Still one of my favorite of the rappers

you know the happenings, homies just yappin and
hand shaking, laughing and
exchanging all they math again
you usually lose touch when you traveling
a few dudes bruise up in the battling
parked on madison across from the radisson
we talked about the tattlin some niggas did in maryland
plus discussed old homicides unraveling
i asked was he dabbling
he laughed and said he managing
his carti frames was as clear as a camera lens
he hardly changed, i was near in comparison
we joked about how police choked him out
and he claimed as far as fame i had enough to bust in oprah's mouth
in other words i was up in clout
and from the curb i need to pull a larry bird before i'm up and out
without a sound, snatched my guinness off the ground
rose up, gave him a pound and told him, homie, hold it down

i know i've written about this song before but i like it a lot and i think it might be approaching my idea of perfection, when it comes to this sort of writing. i've said this before, too: i think az writes better than anyone else. and as much as i don't give a fuck at all about this, if you give a fuck about reading rap lyrics, his come off the best because they preserve so much of his appeal. what do i mean here? i guess i mean that passively reading them in your head, they still have great little details and rhythmic things going on. beyond the rhythmic shit, there's the storytelling, the arc. nobody else has that (other people have it too but this is about az and he's almost the best).

i've been listening to supreme clientele recently and the same longform storytelling shit is in there but it's so cartoonish visual to me PULL OUT BLACK BURNERS LIKE TONSILS but when i listen to az, i think i just picture the words in my head. even when he's trying to go for detailed visual scenes, like in 'never change,' in my head, i just see it as text. i think part of it is the dull, clear voice. droning.

"Never Change" is really one of the best songs ever. (It's on A.W.O.L. tho, not "the Format")
