Hey AZ was dope as fukk, that being on the album could have been huge for him. Radio or not, he bodied that track.
AZ's Pieces of a Man should have crossed him into the Mainstream

Nothing about AZ's music is commercial...
All his shyt is still too Hip Hop & even his "light" tracks have no commercial appeal...
EDIT: Oops... thought this was about AZ-IZ...
Yes... Virgin fukked AZ's career up... he could've had a very successful career like a Fabolous type rapper as far as being able to make more edgy commercial tracks & still be able to have your street appeal...

My teacher had this album on his computer and burned me a copy...
He told me the story of AZ and his career.
Dude should have signed to Def Jam, Rap-A-Lot, or Loud.
A label that could give him a push.
I'm thinking that AZ didn't want the fame and was comfortable where he was at. Coincidentally, he named his label Quiet Money.

Had "Pieces of a Black Man" on repeat a few days ago. Unchain the brain in exchange to take away the painbreh was going off. Dare I say this album goes harder than Doe or Die.
A great album to listen to while this eclipse happens.
