AzChike has been played on NTS in shows including Bodywork w/ Kaili, featured first on 14 October 2018. Songs played include Gang Baby, Big Chop and Strapped Up.

Born and bred in South Central Los Angeles (July 28, 1995), AzChike’s intense raps over trunk-rattling production is the embodiment of the new West Coast sound. In a region lush with vivid storytelling and unique flows, AzChike has made a name for himself with an aggressive voice that occasionally drifts into a bona fide growl, coupled with unapologetic rhymes that manage to completely avoid a cluttered sonic landscape.

As the de facto leader of the AzCult collective out of L.A., AzChike quit his day job in early 2015 after he saved up enough money to pursue his dream of music by purchasing his own production and recording equipment. After a slew of EPs (one of them including his track “Burn Rubber Again”, which has amassed over 17 million streams across all platforms), AzChike dropped his first full-length project, My World, in March 2018.
