Zion I - Bird's Eye View

[throwindembows]

This is the one song that properly used this break.  I think they could even do a better job using it, but it was tastefully done for a rap song regardless.

[rxcort]

today someone asked me if I had ever been in love...

I said "Yeah... and I still love H.E.R."

[babiislash]

I still love this song. I found this on Myspace years ago when Myspace was in. Also, it was around the time i first discovered Underground Hip Hop as well. Classic song! :)

[poltaotata]

Where can i find an instrumental version ?? Amazing !!!

[jt78291]

It's interesting how Zumbi from Zion I was in that "How to Rap" book saying how he focuses first on the flow of the rap: "I think the flow is what I’m trying to lock in first. The meaning is a close second, but the flow has got to fit first."

There's a lot of the best underground guys in that book getting the respect they deserve, they got hold of Aesop Rock, Blackalicious, Jurassic 5, Little Brother, Slum Village... all the best guys.

[LucyFord23]

@jt78291 i saw that exact comment on another song but with a different rapper

[76gbrhusker]

@LucyFord23 i've seen that exact comment on many other videos with "underground" rap artists. and also a few with wack rappers who have blind sheep following them thinking that they got "swag". This is real doe

[LamarTaylor2k12]

This is poetry. This is Lyricism. This is Hip Hop.

[wojdak113]

Zion I is the shit, love this song

[akuu193]

whats the sample???

[MrElroy1029]

@akuu193 alan parson project old and wise

[snrjrdn]

fuck yes, this song is forever

[azza9000ful]

Zion I is hiphop with style! Zion I is life!

[iwrestledaturtle]

Zion is my graffiti name:D



[drum1982D]

[Aeonius88]

god it's such a cold morning, but you know...i quit weed smoking for a fair 3 months now...and now it's a very cold morning, had some good stash from a mate of mine...i had to smoke an l to this and celebrate this day....no shackles in our hearts, no shackles in our souls, no shackles in our dreams...our dreams...one love, may god be with you all...live in peace and grace brothers...

[meetkinggarrett]

@Aeonius88 hell yeah

[tanman965]

notice how no one ever says

hip-hopists

always hip-hop "artists"

[MrThirteen1]

Is it me or dose this sounds allot like a Dj Premier beat.Dose anyone know? love it this is true HIP HOP!

[isolated4f]

@MrThirteen1 DJ Premier never collaborated with Zion...yet! would love to see these guys working together

[merelymyopinion1]

this song is beautiful, and the lyrics are even more so...long live hip hop!

[JohannesDichtmann]

HIP HOP IS LIFE

[ghantiify]

The beginning sounds like an eminem song, I can't remember it but I recognize the beat

[anniviers89]

real hip hop don't stop

[Bertrumnern1]

Stolen from the Alan Parsons Project old and wise,

[eljacome]

@Bertrumnern1 it wasn't stolen, it's called "sampled" and it's totally legal, most of todays music is made by sampling good old music, specially Hip Hop artist. do a little search and you'll see how often a new song has a sampled classic song in it. good day

[FrickenSick]

@eljacome I agree with you but it's Not legal to sample.

[snrjrdn]

@FrickenSick thats the beauty of it.

[xXPheonix188]

Dope

[LUCIDfiIms]

this beat sounds alot like keishas song from kendrick lamar, hmmm!!

[boostjunkie92]

wheres the autotune?!? lol fuck that fake ass pussy hop this is real shit

[EvAcTsniping]

Damn, I miss shit like this. Now, it's all gay and people are trying to mix techno and rap together, nahh fuck that shit, like this is where it's at, and it's real. I used to listen to this in the car when I was like 5 i've loved it since. Damnnnn, missin the real shit.

[westside159]

any ol fool knew that you was a jewel " SICK

[PietroCRF]

man... this beat is the same as "styles P - shadows"

[adams792]

@PietroCRF Yeah..... and this album came out in 2005. Styles P collabo with Green Lantern didnt come out until 2010. Do some research or at least understand what you are talking about before you type. This version is much better anyways.

[PietroCRF]

@adams792 dude i didnt say that styles-p version is better than zion I, try to interpret what im saying dumbass

[adams792]

@PietroCRF nice work genius. You are still a tool though.

[TheFunkytownGotcha]

@PietroCRF welcome to Hip Hop/ Rap. Every single artist has a beat similar to anothers in their mix.

[TheHaydnrees]

This song isn't long enough to smoke a joint to, and it needs to be.

[omgnuub]

@TheHaydnrees gahahh my thoughts exactly

[lilmavin]

@TheHaydnrees play it on repeat!

[lebronte]

@TheHaydnrees well write "REPEAT" in the front of "YOUTUBE" at the link bar and have fun :D

[LaZee360]

@TheHaydnrees That cause this song wasn't made to smoke to.....It was made to listen to after you smoked~

[timexey]

in my opinion real hip hop!

[MindingMyOwnB]

@timexey I like how you said, "In my opinion." It's refreshing to just hear someone say what they think instead of telling other people how to think. Most people on here would have said, "This IS real hip hop." Anyways... just sayin.

[eearlethanearleearl]

"From the first time I saw you, infatuation

Pulled to the side to provide conversation

Wild reputation but you were so cool

Any old fool knew that you was a jewel" He described how i felt about hip-hop.

fuck all you bastards learning this shit from sites, Fuck all you mongoloids bitching bout lil wayne. and

for you who honestly appriciate hip hop god bless.

[97nicke]

luv it!<3

[showg0]

When you mention these so called mainstream rappers, and bad mouth them, you realize that you are giving them credit even though you think you're not. The name at the top should not even be mentioned, because it's almost like you are comparing him to that said artist. ZUmbi is obviously on a different path then most hip hop artist, and when you really think about it, ZUmbi is a rarity among other rappers. But do yourself a favor, do not mention those other people, you are only empowering them

[mtcw2790]

@showg0 lol relax bro its just talkin shit. world is gonna be the same whether it happens or not.

[showg0]

@mtcw2790 When did I ever show tension, or gave you the idea that I stated this unrelaxed? Hmm, maybe you should've had something better to say when responding like, agreed. I don't know, just a thought, bro.

[mtcw2790]

@showg0 i was just implying that you over think things, and theres another example lol

[mtcw2790]

@showg0

[jcast18k]

[Rayquaza124]
