[throwback] AZ — The Come Up


Decided I’m going to start throwing up some throwback songs every now and then, just because. Here goes the first one; Brooklyn’s AZ with The Come Up. This song has the classic NYC hip hop sound courtesy of DJ Premier on the production & AZ’s penetrating lyricism. He’s one of those artists where you can instantly feel his emotions (even though you may not be able to personally relate) through his delivery.

Often deemed as one of the most under-appreciated hip hop artists, AZ embodies honest lyrics amongst storytelling rhyme schemes making him nothing but authentic. AZ is still in the game working on his 9th studio album entitled, Doe or Die II, due out later this year.
