In 1995, AZ released his solo debut, Doe or Die, which reached top position on various hip hop charts and solidified his spot in hip hop history. The album’s lead single, Sugar Hill, became a major commercial success reaching the top 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and achieving Gold status. The album also included hip hop gems such as: Gimme Yours, Rather Unique, Doe or Die, and Your World Don’t Stop. Many critics and fans considered it to be one of the best albums in a year that classics were being released from artist such as: 2Pac, Mobb Deep, Big L, Raekwon, and ODB.
AZ recently released Doe or Die 15th Anniversary Edition and is touring throughout the country to celebrate the landmark of his debut album. He officially added Indianapolis to the tour and will be performing on March 9th, 2011 at Locals Only.
