@ Just C, I just showed you the song
@ Phil Banks, check Eminem's wikipedia page. AZ is an influence
and then listen to Eminem - We're Back
All I Hear Is I'm Best At This And I'm Best At That
But I Don't Hear My Name, No Where Brought Up In Rap
And I Don't Usually Trip Or Dare Get Caught Up In That
But When They Say One Of The Best, I'm Nowhere Thought Up As That
Not Even The Same League As Jay-Z, Nas, Pac, Biggie Or Maybe
They Name Me Somewhere Down At The Bottom, Right After AZ
Basically what Em is saying is that he doesn't think he's looked at as #1...when people think of the best rappers they're quick to name Jay-Z, Pac, Nas first, etc
But he's saying he's overlooked and slept on just like AZ. And AZ might be one of the best rappers ever who never got credit for his skill
He had no mixtape, his first rap verse EVER was on Life's a Bitch and that verse alone is better than verses from heads that have been rapping for years and years and years
About.com lists AZ as the most underrated lyricist of all time.
