I believe it was the most anticipated cause you can find clips of a very young NORE when he dissed Nas and vice versa Nas dissed NORE…… so when Drinks Champs had Nas on but never had AZ ……. So the culture felt AZ still wasn’t feeling NORE (pause)…..
AZ is a thinker and is very much intentional with his words and actions. He doesn't respond for the sake of responding and is thoughtful in his responses. He's not gossipy so he's not going to share any salicious stories just because. He's a respectable man.
AZ is such an introspective, classy and calculated dude. He controlled the flow and direction of the interview and was very methodical with his answers and responses. NORE did everything possible to get him to gossip, tattle-tell or throw people under the bus and AZ deflected each time. I absolutely loved this interview and love that AZ got the recognition and praise that he rightly deserves.
Little kids take note..this is how men back in the day USED TO BE. You can hear it in his voice, pure integrity. They don't make them like this no more. He is a blueprint human being.
AZ is a smart smart calculated man. He didn't drink or smoke and they tried throughout the whole interview. AZ knows Nore and he ain't falling for it. Salute
@WolfSnot Nore is grimmy and they all know from queens and Brooklyn and now we all know if u read Prodigy's book. He maybe different now but those dudes don't forget and AZ made that clear in the interview towards the end.
*Shit got me teary eyed no lie man been a fan of AZ for years and always tried to get people to hear this Legend even when people who don’t have clue of Hip Hop would be like “Who?”*
EXACTLY!!! I LOVE MY BROOKLYN DUDES. I LOVE NY DUDES , THAT GREW UP WHEN I DID. I AM A FEW YEARS OLDER THAN AZ, BUT I HAD A CRUSH ON HIM. HE'S THE PERFECT PROTOTYPE OF WHAT A REAL BROOKLYN STAND UP GUY IS SUPPOSED TO BE!!!!
Met AZ in the late 90’s at HU homecoming. He was with Nas who just dropped illmatic. A lady asked me to take a photo with AZ, suddenly, I was taking photos of AZ and Nas then the phone rang and he was tellin people that Foxy Brown just landed in DC - shit was crazy back then. AZ still is 🔥
AZ/NAS the core of Hip Hop, they'll mentally take you to a time and place and have you experience that life in the most poetic way ever. The story telling is next level philosophy.

