I'm from Detroit, so I was able to hear solo material from Elzhi back in the late 90s; before he linked up with Slum Village. While he gained national exposure working with Slum Village, he was unfortunate enough to be working with the crew during a time that two of their core members died (Dilla & Baatin). Nevertheless, he proved he could shine as a solo MC by dropping last years Elmatic. Finally, Elzhi is about to drop a project called "The Weather Report" which will be his proper debut. With no need to worry about group politics, and his tribute to Illmatic off of his chest, Elzhi may have a classic of his own on the way...Peep the video for "Blue Widow"
