Question by You Can Hate Me Now: Inspired by Kid999 and XXL Magazine..?
I was recently reading an interview with AZ in XXL magazine. AZ stated that after he appeared in illmatic every label offered him a contract, including Nas’ label, but AZ eventually decided on EMI, a British music company, because he wanted to be the center of attention, and not share the spotlight with anyone else. My question is, if AZ started out with a large/well know label to get a strong fan base, and release his debut, do you think he would have blown up and be in Mainstream right now?

Best answer:

Answer by [D.C.]
No, because he is not a mainstream type of rapper, And that is what labels are looking for, so he would be dumped sooner or later.
