Listen to More: Street, Dirty South
The New York Times called him “one of America’s most underrated rappers,” but in the South, Z-Ro has built a reputation as one of the game’s best. On his new single, Top Notch, the emcee seeks to expand his reach beyond Harris County. Sampling Houston’s legendary Pimp C, Z-Ro’s sing-song style is no parts Akon, T-Pain or Nate Dogg, but carries the same addictive quality that made him a standout on songs like Get Throwed and Draped Up (Remix). Mr. Lee, a Texas production staple, provides the ingredients Mr. McVey needs to cook up that street goodness on this track off Z-Ro’s 12th studio album, Crack (out now). If Top Notch is any indication of the new direction Z-Ro is headed, he may have some new customers knocking on his door very soon.

Z-Ro goin hard here. Not my favorite kind of style, but this one was pretty enjoyable. Pimp C sample was pretty cool in that chorus even though I'm gettin kind of sick of these chorus's with samples that take 1 line from the song and repeat it for the whole time. I like Z-Ro's flow on here though, song is pretty catchy. in rotation here. |

One of the best joints on "Crack." Z-Ro is a ghost amongst hip-hop listeners out the south. Join the bandwagon people... you'll have music for days to listen to from this man... DJ Booth on Twitter |

z-ro is pretty much in the shadow of h-town but he's been doing his thing for awhile..go listen to "Z-ro vs the world", now thats some oldschool. I think he was even dissin 50 back in the day. It would be a bit weird to hear z-ro on the radio because in my book he's the defination of underground. |

I like Z-Ro's style. He reminds me of Juvi alil. Good sample although I gotta agree with cb about the sample issue. This one works for me. |

Z-Ro goes hard on this beat but the main sample on this song is definately the one used on both Freeways "Baby Don't Do It" and Jeezy's "Don't Do It" off The Recession. Herd it too much recently but still dope |

Z-Ro needs to ditch this producer because some of this song doesn't sound right...Z-Ro and the late Pimp C doing the chorus together (two totally different sounds). I'm giving it 5 stars because I'm bias. |

Knew I was going to like this as soon as I heard the chorus; underrated rapper and producer as well, Mr. Lee, who does work for most of the H-Town artists; many will be drinkin' and smokin' to this one...love the old-school soul beats..LOVE THEM!!! |

yeah Ro been one of the Top Ten for the longest, this song is no exception to the rest of the songs as his track record. One thing I will say is, THAT IM TIRED OF HEARIN SONGS OF THE SAME SAMPLE, BUT ALOT OF ARTIST KEEPS DOING THEM, ID HAVE TO AGREE WITH REECELEEDS, I DIDT EVEN HEAR FREEWAYS, "DONT DO IT", BUT I DID JAM "NEVE EVA" OFF THE RECESSION, THE SONG IS CALLED NEVE EVA REECELEEDS.
