AZ the most UNDERRATED artist of all time, maybe in 500 years when a young hip-hop history student is studying the history of hip-hop they will put him in his rightful place.
Yes! AZ ... for sure!!! - would be on a list of under-rated or not recognized enough ( just made that up i think🤪) MC's ..add dj premier ..fugdheadaboutit!!
This beat is just unreal. It stands above not only in hip-hop but general in music. In '06 when this joint dropped I was a second grade high school student and I was constantly listening to it even in class when I had computer science lesson and we had speakers. Until now I cannot believe how dope this is in my 26 years of life. I really can't describe the feelings that gives me everytime I hear it. Thanks a lot to AZ and Dj Premier of course!
I know this came out in 06 but I get such 90s reminiscent vibes when I hear this track. Guess cause AZ and primo defined 90s hip hop so much for me that whenever I hear them I'm just reminded of that period of hip hop. Love this track
Young and gifted, my tongues prolific. In the beach bungalow is how I brung in Christmas. For the streets I'ma flow from the hungriest districts. Swiss kicks crisp when I come to them picnics...
I can't even express in words how perfect this track is in all regards... Two masters, Premier on production and AZ on the mic. This is one of those duos that make pure magic for your listening pleasure... It blows my mind that this track isn't an anthem around world...
Song will always be dope. AZ is one of the illest. ✊ I agree with the comments about him being underrated. Its crazy how underrated he actually is. But alot of the best artists, never get the shine they deserve.
We just have to be happy that we even had the golden era of hip hop, let alone having grown up in it. I feel you man, I'm just glad I know real hip hop.
I don't listen to this bullshit, no way! You can't go from studying God to listening to fucking chumps yapping about God knows what! Our Hip-Hop was real!
they have no freedom no more they sit in a room with numbers and say, we have to talk about this to appeal to this crowed forced by the record label on what they can rap about and say
whats mainstream for you and did you ever give a thought about why mainstream got mainstream??? if you want to say new school rap sucks well go ahead i dont give a fuck but if you call out all mainstream rappers from the 90s better shut your stupid mouth as this is just blatant and stupid way of copying the opinions of otheres. i call them wannabe rap experts who sit there sayin hmm thinking of it evrything that is mainstream is bullshit and since im obviously a expert talking of rap i have to say only underground has really got what it takes.
Holy shit does this song bring back memories. The first time I ever heard it was on my 3DS, I literally just clicked A and then Z and found this amazing song over 8 years ago 😂
Not only is AZ extremely underrated. This track is also so underrated, I rarely see people mention this one their AZ-song lists. This is probably his top 3 track imo!

Mad combo, DJ Premier really illustrated AZ style in this beat which showcased his amazing lyrical abilities. Bringing in pure hip hop. This is a work of art and poetry 🖼️ it’s rather unique
AZ was the optional hidden boss of 90s MCs

Perfect way to describe him. 😂

What Premo did with this beat is insane.
+B-Mint1994 He does that with every beat cuz!
nah but this beat is different
not from this world
top 5 Preem beats, in my opinion... AZ ripped it though... i wonder if it was made from scratch during a studio session...
Born in The Trap is another one from premo by the game sick beat too
+Phrench Vanilla listen to preems beat on verbal threat reality check
Shame AZ never blew up. IMO he's one of the best ever.
2pac has been flow master and still is
He gave Pac respect in this video

He blewed up enough for him , I mean he live out of his music , he went independant...And his first album Doe or die , is hell of a classik.

AZ was so underrated
www.celebritiesmoney.com/az-net-worth-rapper/
tell me that this is underrated?
Who cares about rating ?? I'm high as shit ... guess what this shit makes me higher !
middle finger for haters !
De Zoe That number is off dude; unless maybe that's how much he's made in his whole life. Forbes says he's worth about 9.3-10 million.
Still is.
***** True, AZ is so underrated, but Nas deserves everything and more.
AZ the most UNDERRATED artist of all time, maybe in 500 years when a young hip-hop history student is studying the history of hip-hop they will put him in his rightful place.
Great comment
Cool thought bro I hope theres some mad Hip Hip History classes 500 years from now
👌
One of the greatest songs of all time right here 🎧
It’s songs like this that make rap so awesome
AZ is one of those artists who has a naturally high skill to recognition ratio. Cant believe he is NOT more spoken about.
Yes! AZ ... for sure!!! - would be on a list of under-rated or not recognized enough ( just made that up i think🤪) MC's ..add dj premier ..fugdheadaboutit!!
You are the man. This comment is exactly what i was thinking
Idk how he’s forgotten. He’s unbelievable
This beat is masterful. Such a slept on song from a slept on dude. Classic.
This beat is just unreal. It stands above not only in hip-hop but general in music. In '06 when this joint dropped I was a second grade high school student and I was constantly listening to it even in class when I had computer science lesson and we had speakers.

Thanks a lot to AZ and Dj Premier of course!
+Winter Hill 043 The underrated are usually the best.
Daaaaamn you were in school in '06? Shiiiiiiiit im old as fuck. Big ups on your musical taste tho AZ tha truth 90s for life.
First time I heard was 08, back when I was 16. Felt like a king back then, still am. AZ reminds me of young nas
Premier at his best
Yessir I was in 11th grade when this came out. Man those were the days
Im still in disbelief I saw AZ, Nas, and Lauryn Hill live in Toronto...you have to be from a certain era to understand. Love from Toronto to New York!
Who’s on this in summer 2020 ????

