The next time Atlanta is mentioned as it relates to the global hip-hop community, crunk and snap music won't be the only highlights the city will have to claim. A Canadian transplant who calls Atlanta's westside his home, emcee Azage, is bringing concise lyricism back to the forefront with his amplified mixtape, A Dollar & A Dream.

Also laced with exclusive originals, Azage is poised to be the next big thing out of Atlanta. -jason thompson