AZ is one of the most … if not THE…humblest rappers alive! Cool as a cucumber man! This was great that he finally get his due diligence 🙏🏿 AZ is in my Top 10 fav lyricists!
So happy for my brother. Known him since before we was teenagers. We used to be on the 4th floor in my grandmothers building in cyphers and blowing something. Keep doing your thing my brother 😊
AZ is one of the 🐐and one of the best lyrists of all time. Brooklyn created a beast 😤. Classic albums under his belt and bars for decades. One of my favorite songs from him is The Come Up 🎶 which is absolutely 🔥🔥🔥. I'm glad that he's finally getting his well deserved flowers. Drink Champs you guys have another classic interview. Much love and respect to y'all 😎.
@@robbiebridges6021Early days he was Business an Lyrical in his early times not so political now like 2Pac.. Hopefully he's giving money to the poor like 2Pac with he's richeous speeches..
this comment section alone displays how AZ’s personhood and artform impacts others. He is so dope, definitely getting tickets to see him and Cormega at SOBs 💌💌💌
AZ wasn't getting caught up in the drunk and tree smoke shenanigans... He done seen how these Drink Champ interviews get sloppy and messy.... Salute and Respect
AZ The God! Favorite emcee since 95! One of the greatest in hip-hop. The best lyricist in the world. Untouchable. Undeniable. Legendary. Noble. Elite. Impeccable flow. Great to see him.
Big shot out to A.Z. I feel the vibe. His people he grew up with is my people. From N.Y. to N.C. Back and forth. East N.Y. has always been a family for us coming out of E.C. We jumped off the porch straight into the streets from N.C. to East N.Y.
The last part of the interview had me dying 😂😂😂 ,.. you can tell AZ was done with the questions ,..hungry Asf ,.. a lil tipsy and Nore keep asking him questions. The annoyance on his face was priceless. AZ was ready to get tf up out!
I was looking for this comment. 😂 I was starting to think I was the only one picking up on that…. Like, “if this mf ask me to drink one more mf time!” 🤣🤣 repetitive questions started feeling a little invasive too, you could tell.
“Pieces of a Man” is an album that needs more credit. There’s not much separating it from “It Was Written.” There’s a few albums I go to when I’m sick and need musical medicine. “Aquemeni” is one of them, and “Pieces of a Man” is the other. I learned more about life from that album than I did from my actual father.
Brownsville East New York Stand Up. AZ thank you for your inspiration thru your music. I grow up listening to Rakim and you faithfully. I still listen to your music and look for your music. Brother your albums got me thru n still getting me thru. I humbly thank you as a kid from Brooklyn Salute God
Finally got him on Drink Champs!!! "Sugar Hill" was the most played song in my car, CD player, now on my playlist!! I even bump the sample "Sugar Free" by Juicy just to go back to AZ's version!! I gotta say this man hasn't aged a bit!! ❤❤❤
same here... but I do listen to juicy's album version and to the "deo super dance mix" from which the beat was sampled... brazilian eumir deodato is a genius. plus I have like 8 to 10 different trys on that specific beat... e.g. brian mcknight's "hold me trackmaster's remix" cmw's "it's a compton thing" grand daddy i.u.'s "sugar free" erykah badu's "back in the day" love sugar hill since summer '95 though... that'll be my joint forever.
AZ is so humble. Ive been waiting for someone to say Foxy Browns verse on Affirmative Action was written by her since the day the record dropped. AZ is a G.O.A.T. in hip hop no question.
I will forever be sick to my stomach that Nas and AZ never made an album together. It just seemed so natural to make it happen. Still… one of THEE illest most charismatic pens to ever lay down rhymes. 💯💯💯
@johndavis9321 As great as Nas is.. he can’t take failure well. When Dre said for them people who said that I turned pop after the Firm flop… Once it’s viewed in a negative light.. Nas walks away!
You could tell he doesn't like doing interviews. I understand him a lil better. He's just about music and his money as he should. Great interview. Hopefully going to the show on the 30th
This was a special for me... Thank you "Drink Champs." I've always felt like AZ was one of the most slept on MC's from that era, or at least lacked the exposure that other rappers of that time got. So seeing this was great. I didn't even know he was still making music after the 90's so this was a phenomenal, thank you.
One of the most anticipated Drink Champs interviews in history and it lived up to the hype. It's very great to see the legend AZ get his well deserved flowers while he is still alive. He was one of the most standout rappers of the impactful 90s era with his unique flow and smooth lyricism. AZ is without a doubt one of the greatest rappers off all time. Salute to AZ 🫡🫡
AZ is my favourite rapper, not only because of his music, but because he is very observant and calculated. You always think clearer and act efficient when at a distance. Difference in mindset watching the storm, rather than being inside it
I grew up in ATL, you know nobody was bumping NY artist down here. I was the oddball growing up bumping Jay Z, Nas, AZ, Cormega, Big L, 50 Cent the list goes on. I say all that to say AZ is my goat! As a kid I loved his stories more than I loved Nas stories! Glad to see AZ getting his flowers! Much love from ATL!
I can honestly say Nore did not mess this interview up, it was certainly a nice piece, I give Nore credit this time! Much Love to AZ hip hop icon/giant
I like the way Az never shows conflict or bias to anyone straight up stand up on how you respect the people you work with their problems not your problems 🫡 Az top 5 DOA let’s argue
AZ's persona comes across the same way, whether it's on records or interviews. Humble guy, who stays out the way. He gets his on the low, moves quietly and rips mics.

If NAS and AZ could just do one collaboration album with preemo on the beats I'll die a happy man.

Super duper 💯
No we need another firm album and let dj premier produce it
@@quanmuhammad1146 Time has not passed. Real Hip-Hop heads would cop that joint.

Smart man. Az said before that he doesnt trust podcasts
