XV - Theme to Vizzy Zone
Artist: XV
Producer: Seven
Album: Vizzy Zone
Label: Square Bound Music/Warner Bros.
For months we waited for Kansas representer, Booth favorite and recent Warner Bros. signee XV to release his highly anticipated mixtape Vizzy Zone. Thankfully, once it actually dropped last week we learned it was worth every minute of the wait, thanks in no small part to records like Theme to Vizzy Zone. Frequent production partner Seven might have flipped stranger samples than Gloria Gaynor’s classic disco hit I Will Survive into hip-hop bangers, but I doubt it, and the result is an head-nodding beat that XV sends into the stratosphere with more of his trademark flawless flows and pop culture heavy references: “Cue the strings, getting my Eleanor Rigby on / I left and came back right for those who did me wrong…man I’m out of here / standing out like a fu**king zebra in a crowd of deer.” The man’s nothing if not original. Keep it locked to the Booth for the exclusive release of an untagged and deluxe version of Vizzy Zone, due to hit our homepage next week, September 23. Now word yet on where the Vizzy Zone is located in relation to Kenny Loggins’ Danger Zone.

There are very few emcee/producer combo's who could flip Gloria Gaynor into a dope rap record. Ladies and gentlemen, XV and Seven.

The one, the only, XV. I can't think of any other emcee who would come up with that deer/zebra line, originality is here.

Come Viz, I can't listen to anything but this classic sample, to me it completely overshadows everything Viz is doing on this track. I can't co-sign this track simply because the sample is too much of a cloud hanging over Viz's head.

It was cool and alright it didn't really catch my ears. But it was sort of average.
