Tech N9ne is the best rapper there is out right now, He has proven it for the past 20 years hes been making music. He has the best flow and stage show , AINT NOBODY FUCKING WITH TECCA NINA ! Bitch

[killlilwayne]

[sugreev2001]

RIP Disco D,who produced this track among others.

[gamal01]

NAS and AZ are the yin and yang OF hipHOP the light and the dark one commercial one underground BOTH NECESSARY

[detroitswagga]

One of the most underrated but in no way is AZ better than Nas

[ThisIsKeef]

@detroitswagga Not as a standalone artist, but every collab him and Nas did, AZ had the better verse or verses. And this is coming from a Nas fan, i got all his CDs

[billslover90]

2 dislikes???? wow, thats the lowest number of dislikes i have ever seen for a rap song on youtube. but still, the people who disliked this dont know what hip hop is really about.

[idropbombsnigga]

@billslover90 yae but those dudes musta ment dis-i-like

[billslover90]

@idropbombsnigga XD probably

[DrWillHird]

az is easily the most underrated rapper of all time

[twist2g22]

Memoirs of a Lyricist gives you a history lesson primarily on hip-hop.

Take a chance and open your minds about the creation of something that has gained acceptance across the world. Understand why it is accepted on some levels but not others. This book explains some of the deceptions and greatness of this culture.Release date NOV 2010

[ThaSubzstance]

hes lyrically more consistent then nas so be easy if u knew az u wud know this. This song is dumb tho, this dude is talking bout ut he the city of gods, then speaks some random shit on alll his verses. is there a metaphor im not getting? or are all yal just ridin his dick a bit to hard. he my favorite mc yes, but he floped this track

[HighGravity777]

@ThaSubzstance Hes talkin bout his life and how he evolved from his environment. This track is off in someway but his lyrics are sick. This track has been remixed and some are better than this.

[leonmccollum1994]

@ThaSubzstance you just said this song was bad,how the hell you gonna go and say nas is not lyirically consistent,thats like saying ice cream isnt always cold,just because a neigga doesnt sput metaphors on every song does not mean hes bad,hip hop is about telling storys and giving messages in various perspectives,nigga you dont know hip hop so dont talk about it,"my fav mc" please,dog u dont know shit

[kshintaku13]

He's one of the only MCs to not get totally outdone on tracks with Nas. AZ been slept on his whole career.

[Smo0ochMyGooch]

@kshintaku13

overall Nas is > than AZ but AZ> on Lifes a Bitch

[iDuffdabestweed]

@Smo0ochMyGooch nas is too damn political, noone wants to hear that shit, nigga talks more politics than cnn, AZ is way better than nas, AZ raps about fucking girls, gettin money, and smokin weed

[wizzaar]

@iDuffdabestweed let me school u real quick...nas and az are equal as lyricists. the difference is, nas though u say on some political bs... thats shit u may not know or other people might not know about so he talking real shit. az nice wit the word play, but why thing he where he at now, because he has no content. nas is versatile, az isnt ... basically. but i love both, my top two

[gamal01]

@wizzaar I know for a fact that you really don't know AZ saying he lacks content! the ONLY difference between NAS and AZ is that one is corporate and one isn't and nas as he said became a "Slave" to the industry, AZ didn't that's the only politics that exist!

[iDuffdabestweed]

@kshintaku13 AZ is better than nas

[Soo35cool]

@iDuffdabestweed Az and Nas are both ILL...why do you people always have to compare them shit

[juliustheman]

AZ is a monstar in this RAP GAME!

[TheHeelflipg]

overall i likee this dude but he shouldnt descibe him as the real hiphop hiphop is illuminati it is satanism.. but he still nice

[Mattthestud]

Mad Underated.

[Bigseth757]

Firm Biz= Underated illness in its prime

[mowliid2006]

I gotta give it to you. Az is the sickest Rapper to come out of Brooklyn. Every Song he Does is Nice, no bullshit. If U like this song check into His A.W.O.L , The Format, or Do or Die albums.

[JuggaloAndMick]

R.I.P Disco D

[mufc187]

beat and flow are ridiculous. RIP disco d on the production.

[Yadada2626]

that's the format!

[SASkate]

fuckin steezy

[pc3508]

first of all yall kinda right and wrong az is a 5 percenter so hes good in a sense cuz theyre a gang basically sort of like the masons but theyre not tryna takeover the world theyll jus do anything to protect it and all that freemasonry yeah all that shit is true and some is false we all gon fuckin die one day so theyll be thawed out peace and love

[DaProlifik1reaLyrics]

@pc3508 freemasons ain't all bad either, Illuminati infiltrated them, the organization is way older than the Illuminati, and the knowledge is older than freemasonry. Some of them are actually good people, but there are some that favor the plan you refer to. I've studied alot of what they study, it's not a whole bunch of evil devil worshipping shit from my understanding, although some do practice black magic and worship Molech etc. It's just knowledge.

