zack is a fucking, greatly overlooked rapper, probably pushed to the sidelines that Rage are viewed as a rock band, but zack's voice is instantly recognisable and his flow and delivery is raspy fineness
Why's that a question?? YES, Treize, you should miss him, although keep watch!! He's back with Rage, in a way, with Chuck D and B-Real I hear. ..and Rage included of course
The rock fans never quite understood how talented he is I think. After I got deep into hip hop, I looked at Zach in a whole new way. Now, I honestly think he’s one of the greatest to ever do it. Saying a lot I know but seriously, who else can do what he does???
Zack is not a sell-out like most other artists and groups that keep going on just for the money. His voice was always about the message, and I highly respect him for that.
Zach has always called out the corruption in politics and the police. He is a very valuable asset to the movement. His music is in a category all by itself. One of the greatest of all time. Nothing but love for this legend
The first thing I ever heard, aged 12, which resembled hip hop was the RATM - RATM album. For me today, De la Rocha still has the most interesting flow and lyrical style of any MC. His contribution to hip-hop, rap, spitting (whatever you want to call what he does) should go down in musical history.
its nothing like hip hop its classified as rock they just got a good "flow" dose not mean its hip hop nobody back in the day said this sounds like hip hop they said rock
Funny you should mention Bob Dylan here... ZDL looks like Dylan when he was younger. There was an insert for one of the Dylan albums I bought, i think it was the co album with Johnny Cash, I could have sworn that ZDL could have been his son, or related to him in some way because holy shit near identical
Curt Nix Bob was lost to most?! Hahaha Are you twelve trying to rewrite history? Yeah, Blowing in the Wind, Masters of War, Hard Rain, Times They are A Changing, Oxford Town, Hattie Carroll, Hurricane, With God on Our Side, Chimes of Freedom, Maggie's Farm for starters... Yeah, yeah, yeah soooo cryptic that they inspired an entire generation to politically organize and mobilize. Right! Zach reached more than Dylan. Hahaha. That's why Zach has the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the USA's highest honor for civilians, the Nobel Prize for Literature, the Legion of Honor medal in France, the National Medal of Arts, the Prince of Asturias Award in Spain, the Commander of the Arts and Letters in France amongst countless others recognizing his social, musical and lyrical contributions. Oh, wait, that was Dylan who is regarded like that, not Zach. Ohhh. I love Zach and RATM but dude, don't sound like and uneducated idiot. Don't write dumb shit just to say opinions when they are not factual. Just, you know, don't share shit when you don't know shit.
Zac de la Rocha has this ability to move people so amazingly with his voice. The flow is a wave of power I have never seen from another poet. It's something to see and behold. I wish he would write more and more music.
Zack will own any beat, he brings music to life. I know many that never even bothered to listen to his messages. Anything he produced/produces has a message. Usually a deep one, you don't find that to often anymore. It's the way music is supposed to be. I've not listened to anything with him in it that hasn't been epic.
Jagerlette--And truth to life as well! # His lyrics strike a chord in the mind, key words and such, in a voice tone, which lay the platform for deeper thoughts he has in those words, due to the affects of the instruments of a somewhat sinister sound, that back up those words==brilliance in getting truth in a message across --Advanced occult 101.. The TRUTH is totally INSANE!!!!!!#
Yeah, sure "way better" but who's touring when he's needed most? Of course I absolutely adore him, but you know who's touring? The rest of Rage is, and this is regardless of whatever reason Zack has for his absence. If he doesn't show his face before this election, then why should we all be putting him on a pedestal?
I was lucky! I discovered it 9 years ago because a Seattle station played it and I got the station somehow down in Astoria, OR. Like a breath of fresh air!
His voice is perfect, but even better his delivery of each verse is executed perfectly. It's like watching someone who has perfected their art do it effortlessly.
Zach will always be the shit cause his inner soul is real and tells our story of life growing up representing our heritage and culture! Por Vida La Rasa!
He also speaks for brown kids who grew up in white suburbs and internalized hatred because of it. I respect his people and heritage in that way but in every other way we have a common background and he channeled his anger into a real product and skillset that uplifts ALL of us who have been on the inside-out.
"In this era where DJs, behave, be paid to be slaves! We raid airwaves to be sane!" -Zack de la Rocha! I named my only son Zack, in honor and respect for this man! Forever Rage!...
I have a coworker who looks like Zack, but acts nothing like him. Coworker is laidback, light-hearted, and has little-to-no musical savvy. But now, I cannot unsee my coworker spitting sick rhymes whenever I see a vid of Zack. Talk about weird feeling...
Somewhere I read that he was recovered for some psychological problems... I think you'll be no more able to see him at his best. I doubt he will even go for tour or on any relevant stage. This was his legacy, I think.
Zach = amongst the top 10 greatest MC of all time, all era, all styles. It's the "My mic is my weapon" mind state that's missing nowadays. Kids watch and learn...
Zack you inspired me to EMC I love you dude Rage hit me in 2004 and I've been inspired since! Thank you brother thank you from the bottom of my heart !
Damn this sound is so awesome. True rebellion and creativity. Loving One Day As A Lion and also other rebellious rap based acts like RATM, Public Enemy, Dead Prez, Immortal Technique, Akala, Bob Vylan, Allflaws

