Elzhi - Elmatic

If You Guys Take a trip down memory lane, you remeber this guy being in the icon video "Selfish " by Slum Village ft. Kanye West. The Big Homie "Elzhi" coming from the streets of Detroit gives his dedicated tribute to one of the illest projects in Hip Hop.

Read Up on Something You Been Sleeping On.


From the grimmy streets of Motown, Elzhi was part of the legendary group "Slum Village", thats how I  recogonized the slick MC. He's filling spot on the Vill anymore, the homie is using his ill wordplay to pay back of my favorite albums ever.

The sounds on this tape are very essential, he really brings back the 90's feel, but also showcases a smooth vibe to this generation who appericiates real hip hop. He displays that in songs like "Memory Lane", when he goes in depth on his memories of his life and hip hop, another favorite of mine is "One Love" when he exlpains his heart for a young lady that been through hard times in the past years.

My other favorites

- It Aint Hard to Tell
- Life's a Bitch
- The World is Yours
- Halftime

In conclusion, this tape is heavily slept on in most of the hip hop community, but those who recognize true hip hop vibes that bring back the feeling of '96 Nas, they will heavily enjoy this.
Hell, this guy even got a shout out by the Legend "Pete Rock".
Give The Guy a Chance, and Enjoy This Hip Hop.............Real Hip Hop
