Al Pacino played Tony Montana in the movie Scarface.
Rappers like to refer to movie criminals. Biggie mentioned Frank White who
is
played by Christopher Walken in The King of New York.
Anyway, if you haven't seen any of the two movies yet, i'd recommend you do
so.

Al Pacino in the film Scarface.

Tony Montana is a ficticious early 80's Cuban druglord that resided in
Miami. You ever heard of the movie Scarface with Al Pacino? That's where it
all originated. Listen closely to the theme music too and then take a
listen to Mobb Deeps' "G.O.D. Father Part III"...

"A man has only two things in this world: his balls, and his word."
Tony Montana is the infamous drug dealer/kingpin of the movie Scarface.
He was played by Al Pacino. Dialogue from the movie is sampled a lot
(especially in Geto Boys albums) and references to him pop up
everywhere. My all time favorite is that the movie is playing in
the background as Wesley Snipes makes his drunken rave about being
the king of everything in New Jack City.
