DJ Amplive and emcee extraordinaire Zumbi of Zion I have garnered a notable level of respect in both the underground and mainstream, and as the rest of the world gets hotter than hell, the duo brings a little bit of West Coast cool on this new remix of Gotsta Chill. The futuristic cutting of EPMD’s You Gotsta Chill gets a dose of California love and a pinch of Brooklyn as Talib Kweli has words with the game’s teenage drama queens. In a refreshing change from today’s oft-irritating “dare to be diffferent” producers, this remix, off of The Search & The Seizure mixtape, makes use of live instrumentation. Kweli seems comfortable with his ability to ride a beat and make heads connect the dots with a heavy barrage of pop culture references, while Zumbi completes the picture with his usual poetic and socially-conscious lyrics.

I really do not dig the production on this joint. The eclectic mixing style was interesting and Talib came nicely as always. I don't know though, I can only give this 2 stars though.

The irony of this production is that the beat is exactly what many listeners will think "Gotsta Chill." That is, however, what they are going with; the explanation of the song's out-of-leftfield sound is in the title!

Kweli rarely disappoints and Zumbi holds his own.

Another annoying song...the beat isn't bad but I don't like the music and the repeated sounds (sorry I don't know how to define them lol)! I wouldn't put it in my mp3 player, but I think it could go in the clubs...it's a kinda alternative song!
