I won't pretend to understand Z Capone's perspective in his latest track, "Ima Gang Member," but I will share my thoughts on this new video from the talented artist hailing from Tacoma, Washington's Hilltop neighborhood.


In his single, Z Capone touches on real experiences, paying homage to lost loved ones like Tanaa Money, Glewie Sparccs, and King Squeeze, as well as those incarcerated. His delivery and the subdued beat evoke strong emotions, steering away from glorifying gang life.


The video pays tribute to Tanaa Money and seamlessly complements the song's tone and lyrics. With appearances by Shoulderz da Loc and vivid depictions of the Hilltop community, the visuals provide insight into Z Capone's life and struggles, adding depth to the song's narrative.


Z Capone isn't just depicting gang life; he's sharing a heartfelt story that resonates with many who have faced similar challenges. Check out the impactful video below.