turned a new leaf from my life I crime concerned with no beef who's as nice as I'm , it's confirmed from few feet I'm still a sniper
That was hard!!
One of the best Rap/HipHop song ive ever heard. Top 5 for sure. imo
I can't even express in words how perfect this track is in all regards...
Two masters, Premier on production and AZ on the mic. This is one of those duos that make pure magic for your listening pleasure...
It blows my mind that this track isn't an anthem around world...
He needs a Preemo album. I'd buy it in 2022... Who else would
One of the most underrated rappers ever. AZ is so dope man.
That first verse of his is arguably one of my favorite rap verses of all time. This man is a legend, what lyrical talent.
AZ is one of my all time favorite MC'S, living legend, the game owes him far more than what he's received thus far.
This is what Preem should have played last night against RZA! Who agrees?
Literally one of the greatest beats ever, cant believe he didn't play this or the come up!... but his catalogue is nuts, too many to choose from lol
@@Ryan-or2pn No doubt! At the end of the day it didn't matter...Hip Hop won that night!
100%

Coming back to this song and is still one of my top 3 favorites ❤
He and DJ Premier are easily best hip-hop duo. Just effortlessly.
Song will always be dope. AZ is one of the illest. ✊ I agree with the comments about him being underrated. Its crazy how underrated he actually is. But alot of the best artists, never get the shine they deserve.

This is one of the best songs ever, AZ is hella underrated🤔💪💯
Growing in this era its hard to listen to hip-hop these days.
We just have to be happy that we even had the golden era of hip hop, let alone having grown up in it. I feel you man, I'm just glad I know real hip hop.

The hardest beat in the rap industry

AZ & CL Smooth World Class lyricist
New York hip hop will always reign supreme...
Premier should've produced the whole album for AZ during that time, it would be an instant classic like in mid 90s
This is one of those perfect tracks.
That beat is just incredible. Takes me to another place. Much like Big Shugs "Play It" and Afu Ra's "Monontony". Preemo is the illest
right on...
The sample is crazy.
I always thought the beat was ass but. Lyricism and flow makes up for it.
AccessDenied55 really, huh...
tear from the clouds oh yes.
Az has one of the most deepest majestic voice ever. Secret King of hip hop. AZ better be in nas's new album.
I grew up in the south and at respects to AZ sheesh that comment about AZ being an optional hidden boss was accurate. Different era of Hip Hop
Grew up listening to hip hop in England 🇬🇧 back in the 90s. Az was always one step ahead
Probably my favorite hip-hop song of all time and one of the most underrated MC's period. AZ my man!
with classics like this you cant complain about new music , just enjoy the classics !!! exclellent lyrics and beats
One of the best songs of all time for sure
Easily one of the top verse of ALL TIME. EXTREMELY underrated Mc
A.Z. Is the most underrated MC of all time
I can't stop listening to AZ's verses
Why fuckin AZ so underrated ? Fuck mainstream.
What about real `Babylonians`...it`s worldwide Slate G!
they have no freedom no more they sit in a room with numbers and say, we have to talk about this to appeal to this crowed forced by the record label on what they can rap about and say
Is he, though? All I hear is that he's underrated. If that's all I hear, doesn't that mean he's rated highly?
whats mainstream for you and did you ever give a thought about why mainstream got mainstream??? if you want to say new school rap sucks well go ahead i dont give a fuck but if you call out all mainstream rappers from the 90s better shut your stupid mouth as this is just blatant and stupid way of copying the opinions of otheres. i call them wannabe rap experts who sit there sayin hmm thinking of it evrything that is mainstream is bullshit and since im obviously a expert talking of rap i have to say only underground has really got what it takes.
by the way i dont say az is bad hes actually one of my favourites
AZ is a true Hip Hop legend my friend.

[Intro]
I'm ready...
[Verse 1]
You know the chronicles, the shit that if mama knew
The stress the drama do, the TEC's phemonenal
Rapid fire, it pecks through the abdominal
You bastard liars, it's me who's the honorable
Bathed and clothed up, shaved and close-cut
Restraint from temptation was drained from both nuts
Heh, now in the physical form
Verbalize through the scriptures, I was Biblically born
It's I'ah, Jeremiah, conceived through the blunt fire
On Kawasaki's, can wheelie up on one tire
Well respected, jail connected
Got the method for them pretty females perfected
For sure, very few flaws, heavy Chevy two-doors
Candy paint, it'll give a nigga the blue balls
Pause, this the life I chose
Done did the 360, the cypher's closed
C'mon!
[Chorus: scratching by DJ Premier]
The format is real sickening, contagious
Here I come, AZ, there you go
Still I don't have to run no game, I done those things
[Verse 2]
Young and gifted, my tongue's prolific
In the beach bungalow is how I brung in Christmas
For the streets I'ma flow from the hungriest districts
Swiss kicks, crisp when I come to them picnics
Play slow, paper chase, stack and lay low
Range Rove tinted, all black, the same old
Psychic mind, righteous rhymes
Done turned a new leaf from my life of crime
No concerns with new beef, who's as nice as I'm?
It's confirmed, from few feet I'm still a sniper blind
Built my fame, spilt my pain
Politicking daily, still trying to milk the game
It's obvious that I'm real, rap skills remain
I took some change and I'm still the same
[Chorus: scratching by DJ Premier]
The format is real sickening, contagious
Here I come, AZ, there you go
Still I don't have to run no game, I done those things
[Verse 3]
Learnt the system, burned some izm
Jotted my jewels down like journalism
How I maneuve now, it'll merge the wisdom
A pilgrim, prophesize, putting words to rhythm
Relating, I Adam Clayton it, manifestation, patient
Meditatin' with them animals waitin', pacin'
Like an inmate that sealed his fate
Let some years escape, but I'm still in shape
I'm chilling, deeply rooted, a beast with music
From Bed-Stuy to the East, I'm too at peace to lose it
But love it, I still does it, breathing off a Trump budget
