Zion-I

[str8sidin1]

why dont anyone mention them when they talk about bay area rappers? i think these cats are on some lyrical shit. and they complement each other. what yall think about them?

 

[POLTERGEIST]

its cuz they arent hyphy!!! but they are dope imo

 

[WUT IS IT]

their more of the hip-hop side of the bay, i first heard of them a couple years back when my cousin did a few songs with them, they do have some catchy songs

 

[BASEDVATO]

they're to smart of music for most the rap fans in the bay

 

[sfgiants2001]

zion i are among the best in the bay. great beats/production, and dope lyrics.

 

[Ca$hFl0w]

Break a Dawn was a huge disappointmet... Deep water slang is one of my top 20 albums though

 

[Kon Capola]

zion is an ill lyricist, i think erryone knows that

and when he's wit that producer (i think his names amp) they just too sick

 

[deejonaze]

yeah, people don't really talk about "backpack" rap on here. they are hella dope though. one of my favorite groups.

 

[v-feezy]

the producer is amp-live. even though people consider them "backpack" group, they are starting to span out a lil. take a look at that "The Bay" remix.

 

[RealRich]

they're to smart of music for most the rap fans in the bay

sad, but not ALL THE WAY true. They are to smart of a music for most of the Bay cats on the siccness. Or they arn't trendy enough or Hyphy enough to be mentioned. Most of the truly dope artist from the bay don't get mentioned on here.

 

[BayNative]

zion I is real hard to classify--thats what makes the music so dope. deep water slang and true & livin are both must haves for any fan of hip hop.

 

[Nelly415]

there not into that hyphy music thats why not alot of people be talkin about them...other then that there dope

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

TRUE n LIVIN is one of their best albums.

 

[realm510]

Zion I is my fuckin fav rap group...They probably dont get no props cus they dont got that club type of vibe..but fasho ZION I got lyrics spittin real shit ..its that shit u wannna hear when u jus goin through some bull shit in life...Mind over matter ....cop dat old school shit

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

dont forget them legends and hieroglyphics

 

[macdrebaby]

Mind Over matter is dope shit

 

[realm510]

yeah zion i is hard to classify...you can classify them as "backpacker" although they probably dont want to be boxed in at all..they can be considered socially concious/revolutionary like "the coup" they can be considered "new bay" even theough they been out for a minute...since they rep the bay hella hard...even b4 da hyphy movement...

 

[hipxhopxjedi]

yeah zion-i is one of my favorite groups. i think they should get alot more credit but i'm happy they were at least featured on My Block for a quick second

 

[dR3 VaN HaL3n]

deep water slang wasn't as good as mind over matter. it had a few good songs but it was pretty much a dissapointment IMO. haven't copped their latest shit tho, still gotta pic dat up.
