You already know, he's going to drop ''The Leaders Of The New School LP'' with Tha Lowlifes on May. He wrote on myspace that it's going to be under EMI Music distribution. Keep your eyes on it, he bounces back. I think he needs some promotion, could you do an interview with him Nima? I think everybody here is very interested in.

CAN SOMEONE LINK UP "G'Z COME OUT AT NIGHT" FOR ME ???!!!???
-
good to hear bad has got a project lined up, already anticipating it.
-
I didn't know they had this lined up...we'll see if it really gets released
-
Always thought Bad Azz had the potential to be a great rapper, too bad his album on doggystyle didn't push numbers, it was actually a pretty good album. Last time I saw Bad Azz ' name pop up was in that Long Beach picnic vid like 2 years ago. Dood was tweaked out than a muthafukka

Yeah definitely, Bad Azz has been ready, I told him we need a new track or something before the interview, it's been way too long since we heard some new Bad Azz shit, we need something to get the people talking again before dropping a full interview, you know?
-
Looks good Nima. Tell him that fans need a hit single real quick. I'm damn looking forward to hear a fresh Bad Azz. C'mon!
This man got his own place in my Top 10 artists all time.

True. I have the album reviews of "Word On Tha Streetz" and "Money Run" both from The Source. I'll drop them here later today.

Bad Azz
Money Run
Out Of Bounds/Bayside
Production: Big Hollis
3 Mics
Succes has always been one step ahead of Bad Azz. Expectations were high when Big Snoop introduced him
as a member of his LBC Crew in 1995. But the budget-busting production and high profile cameos of his
previous offerings (1998's "Word On Tha Streetz" and 2001's "Personal Business") left young Bad Azz on the
sidelines. To remedy the problem, Bad Azz made the risky decision to go no-frills on the independently
released "Money Run". The Long Beach native has obviously found some solace in a world without big name
collabos. The sped-up soul samples of "My Street" (which sound eerily like Jay-Z's "This Can't Be Life")
see Bad Azz's humble soliloquy replacing his usual bad boy as he earnestly conveys, "See me, i thank God
that i'm still here chillin with y'all/That i can go up to my grandma's house and chill in the yard.../Look
everybody knows this little mission we on/Is goind to end up one day, but keep it all on the up and up".
However, this is not a kinder, gentler Bad Azz. "N 2gether Now" finds him and 40 Glocc reaching a
comfortable synergy while spitting boastful gangsterisms over a funky streamlined production. At times, a little
more help might've done Bad Azz some good. Although Big Holis, who churns out all of the album's tracks,
is a gifted beatmaker, he fumbles miserably on the B-rate Neptunes jack "Checkin All The Spots". And while
it's good to see Bad Azz venture out, aid from Snoop, Nate or Battlecat migh've injected some needed fire.
That said, Money Run proves that Bad Azz has not wavered too far from the road to succes - Ryan Ford

Bad Azz
Word On Tha Streets
Priority
Production: Ant Banks, DJ Pooh, Gangsta, Priest "Soopafly" Brooks, Kenny McCloud, others
3 Mics
With California slowly creepin back up since the decline of Death Row, Dogg Pound Gangsta and LBC affiliate
Bad Azz manages to add more hope and direction for the future of the West Coast. With his debut, "Word
On Tha Streets", Bad Azz shows that his strength lies in his ability to spin thought-provoking, intense
narratives. The burn from Bad Azz's bang-bang-gangsta boogie begins with Snoop Dogg assisting the funk on
"We Be Puttin It Down". And just when you thought the West Coast couldn't give a fuck less about a free-
style--plaadoow"--he hits us with "A Hold On Hip-Hop", which features vintage performance from The Lady
Of Rage, while "Continued Dedication", marks the solid debut of his crew, The LowLife Gangstas. However,
the album's best moments occur when Bad Azz speaks the "treal". Songs like "This Life Of Mine", featuring
The Outlawz, the uplifting, country/western guitar-dipped "The Last Time" and "Everythan Happens Fo' A
Reason"--arguably the best track on the LP--provide substance to go with the style. But what gives Bad
Azz and advantage over the average reality rap album are his skits. Check out "School Girl", on which a 14-
year-old remorsefully confesses to Bad Azz that she has commited her first 187. Sadly enough, like all too
many hip-hop albums these days, "Word On Tha Streets" contains its share of ailments. The bite from the
"weak production" and "tired subject matter" bugs infects like "Cookin Cookies", "I Ain't Concerned", "Livin It
Up" and the album's lowest point, "The Shit (Why U Fuck With Me)". Although Bad Azz's debut establishes
him as one of the premier upstarts on the West Coast, a re-evaluation of what does and doesn't work would
lock his name on the all-star list. Unlike a myriad of other gangsta rappers, Bad Azz does have something to
say. Let's just hope the world wants to listen - Miguel Burke

Bad Ass
"Puttin It Down"
Priority: DJ Pooh
Those damn Dogg Pound Gangstas are on the loose again and the dog catcher can't do shit about it!
But this time it's not the usual suspects who are casuin' havoc, it's an equally vicious canine upstart named
Bad Ass. This Long Beach-based dues-payer made a little noise a while back as a member of Snoop's LBC
Crew. Now he's joined by the Doggfather on his first solo single, "Puttin It Down". Now if you're wondering
about young Bad Ass holding his own against the Doggfather, don't even trip, homie. Bad Ass has no such
problems: "We keep a money move/Hate while we regulate/And get real papes rich like Bill Gates"While you
make it to the haters hall of fam/We'll be whuppin' Navigators/Winnin' this baller's game". Blessed by the
trunk-in-the-funk sounds of veteran producer DJ Pooh, "Puttin It Down" doest just that. It's the perfect jam
to bump on those lazy off days that you spend dippin' in the streets with your lo-lo, Jeep or Lex.
Once again it's been proven: Dogg Pound Gangstas make the world go' round. - Miguel Burke
