In 2006, Zion I and The Grouch, two of the bigger names in Bay Area hip-hop, teamed up to deliver Heroes in the City of Dope. The album turned out to be a refreshing collaboration, full of exquisite wordplay and rubbery, hyphy-inspired production. It also served as a return to form for two acts whose previous releases had been a bit stale. Now they're ready to revisit this project, with plans to release a second album Heroes in the City of Healing and embark on a nationwide tour in support.
