@Swiftisraelofficial is doing way more than "Staying Alive".
Central Illinois native, Swift Israel has been making major moves within the recording industry over the past several months. Using his creativity to create "Rael mixes" to some of today's hottest songs have sparked interest in the burgeoning artist's career. Taking on songs like Mooski's "Trackstar", Future's "Puffin' On Zooties" & his tribute to fallen rapper, Nipsey Hussle on "Long Live Nipsey Hussle" have given Swift a solid foundation on which to build.

@misterozone4 a.k.a Sensai Doog is one of the game's hardest working rappers. Dropping not one, but two full length projects on the same day, Doog puts his versatility on full display with Passionate Love. Taking a different approach and with a clear aim toward music for the ladies the Sensai uses this album to show off seldom seen vulnerabilities. Passionate Love serves as the blueprint to a Zoo Cru members heart.
