    AZ is a Rare Breed of Emcee. I know Big Pun said it best on "John Blaze" one verse dead em all. But AZ Made that apparent with his "Life's A Bitch" Verse and in my opinion countless other times throughout his career. AZ isn't Underrated he's Overlooked......But BET and everyone who peeped this vid and Expressed LOVE know the deal.....

    For real I've been rockin with A since day one... the whole 20 (showing my age). Honestly, he's not underrated by those who know. Definitely number one in my book. The God hasn't had that mainstream commercial success people think make an emcee successful, and we should all be happy about that because once you let the machine guide you, you lose!

      That's what I b tellin niggas. Everyone always says he's underrated. Good rap hasn't been on the radio since the late 90's and even then there was some bullshit coming around. Hip Hop isn't dead it's just you have to find it yourself. Most people are simple minded and either don't want to look or just can't comprehend.

      Never admired a rapper the way I admire AZ 👏 the man is so real and raw he is my fav rapper of all time for real! Thank goodness for his caliber in da game.. and a million thanks to Nas to have discovered him.
      Also he is 🔥 those lips 😍 am a girl so I cant help but notice haha
      Him and Nas are da flyest gangstas for real. ❤

  • @dantenewyork7380
    @dantenewyork7380 Рік тому

    AZ is criminally underrated. when i send tracks like Rather Unique to cats today who want examples of artists I think are gold standard, they just don't get it.
    I got this mastered, other rappers'll craft it
    Weak and wicked camouflaged as killers how they speak and kick it
    Peep this uniqueness, non-believers I'm leaving speechless
    Left to choke as if skunk smoke was coming through the speakers
    Surgically nice with any verbal device, trife
    Breathing life into mics, my insight's beyond the twilight
    So die or fight, no surrender, no retreat
    Techniques speak, I'm rather unique
    Still fly
