While discreet with details, AZ hinted at an upcoming rap game takeover.

“Friends become strangers just to destroy an rebuild… Nas u think they ready? D*mn the rap game is about to get a face lift!!! I’m reloaded,” he tweeted August 4th. (AZ’s Twitter)

A few days ago, Nas said he has linked back up with AZ.

“Just got off the phone with AZ. RT @Hassansins: @nas still tight with az? #asknas,” he tweeted in response to a Twitter follower August 3rd. (Nas’ Twitter)

Last fall, AZ revealed plans to hang up the microphone for good.

“I think after [my next album] Doe or Die 2, I’ma wrap it up,” AZ revealed in an interview. “It’s been fun, it’s been fun, I did good. You gotta go out like [undefeated boxer Floyd] Mayweather. Mayweather go out, he’ll jump back in but he’s gonna go out without scars. So I’m cool, I did a good job.” (Mikey T The Movie Star)

In December, the rapper reflected on Nas’ relevance in hip-hop.

“He’s legendary in the game, that’s my man,” AZ said in an interview with Mikey T The Movie Star. “Everything is a blessing. Like I said, just being here and doing what I’m doing is a blessing. And you know with the work that Nas put in, it’s self-explanatory, it’s my boy. I mean that’s him, you always seen he was going that route. He’s for the peoples, man. We all go through our lives and journeys and people pick different paths and I think that’s a good path. We need it out here.” (Movie Star Status DVD)
