ALL music has its place, including AZ and his style.. but just because every rapper doesnt try to make you cry it doesnt mean hes garbage, it means hes making his own type of music. how many people get hype when Soulja Boys song comes on? sure its not lyrical, its not "deep", but the shit goes hard as fuck when its on, people go crazy and have a great time. theres nothin wrong with an artist makin a song that people wanna hear .. thats what music is all about

as far as him never falling off, well shit if the dude is taking 10 years to drop an album then it better as fuck be top notch .. if eminem sat in a room for 10 years and did nothing but make an album perfect then it would be perfect also, same goes for a million other artists

comparing Em, and Jay and whoever in the way that youre doing is a never ending argument. the beauty of music is its subjectivity. I prefer Em to AZ and we'll leave it at that. no one will ever prove who's "better"... comparing the best emcee's of all time is not about whos "better" anyways, its who is more "enjoyable" to the listener. they are all the best to their own crowd. and thank god thats how it is or 1 rapper would have 40 000 000 sold and everyone else would have 0.

personal preference is gold baby

AZ is dope just like Em is dope .. both have contributed volumes in hip hop in their own way .. nothing wrong with how either of them did it

^^ Yeah....

Lol you have to fuck with AZ heavy to pull out most of his gems..Doe or Die is the shit everybody familiar with AZ fucks with...same with The Format

First i'ma start with this joint most of ya'll never heard. and the lyricism is insane B


"One of the few so elite, it's an honor to meet. Obama physique, groomed well - garments is sleek. Have a chick so in check you gotta con her to speak"

"Don of the week, centerfold magazine style. Fuck Kenneth Cole, everything is Japanese now. Love dinner rolls, lemonade with iced tea mixed. Who's on beginner mode? I see through the sheisty shit"

just look at how those lines are structure wise. fuck the complicated punchlines and metaphors. The repitition of certain letters. chick check con....the internals

center fold
kenneth cole
dinner rolls
be-ginner mode

His shits more complicated than most people give him credit for and its probably for that exact reason that he's considered one of the greatest lyricists of all time. If not THE greatest. But definitely most underrated.

then this spanish joint...since I'm a Dominican nigga

[SeNSaTiONaL]

Its not that im the biggest fan I respect opinions to each his own

but I've been listening to rap and involved in Hip-Hop longer than most of you on this site. How many of you niggas have a page dating back to '05?

I've been listening to the shit for like 12 years and after listening to all kinds of rappers..

from the Eminems..to ICP's..from Jeru Da Damajah to the Meek Mills...Kool G Rap's to Rakims my opinion probably means a lot more than most of yours. not even saying you dont have the right to an opinion

but there's not much a brown belt can teach a black belt feel me...

I liked the way AZ rhymed on Life's A Bitch but when I was first put on to him like his solo projects and shit..a good 7-8 years ago, I hated dudes style.

2 yrs ago after listening to hundreds of rappers and tens of thousands of songs...an iPod of 72,000 songs later.. I've come to the conclusion that this dude is one of the best to ever do it and I stand by that opinion

if your parents tell you not to touch the pot cuz its hot, don't do it. moral of the thread. Ya parents look out for your well-being and only want whats good for you. Hip-Hop wise i'm pointing ya'll in the right direction

without niggas like me, I'd take a 1 year hiatus and you niggas would be on here praising Chief Keef or some corny shit

lol smh bro just cause you haven't been on this site since 05 doesn't mean you haven't been listening to hip hop long before you joined the site
