The release of Legendary (reviewed here) a few moths back really let me down. I felt like I was alone in this feeling because most fans were praising the album as hip hop gold (five star iTunes rating). They must have just been blinded by the greatness of AZ’s previous releases. However, AZ himself must have agreed with me because he is back with new album. This new release completely blindsided me because of my recently lowered expectations. Only a month after the release of Legendary, AZ has come out with a new and far superior album. I am not too sure about the details of this release, (it may not even be official). This new album was everything that I hoped Legendary would be. The beats (mostly from Batkave) on this coincide perfectly with AZ’s laidback and cool style. His lyrics on this were carefully crafted. His skill as a rap wordsmith showed nicely. The only out of place song was The Reverend. AZ spits great on this, but the song is much more serious and dark than I am used to with him. The exceptional tracks on here are Hustle In My Blood, Run From Me, Get Low,
