Killer Mike lists is Top 5 DOA
AZ
Killer Mike: AZ is the perfect hybrid of Jay-Z and Nas; he has all the swagga, the flavor and a damn good dresser. Nas is one of the sickest dressers in thegame and he has all the slickness and fly s**t of a Jay-Z of a Big Daddy Kane, of a Brookyn fly n***a. He has the mental of the Five Percent(ism) and theEgyptian mysticism of Nas or the Queens movement. I think AZ is on tier with Nas and Jay-Z, it's only because of beat selection and one producer producingthe whole album that he don't get his just due.
I don't think that anybody wants it with him and I don't think anybody wants it with anyone I named on this list. The s**t he says is justphenomenal, he use words like their women, words just bend themselves to dude, it's like they love him. I looked at the line when he said ni**gerycaligraphy. Who the f**k thinks to say that? When you think about gutter and ignorance, you think of the word n****r. When you think of beauty andopulence, you think of calligraphy. Who says I'm gonna put them on a date in the middle of my verse? That's why n****s don't want it with him.
If Jay-Z and Nas are the ying and yang, he is the lining in the circle that connects them. Dude is absolutely amazing!
Killer Mike suggests: Doe or Die or S.O.S.A (Save our Streets AZ)album.
Rest of the list

Its good to see a dude like Az get some love, yeah alot of cats always say he's boring blah blah but you can't front on him lyrically plus duke has asolid catalog. And on the style tip i remember having a Source mag and Az was one of the first cats rocking Lacoste before Jay and others helped to popularizedit, remember him rocking Iceberg velours way before Iceberg was poppin.
Killer Mike is a real scholar of hip-hop seems like the type of dude you could just sit down and discuss hip-hop all day with duke... not too many cats in thegame are actual scholars of hip-hop who can have immense conversations on various artists from various coasts
