Azeem has been a regular on the Bay Area poetry and hip-hop scene for over a decade. In 1994, his first band Telefunken was featured on the compilation Groove Collective on OM Records. Azeem's real break came in 1996 at an open mic reading where he would test his mettle against fifty of the best poets in the country. To his own surprise, he won the contest and was invited to perform on the world famous Lollapalooza Tour, sharing the stage with George Clinton, A Tribe Called Quest, and The Beastie Boys, to name a few.