[Yashiya24]

i love az just as much as all of you. but i hope ya know he talkin about masonry

[MrACS313]

peace you may have seen a vid of about masonry . let break it down for you 85% of world is deaf,dum and blind the (10% the masons) keep the 85% that way so they can keep ruleing the earth. C-A-T-S LIKE AZ= (THE 5%) LIKE MY SELF R poor right-just teachers . in other WORD 5% of us R the true and living GODS of the Earth. peace 2 you and your. AZ IS NOT a mason . he's- just =

[MrACS313]

THE GOD

[kovy274hart]

AZ's better than so many out there.

[VRQwerty]

that's some nice spittin az

[laylowsaysoo]

the only reson u dnt hear az and other sick rappers is coz thay aint wit the illuminati shit like lil wayne nd jayz is thay aint sold there souls

[Bryantsreeves]

@laylowsaysoo true, the artists that gave their souls are now on the radio. it's a fucked up world.

[laylowsaysoo]

yh dude if thay did sell there souls daam you would hear this joint every were. fucked up world

[laylowsaysoo]

0:14 does he say we all evolve from the city of gods stuffin odd just give me the nod or stafurallah just give me the nod

[CamfrogHackers]

[CamfrogHackers]

You know when ever you do a search for Brooklyn rappers Smooth Da Hustler is Top One Coz They Represent Real These Other Rappers Are Coosh

[kevinatorres1]

[mohamed724]

i ve listened to many rappers he is the only one who dont have a bad song and i ve listened to his 12 albums all and all not one bad song, he said the only reason he raps is cz he still care about real hip hop so he is the definition of real hip hop

[BARSHOTZ]

@mohamed724 dude I'm gonna agree that he has no bad songs but I'm gonna dissagree wit the real hip hop statement honestly hip hop hasn't changed since it first came on the scene so fuck outta here wit the real hip hop statement if dudes like soulja boy killed hip hop then in essence it would of been dead way before him sugar hill gang would of been the death of hip hop before it even had life

[killamp2]

@BARSHOTZ dude fuck hip hop rap aint bin da same since jay-z hook up wit juvie. bac then was all about lyrics lok at all the ol scol cats from down south n west coast even up coust it was all about lyrics

[thundergod94]

@mohamed724 ayy u shuld check out my song called Its On me

[Nacirema856]

Disco D beat. RIP

[goodfellamike]

What a legend! Real hip hop right here! None of that 50 cent hate rap! AZ is the definition of hip hop.. Dude gives respect to Rakim, 50 needs to learn from that..

[Chaingeeazi]

@goodfellamike 50 needs a slap. Can't even mention his wackass same sentence as AZ. One sentence from AZ will eat his whole album. And he doesn't respect ANY of the greats. But I know U had to say that for those that don't know. hahahah

[Kuato222]

@Chaingeeazi 50 might be wack now but that Power of the Dollar album is straight fire. He has talent he just chooses not to use it. And ya I agree with you he is pretty disrespectful but that's cause the mainstream fans love beef.

[Chaingeeazi]

@Kuato222 That's exactly my point. That's what makes him even more wack is that he has the talent to make better music! Nothing worse than abusing talent. He's like a Vince Carter. Lazy ass w no heart. lol "Disrespectin' da game, no home trainin' or manners".

[TheRealHookz]

@Chaingeeazi Say what you want the nigga 50 still a livin legend. He wont reach AZ god status but dude is a legend

[Chaingeeazi]

@TheRealHookz Dawg, U gotta be f'n kidding me. Legend how??! How does one good album make U a legend? Especially when U put out whole bunch of b.s. afterwards! Ur standards are too low. Maybe all this watered down hip hop has U not seein' clearly. lol. The only thing he REALLY deserves props for is his business sense. But his music? Hell naw.

[TheRealHookz]

@Chaingeeazi See you dont know shit. before 50 who was making money off of mixtapes, before 50 came into the scene in 03 who was making millions off hardcore rap, and if you subtract the few commercial songs on The Massacre it was way better than GRODT. Watered down my ass my fav. rapper is a tie between AZ and Styles.

[snpdo]

@TheRealHookz hop off 50 dick fam

[BCmountainDriver]

@TheRealHookz

no man.

[BCmountainDriver]

@TheRealHookz

keep talking about 50 cent on a fuckin AZ song man, people really care.

[TheRealHookz]

@goodfellamike Thats not really a 50 thing. My older brother lives in Queens and almost all them niggaz is grimey and disrespectful.

[BCmountainDriver]

@TheRealHookz

damn man, thats a really discriminatory comment.

[BeastlySwagger]

Some of the greatest shit written ever. 1
