Smooth Freshness; Mad Agressive/

About Me

Azariah raps with a passion. His smooth and honest approach to music captivates listeners of all tastes with his unique take on hip hop. Hailing from West Henrietta, Azariah began making noise on the Rochester New York music scene with the release of his debut album “The Chronicle”. The strong freshman LP matched with a stage show that had even the toughest critics hands in the air; produced a strong buzz for Azariah on the underground hip hop circuit.
Continuing to grind Azariah found himself in front of larger audiences sounding like a seasoned veteran. With his “Smooth freshness / mad aggressive” slogan and a hate it or love it attitude; music fans couldn’t help from being pulled in Azariah’s direction. In 2005 Azariah dropped the “What You Flo About” mixtape. Listeners could hear the progression from his debut LP along with the message in his music that was becoming stronger with every song he recorded. Following the CD with a DVD edition Azariah showed he was willing to step into realms untouched by Rochester hip hop artists in order to get his music heard.
In 2006 Azariah hooked up with the producer E. Moore over a common goal to create good music. With fresh new beats to bless Azariah was on the top of his game and sounding hungry as ever. After spending time on the low from the public eye, Azariah is back and Wild Card Music is proud to release his newest project “Keep It Movin”. With his signature smooth and authentic flow the exciting new release showcases Azariah at his finest. Touching a wide variety of topics with his deep insight Azariah gives listeners music they can feel, relate to, and nod their head. Executive Producer: E. Moore as well as standout beatsmiths DJ Ease, Slim Chance and Jay Quest give “Keep It Movin” a strong musical background for Azariah to paint his powerful picture. Don’t sleep, grab a copy of “Azariah: Keep It Movin...” and listen to history in the making.
