[edit] History
At 8, he moved into the ghetto area in Colton, California known as the "Zoo". Glocc tells that the strong lyrics he is best known for came from the wisdom and heart it took to survive in this ghetto area.[citation needed] In September 1997, out of an association of 40 Glocc with K-9 and Natural Born, the Zoo Crew was started and subsequently released their first album, Migrate, Adapt or Die, a production of Tony and Julio G. In 2006, 40 Glocc made an album with the Hi-Power Soldierz crew.[1] 40 Glocc has recently appeared on some G-Unit Radio mixtapes, doing songs with 50 Cent, and G-Unit. He is signed to the Infamous, G-Unit camp. [1] This is due to the fact that Mobb Deep is signed to G-Unit Records. 40 Glocc diss The Game on a track called "The Ressurection" with the "It's Okay (One Blood)" beat replying to his diss "Funeral 100 bars" where he mentions his name.
He also performed with Havoc of Mobb Deep in India.