It's that long beach influence I feel.
The problem with rap fans is the majority don't want quality. They want poppy garbage.
Who will still listen to this in 2500 👍
Me if they hurry up developing an android where I can upload my consciousness 😂
If we win, lots of people. If we lose, no one, and not to anything else either.
The way I love my drums and vocals….extra crispy
Zack is a beast on the mic, always was, always will be. Criminally underrated rapper.

Zach is one of the best MCs of the 90s. Iconic voice.
* of all time. there i fixed it for you ;)
A living legend.
Stone cold
90s he still rocks and this 2020 bitch
EVER....timeless
Zack is not a sell-out like most other artists and groups that keep going on just for the money. His voice was always about the message, and I highly respect him for that.
I hope to hear more of his voice soon!

Yep

20 years and the problems that Rage enlightened us about are still happening. Now more than ever we need another Rage album
+Chiko was here Not the hero we deserve, but the one we need right now.
Wake up :/ do you really need rock stars to 'enlighten' you and save the world? Get real!
Kids do, that's where they get it from
+Chiko was here no we need a rage movement....A march to the front gates of the white house Blaring this song would be something amazing to see.
+Chiko was here I do agree we need more bands to speak the truth,. But from part of the one that know this, we need to take action!!
Who still listening in 2020!
Are you hot?
@@angryangelant9519 😂😂😂
ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone who isn't should be

Zack flows like no other, with messages that need to be heard.
What a Solid Groove by Mr Jon Theodore!🤘🏼🔥
Word on the street, is that they iced down his right arm for a full year, after the assault he laid down on that high hat...
"they say that in war truth will be the first casualty" - what we see today
Pretty much true in every aspect of life especially today

This still goes so hard. A timeless classic
The fact that this doesn't have more views is the problem we all face today.

Timothy Clarke RATM is not hip hop its rock and so is one day as a lion
zacas salinas an interesting opinion. Do you want to back that up Zacas?
its nothing like hip hop its classified as rock they just got a good "flow" dose not mean its hip hop nobody back in the day said this sounds like hip hop they said rock
zacas salinas again, what to you doesn't make this hip hop? and who classified this as rock i would love to know.
no i listen to ALL of it. thats the point.
Zach de la Rocha-A dark Dylan reborn, spitting lyrics with a fierce rage!
Bob was way too cryptic. Lost on most. Zach potent lyric clear

Шикарный звук и текст, спасибо
Zack is right up there with the greatest lyricists of all time! Top 10 easy.
Still hits so hard- incredible!!!
"In this era where DJs behave
Be paid to be slaves
We raid airwaves to be sane"
Woooooooooooooooo
Yeesh!
"We raid airwaves to be SAVED"
yeah man his flow is so smoth
@@kyndread71 sorry but its sane, not saved
Zach is easily one of the absolute best MCs/mic rockers of all time
I come back so often. While a lot of people followed Tom, I had such love for the grand lyricist. I wish there was a lot more of this.
This sound is the worthy successor and the natural evolution of the soul and sound RATM. Zack, more of that man.
His voice is perfect, but even better his delivery of each verse is executed perfectly. It's like watching someone who has perfected their art do it effortlessly.

Man, I wish Zach was more prolific as a solo artist. All we really have is this EP and a few guest spots since RATM broke up.
Miss his rhymes
Somewhere I read that he was recovered for some psychological problems... I think you'll be no more able to see him at his best. I doubt he will even go for tour or on any relevant stage. This was his legacy, I think.
We also have Digging for Windows. But RATM is getting back together so pray for new music.
Amen man..I was glad to hear him on that Run The Jewels track a few years back!
Wow- this one HITS!
Still love this song !
