Zip, from Elgin, South Carolina, is a rapper with big dreams and a clear vision for the future. He believes that South Carolina has so much untapped potential, especially in cities like the Met (Columbia), Greenville, and surrounding areas. The state is full of talent, and Zip feels that it’s time for the world to recognize it. South Carolina has already produced plenty of big artists, entertainers, actors, athletes, and more, with many coming from out of state to South Carolina for events. Zip knows that the state is buzzing with motion. Even Lil’ Boosie has said he loves coming to South Carolina, which is a huge testament to the state’s growing influence.
For Zip, the ultimate goal is to have his music heard around the world. He wants to travel to different countries and perform live on global stages. But it doesn’t stop there. Zip also aims to collaborate with big-time artists, securing major features. He also values working with underground artists, understanding that talent exists in all corners of the music world.
Zip is also determined to change the perspective of rap music. In today’s world, people often only pay attention to artists when they have money or are involved in violent situations, rather than appreciating their actual talent. Zip’s goal is for people to truly listen to his bars and understand the depth of his lyrics. To him, music is art, and he takes pride in his craft. He raps about more than just flashy topics—he wants to touch on themes that resonate with a broader audience, appealing to people from all walks of life.
