Welcome to 206zulu.com, a multifaceted resource for Seattle, Washington and worldwide Hip Hop, news, networking, music, upcoming events, and community projects. 206 Zulu is the Universal Zulu Nation Seattle Chapter. With members from all corners of the Pacific Northwest, 206 Zulu carries the vision and commitment to unify, preserve Hip Hop culture, educate, and empower our communities.
The Universal Zulu Nation, or UZN is a pioneering force that has been in effect since the inception of Hip Hop itself and continues to represent and innovate while striving for worldwide peace, equality and empowerment. The four main elements of Hip-Hop are deejaying, emceeing, b-boying/b-girling, graffiti and the fifth element is recognized as knowledge or the educational aspect of the culture.
These elements can be expressed both individually and/or collectively and can benefit the community on both local and global levels. These goals however are by no means limited to the art forms of Hip Hop and we look forward to sharing information of health, social awareness and other human resources.
Seattle Hip Hop bedrock King Khazm (MADK & 206 Zulu) springs a leak to the upcoming flood with "Drip Drop Drizzle", a banging anti-summer, summertime ode to Seattle Hip Hop. Produced by heavy-hitter Bean One and cuts by DJ Tecumseh, this tribute sheds a new light on the famously grey town skies with anthem authority. Poignant bars punctuated by deep, contagious bass (and shouts to an impressive list of Seattle scene cornerstones) make this track a formidable reintroduction of a veteran artist. This initial dip into Khazm's upcoming musical endeavors captures the artistic foundation of a man that is known locally and nationally for his dedication to culture and community. "Drip Drop Drizzle" is sure to resonate with young and seasoned listeners alike. Enjoy this free debut single, and stay tuned for more to come!
