The ZYG 808 is a producer and MC/rapper. There is a distinction, as while all hip-hop MCs are rappers, not all rappers are MCs. One subtle difference is that rappers perform songs, MCs engage their audience and interact, just as the term 'Master of Ceremonies' suggests. Aside from that, a common fact about rappers and MCs: the content of their lyrics are based on things they think about, live, see, hear, or imagine. The mind of the rapper is the true launch pad of a song's content. Rap can be poems, and deep lyrics to get the crowd thinking or chants and grunts to get the crowd hyped at the party. Rappers can talk about parties, sex, violence, drugs, progress, or nonsense… whatever's on the rapper's mind. What if the rapper thinks about social and political issues? There we have a brand of hip-hop and youthful expression that is true to the spirit of the form!

Citing a a series of hip-hop artists and acts from his region, like
Busted Fro, Krook Roc, Da Rock, and Tem Blessed, The ZYG 808 coined the term 'Southcoast Thump' as a name for the common elements found in the hip-hop of southern New England region: fat beats mixed with Caribbean and creole/ Cabo Verdean melodic elements, underlying lyrics that run the gambit from playful to socially and politically conscious.
