AZ returns with some new heat produced by Cookin Soul. “Doe or Die II” is coming later this year, and “Last Of A Dying Breed 2” drops in September.

As soon as I saw the title I knew it was going to sample ‘It Aint Hard To Tell’. It has a nice little vibe to it, but it’s very forgettable. AZ is dope and easily better then every rapper out right now, but the song is mediocre. Ever since he went indie, his albums have sounded very bland. I don’t expect much from Doe or Die 2. I’m not impressed
I can’t agree with you man. AZ’s shit ain’t as digestible as most niggas’ shit. Cookin Soul gave him a smooth as fuck track to rock over…and AZ’s spitting some real bars and his flow is as slick as it was in 98. Don’t know how anyone could dislike this!
Sosa’s ill, but his last few albums pretty much sound the same though. No direction, no concept. Not impressed is right. Since he went indie his projects have become a bit redundant. He’s still one of the top spitters in the game for sure.
Yeah the 1st comment is a hater..you’re right i guess about it being forgettable but the thing is AZ has a lisp its hard af to understand everything he’s sayin but I know the lyricism is there and this beat is very hip-hop and dope. CANT WAIT FOR DOE OR DIE 2!!!
Really? Az has a lisp? Never heard that, probably the second best lyricist ever behind kool g rap. If hes too complicated to understand you probably have a 85%ers mentality sheep
Yeah AZ has a lisp you idiot. He says so himself and this is said on various AZ interviews by various people. Being able to HEAR someone CLEARLY and UNDERSTANDING what they say are 2 different things. You wanna preach your 85er bs as if you’re a 5%er and you’re super smart and gifted with knowledge of self and bla bla bla but you have the reading comprehension skills of a 10 year old and didn’t know your favorite rapper had a lisp. you’re a joke lol
Not my favorite rapper, but ive been listening to all of his material since his guest verse on illmatic, and ive never had a problem understanding a single lyric, he speaks clearly in interviews, movies, skits, his flow is so serious bar for bar every lyric counts. What interviews or songs does he admit having a lisp? Do you even know what a lisp is? Mike tyson has a lisp Az says s words normal he doesnt pronouce s as th.

live niggas respect it,,,,,,if you have catalog of hiphop az should be in it,,,,,,if you talkin that he spittin the same or sounding the same,shit,,,,,thats son,, thats how he sound ,,,he aint out here on some popularity shit,,,,like all these new rapppers,,,son got his spot,,,he bubble when he want,,
I feel that for AZ. Other rappers, IDK. I understand the idea of being consistent, but also having some difference within your music, but AZ.. im Cool with his consistency. When you listen to AZ you want some live shit, not something else. You expect a certain aspect when you listen to AZ
Put it like this… Styles P gets old for me listening to the same topics and such, but AZ, I can listen to it all day. I guess it’s different with each rapper, each listener.
nothin less than a 5. I get why hes so underrated now. He rhymes TOO much for people. Everything rhymes so dumb fucks supporting trinidad and 2 chainz get lost in that shit and cant appreciate the dopeness of it.
You can always tell the beats AZ likes to write rhymes to, but you got to love him when he gets busy with the delivery. I would like to hear him rhyme on some more cooking soul, DJ Premier tracks, buckwild and Pete Rock joints.
Without question one of the nicest niggas ever. He’s never made a fool of himself or stooped to the idiocy of his counterparts. He’s had a classy career.

You Crazy. This track is dope. AZ the Visualizer!!
I own every AZ album and am a huge fan. I’ve listened to every album from cover to cover and I hate to say it, but I agree with you.

Joint nice, AZ use to be my favorite rapper back in the day. Checkout thegrandreport, they got some good hip hop videos on there too
Nobody in the game like AZ. This is what hip hop is about, blaze it, listen, imagine.
AZ sounds always the same, same flow, same lyrics. Song isnt bad but get out your comfortzone.
Seen the song title and knew right away Nas’ voice would be sampled on this. This is nice! A sharp as ever.
This is classic material….short and sweet.
CRIMINOLOGY, RAP PORNOGRAPHY, BLACK MAHOGANY
It’s ok.. AZ just raps about the same thing every song and the beat isn’t that good either. Lyrics are there but it’s getting really repetitive..
this shit is crack 5 stars peace
o
More greatness from the BK legend.
the real SOSA
AZ man, I seen this shit on the side of the page… while I was listening to I’M KNOWN off of Pieces of a Man.
AZ that dude Straight up and down square biz.

Live niggas respect it
Word!

AZ is better than this! Beat is wack and he didn’t need that Nas sample in there. Sounds like he recorded in the basement!
Dope track as always by AZ but Doe Or Die II won’t come out this year.
The real sosa is back!
Dis Don always been raw. kinda raised me over the past couple of years
AZ still got it!!
nothin less than a 5. I get why hes so underrated now. He rhymes TOO much for people. Everything rhymes so dumb fucks supporting trinidad and 2 chainz get lost in that shit and cant appreciate the dopeness of it.
CRAZY.
I hope he’s cookin some creative shit… like some fan mail or nas rewind sht..
Dominicans stand !
Word da fuck up!!!
