S.O.S.A. (Save Our Streets AZ) is a compilation album made to promote AZ's then-upcoming album 9 Lives.[1] It features ten tracks, and has songs that are not found on AZ's other albums along with songs that ended up making it on the 9 Lives album. It was distributed in the streets, as AZ was a free agent at the time and was in the process of finding a new label after Noo Trybe Records let him go.
