Born in Saginaw, Michigan, but truly shaped by the vibrant streets of Chicago, Zip Green stands out as an innovative force in the music world. His deep-rooted passion for music can be traced back to childhood days filled with the rhythmic hum of house speakers and the thunderous bass of 12-inch subs in old-school cars. For Zip, music was more than just sound; it was a lifeline, a way to transcend the harsh realities of the world.
Inspired by the profound impact music had on his family, Zip set out on a mission: to make the world feel empowered and liberated, just as music had done for him. “I wanted to make the world feel how music made us feel—like we could do anything,” he shares. This vision gave birth to a unique genre he calls “karma music.”
Karma music is not just a sound; it’s a philosophy. It’s about understanding why we are who we are, influenced by our environment, the people around us, and the energy we project into the world. This genre explores how our actions and vibrations return to us in various forms, offering a deeper reflection of life’s journey.
One of Zip’s favorite lyrics captures this essence perfectly:
“I know exactly what you thinking gangsta yea it’s been some time
Since u felt like u was happy and had your goals in all aline
Don’t even worry about it with this transformation we turn to gods.”
Through his music, Zip Green aims to spread spiritual awareness and encourage healing from the traumas inflicted by the world. His goal isn’t just to entertain but to inspire transformation and self-discovery.
Currently, Zip is promoting his projects “Full Metal Jacket” and “Heartbreak for the Summer 2” on YouTube and other social media platforms under his name, “Zip Green.” These works encapsulate his journey and message, inviting listeners to embark on a path of introspection and growth.
Zip Green is not just making music; he’s crafting a movement—a call to understand ourselves and the world around us through the powerful lens of karma music. As he continues to carve out his path, one thing is clear: Zip Green is a name we’ll be hearing for years to come.
