"The Concerto" is the debut solo single by Bronx born hip-hop artist The ZYG 808, from his forthcoming album "The Intro". The ZYG 808 first came to national attention as a member of the Grammy nominated band, The GroovaLottos as well as his verse on the
Soul Poet's Syndicate's track and appearance in the music video "Flippin".
An un apologetic Boom Bap Backpack artist, his lyrical style, content and knack for unusual song forms ("The Concerto", for example, is in three distinct sections, with no bridge) set him apart from all others in the game. '808' is a reference to his
unique ability to rap and play drums at the same time, astounding audiences up and down the east coast.
At the age of 7, The ZYG 808 made his debut as a studio session percussionist. By age 12, he was headlining the Boston Jazz Fest as a jazz fusion drummer. At age 13, he joined the multi-Grammy nominated band The GroovaLottos as a percussionist and
featured MC.
The ZYG 808 is definitely an upcoming artist to watch.
