Produced by MoSS. Statik Selektah on the cuts.

Off of Doe Or Die 2

:killacam:

Fags will probably hate on the Wayne sample, but AZ delivers in a big way.

The speed at which you compensate is admirable. Thanks for the song.

Best (solo) song he's done in a couple of years.

It really sucked that on his last proper album (not the even bigger dud he put out right after it) the only really ill beat on it was the intro and outro and all he did on both was fucking yap some adlibbed bullshit.

Actually, i think he's just looked at what a lot of regional rappers are doing putting out multiple albums a year with little quality control for quick checks, and decided to go that route putting out any old shit as cheaply as possible himself since the bottom fell out of the industry and he's never gonna sell more than 20 k a time in this day and age.

It was quite cool that Final Call finally got an official release, though. Omega, Livewire, Seems That Way, The Truth and a couple of others are great.

A step in the right direction. I'd like to forget everything he has done these past couple of years.

One thing about Doe Or Die 2 (LOLz), is that it least it isn't gonna get one if its best tracks nixed by sample clearance like the first one did now he's on an indie.

"get money" is sick

im really pissed that i cant listen to this new song at work
if he's calling it doe or die 2 then my hope is that he'll put some serious effort into it
what's the track that got cut from the orig doe or die btw?
1. Nas
2. Drake

that's pretty much it fam.

The o.g version of The World Don't Stop, obviously.

I don't remember Get Money. The only one track i sorta liked was the one which had the same Mayfield sample as the intro to Cormega's Legal Hustle compilation.

Will check this when I get home, thanks.

I don't remember no "Get Money" song, but I'm not really an AZ expert, so...
EDIT: Thought you were referring to his 1st album.

new album needs a Primo track as the last two were definitely lacking anything that could stand up to 'The Come Up' and 'The Format'.

Dope joint. But I can't lie and say it doesn't annoy me when I already know
the sample from another rap jawn. Not saying anyone else would or should notice that, though.
