 Los Angeles based rapper 40 Glocc has been riding hard with his Infamous family (including Prodigy and Havoc) and his extended G-Unit brethren for years now. But, with his profile rising as a certified solo act, 40 is ready introduce his own movement called Zoo Life.
With an indie distribution deal in place, his first order of business will be the release of Concrete Jungle, a compilation introducing himself and the artists connected to his Zoo Life movement.
Some of those artists include Village Boo, Lil Boo, Tip-Toe, Yac, Notes and Gail Gotti, among others.
"Zoo Life is my crew, at the same time, an extension of what everybody is going through. It's more of a movement, which is why I don't it a crew," 40 Glocc explains. "We pushing that new reality movement, that street movement that everybody's been missing."
The 22-track effort will feature cuts delving into the some of the problems plaguing the inner-cities of America, specially those he and the Zoo Life deal with on a daily basis, as well as life problems in general.
But, as 40 explains, the music from he and his crew tackle harder issues, not usually touched by today's hip-pop hits that focus more on jewelry and bottle poppin' than anything else.
"[Concrete Jungle] is basically saying the streets is the jungle. The minority is the majority, but society calls us like ... they known to call us animals," 40 tells BallerStatus.com. "I came up with the idea, like 'Ok, you wanna call us animals, then it's like we living in a zoo, and the streets is our jungle.' I look as animals as being untamed, so that's why I thought of the wild lifestyle, the Zoo Life. The streets is the jungle for us."
The forthcoming album will give verbal details of the unapologetic struggles faced within the Zoo Life, shedding life on the highs and lows of general population lifestyle, the smoke and mirrors witnessed daily from blogs to broadcast, and the complicated order of the music industry.
Strongly supported by the G-Unit fam and 50 Cent himself, the saga continues to bridge the East Coast to West Coast gap as a unified movement amongst a chosen few.
40 Glocc gives his testimony on December 8th, when Concrete Jungle hits digital retailers and iTunes.
