snitching. But, it's definitely worth pointing out, especially since Danja's acknowledged the parallels himself.
