Young Black And Gifted (Azariah + Kidd Called Quest) Share “Day Ones”

Rochester hip-hop duo Young Black And Gifted return!  New single “Day Ones” is that soulful boom-bap that producer Kidd Called Quest excels at.  Emcee Azariah delivers deep bars about his nearly two-decade-long relationship with Kidd. 

This stand-alone single is the first new work from Young Black And Gifted since 2021’s “The Oath.”  However, both members have been very active on their own projects in-between including Azariah’s recent release Phase III Blessed And Highly Favored (Produced by Laddie).  Kidd Called Quest has been releasing a string of singles for artists including Pretty Bulli, Curtis Coke, Jae Hussle and a recent EP with St. Paul MN emcee Ken-C entitled The Kendrick Cole EP.
