Nuthin but a G thang...what a classic
That whole Los Angeles thing, when black folks dominated the landscape there...old days for sure, but memorable ones for many over the age of 40.

21 questions, who can argue this song isn't still so relevant after all these years.
50 cent for sure belongs in the Zones hall of fame.

This song, this groove, should be number 1 on here...wow Just can't get more 'raw' and old school than this...sorry...this here tops the charts!!!! Gosh dang man, notice old 'G' rapper holding a shot gun while spitting up freestyle rhyme?! (at 2:44) Pure old school, life just as dangerous back then as is now, but at least back then political correctness hadn't arrived yet.

Hard knock Life - 1998
Wow, can't believe this song was released way back in 1998...wow, boy how time fly's.
Well just heard it again today while putting together a show, and it was just the right song to play.
JZ the rapper was a bit more 'street' back then, now they're like a billionaire....no more hard knocks life for them, that's for sure.

Gosh does this song so much belong here, if already posted earlier I do apologize
So love that one ragedy guy at 3:09, the last rapper dude, they're so ragged and rugged, they remind me of, well, me...
Love this song, this grove...and now apart of the Zone's Hall of Fame best classic rap songs ever.

Who shat ya...Biggie
Watch the movie, so intriging how after Pac's death, people booed Biggie, until he just said 'F it and sung this song in Sacramento California, and embraced his 'bad boy' image...

The Game - 100ft Drake
This kind of a off beat rap classic, in that sadly 'The Game' so buried behind 50 cent's name and brand, that once he left their union, many just figured the guy was gone and dead...well actually he wasn't and still created many very cool hip-hop groves, and here's one of them.

Notice how rappers always find the 'hot' looking black females, yet Hollywood always casts the stereotypical ones...hmm
Nice flow

Lil Flip - Sunshine...wow, what a beautiful flow I think this is like romantic type of rap..but it flows so well. I notice when 'black men' allowed to cast own women, they look oh so hot, but I also notice when Jewish men in Hollywood cast black females, they always cast fat, maid looking type of women, that look like they just stepped off of slave ship...why is that??? How come older Jewish men, who run Hollywood, so go out of their way to make black women, people look so bad???....why....why? Yet when black guys allowed to cast women for their videos or productions, they always seem to find angelic looking women... How come Jews love making black women look bad, yet black guys like making women look good?? Cause in these videos, all the black females look like angels.

Public Enemy number 1...1987
These guys dominated the hip-hop airwaves for about 5 years solid, and then had spin off shows after that..this was a kind of break out, cross over type rap group, in that they didn't really attract the mainstream but believe it or not rather 'punk rocker' types, another underground class of musicians or expression.
Today's generation has totally forgotten about Public Enemy, but the Zone hasn't.
