Artist Of The Week – Azeem

Posted: 06 Apr 2009 06:23 AM PDT

I've been a fan of Azeem since I first heard Craft Classic in 2001. Each one of his albums since then has either met or exceeded my expectations. Lyrically gifted, Azeem's music is both politically poignant and fantastically funky and over the years I've had the pleasure of interviewing him for a number of publications and websites. Just last month, in a huge accomplishment for a socially conscious artist, his video for "Open Em Up" was voted a favorite by BET.com users. This week I caught up with Azeem to talk about his life and his work and he opened up about dropping out of school at a very young age, the creativity behind another one of his videos, "Latin Revenge," and what he sees in America's immediate future. Azeem is known as a bit of a Nostradamus as many of his predictions from his previous albums have come true, so don't take his words lightly, we might very well end up living them! Click Here...
