In the midst of the global turmoil brought on by Covid-19, zen., formerly known as Fay Z, emerged with a powerful message in the form of “Driveway Freestyle.” The year was 2020, and as headlines swirled with pandemic woes, zen. saw an alarming lack of originality and depth in the music world. He wasn’t about to stand by as artists tossed around frivolous lines while the world suffered. “Driveway Freestyle” is a fearless call-out to those who flaunted their supposed community efforts while indulging in wasteful spending. It’s a lyrical critique of a rap game drowning in superficialities, offering a poetic yet hard-hitting flow that’s quintessentially zen. The track doesn’t shy away from addressing the tense political climate of the time, serving as a powerful mirror to society’s shortcomings. Zen., a true creative force, fuses influences from pop punk, electronic, R&B, and melodic hip-hop to craft a unique sound that resonates deeply. His journey from guitar-playing bands in Atlanta and Dallas to DJing and independent music production showcases his diverse musical evolution. As a co-founder of ZIVEИCHY Art Collective and a collaborator with rising artist zera (niruedo), zen. is a beacon of inspiration. Drawing wisdom from icons like Kanye West, JAY-Z, and Lil Wayne, as well as genre-defying talents like XXXTENTACION and Yung Lean, he’s crafting a legacy of melodic, lyrical, and inspiring music. Beyond the music realm, zen. is a personal coach, educational consultant, and serial entrepreneur, striving to elevate listeners to their highest potential. His upcoming debut album, “XX Self Awareness,” delves into emotional intelligence, ego, mental health, and the human experience. With zen.’s signature storytelling and hard-hitting hip-hop style, this album promises to be a transformative journey of introspection and growth. Mixed and mastered by zera, produced by guy winter.
