Zumo Kollie - Times of Our Lives
Artist: Zumo Kollie
Producer: K-Salaam & Beatnick
Album: Last Showing
Label: Unsigned
It’s a sentiment that’s been expressed countless times in as many forms, but it bears repeating: you only get one life, so make it a good one. Unless you’re lucky enough to be Buddhist, Hindu, Sikh, Jainist, Druid, Cathar, Druze, Rosicrucian or a Kabbalah follower, in which case it looks like you can expect another shot. But I digress – whatever your take on life and the hereafter, I think we can all get behind Zumo Kollie‘s latest single, Times of Our Lives, on which the R.I. native pledges to make every moment count. Backed by the lush sample work of K-Salaam & Beatnick, the young emcee showcases wisdom beyond his years; well aware of just how long and arduous the road to the top is, he’s nonetheless determined to touch the stars: “Avoid all the bull so I step with a purpose… nah, I’m not worried, I’m anxious because I’m workin, I can’t accept I get close and can’t form it perfect.” Think this up-and-comer’s got what it takes to make an indelible mark on the game? Debate away – or withhold judgment till you’ve peeped what he has to offer on his Last Showing LP, due out in Jan. 2011.

Hadn't heard of Zumo before last week, but thanks to an introduction from K-Salaam he is now featured on our homepage. "Times of Our Lives" is an extremely solid, worth a repeat listen, hip hop record. Its smooth, it makes you feel good, and is rather enjoyable.

When i first pressed play on this one and heard the first few seconds i thought this was gonna be more of a K-Salaam & Beatnick ft. Zumo Kollie....but then this underground guy who i've never heard of came on and started spitting and i have to say Zumo Kollie has a nice flow and some big time potential.

Salaam and Beatnik always come through on the production, and this is no different. With a backdrop like this anyone would sound good, and Zumo comes through with a solid flow. Nice.

Well, this is my first time hearing from Zumo Kollie, and this is a good first impression for me. He has very nice talent on the mic. His lyrics are nice and on point. And i will always respect that from ppl in the game. As for the production from K-Salaam & Beatnick, i really like what they did. "Times of Our Lives" is a overall ok song. In rotation for me.
