None Heatbox and Big Zach at Martyrs'
If you’re a fan of Twin Cities hip-hop, you’ve probably heard the name Big Zach. The 34-year-old MC has been an active member of the local scene for more than a decade, spitting rhymes solo and in the groups Kanser and More Than Lights. He has also hosted regular rap showcases and battle nights over the years, including the weekly Headspin Sundays that helped launch big local names like Brother Ali. Zach is from Bemidji, Minnesota, and is a hallucinogens enthusiast and fridge-surfing rake who says, on his March 2011 solo album, that his “life has been one long weekend,” arrest record aside, and tells love interests he’d “like to apply to be your next ex-boyfriend.” Now, Zach’s sharing years of memories and advice in his new book, Headspin, Headshots & History: Growing Up In Twin Cities Hip-Hop.
