Listen to the flow and rhythm…the words…the pacing…the tone…the EVERYTHING about the verse from about fifty-seconds to a-minute-twenty…it’s STELLAR. I love absolutely every second that ticks by in this thirty-seconds of brilliance cleverly disguised into this aggressive dance-rhythm…and you’ll get another dose before two-minutes-twenty with another verse that packs another half-minute wall-to-wall with charisma, precision & a seriously flashy-style that OnPlanetZu owns with confidence. [My Kind of Party]”

“…there’s some superior potential here really…those verses really indicate some strong, strong writing in this project and I’d love to hear OnPlanetZu go on to really play to those strengths in the future. [My Kind of Party]”

Hip Hop Lives OnPlanetZu! OnPlanetZu is the natural evolution of HIP HOP. If the art form was never tampered with, He'd be the full growth/expression of the music itself. His un-apologetic approach to music crosses several genres and, reminds me of my favorite artists past like ODB, Busta Rhymes, Chuck D, KRS1”

“'Speakers' has steadily decimated the hi-fi hardware of dubstep fans all over the world, but we don't hear anyone complaining - or much of anything at all - we're deaf from blasting this def track ourselves.”
Lauren Thompson - Marquix Global Network - Global Network
“...if you bring a new gun to the range, you better have the best bullets chambered. And Zu does not fail to come supplied. 'Speakers' is singularly capable of chewing up woofers and weak musicians, and woe betide anyone caught shambling for safety in the path of its monumental sound.”
Lauren Thompson - Marquix Global Network - Marquix Global Network
'Speakers' shoves frayed samples through the amp like logs into a wood-chipper, running reckless over would-be competitors to party prominence.'”

electronic elements that include pitch shifts, jerky rhythms, and a satisfying bass line... Extreme distortion defines “Bass America” which serves as one of the highlights of the album and a particularly excellent example of how to effectively drop the bass.”

“Blending dubstep, rock, and hip-hop effortlessly, OnPlanetZu incorporates modern sounds while adhering to classic rock and hip-hop conventions.”

“OnPlanetZu is creating a scene all their own in LA, delivering high energy dubstep mixed with punk and hiphop. With a new single “Speakers” out and gaining an onslaught of new fans daily, OnPlanetZu is one of those rare acts that you just can’t help but rock out to, tap your foot or raise a metal fist”
