Who is Zay3K?
Zay3K is a San Antonio artist who found music in college after years of excelling in sports without true passion. Once he started creating, it clicked — natural, driven, and building from the ground up alongside his crew.
The Interview
Q. Where are you from?
San Antonio.
Q. When and what inspired you to start recording your music?
When I was coming up in high school everybody told me to make music but I never actually wanted to until I started college. I did sports and stuff and I was always good at everything but I didn't have passion for it. When I decided to do music it felt natural.
Q. Which famous musicians do you admire? Why?
Hans Zimmer for the way he's able to depict a specific feeling, experience or emotion using all kinds of sounds.
Q. What are your fondest musical memories?
My best memories are the times when I see someone genuinely moved by what I'm doing. I remember it all.
Q. Who are your favorite musicians? Groups?
Deftones, Xxxtentacion, Lil Tracy, Shy Glizzy, Juice WRLD and Lil Dude.
Q. How do you balance your music with other obligations?
I just have a strong why. Anything I do has a purpose, I know where I'm going and I know what'll put me further. Realistically everything I'm doing is going back to music anyways.
Q. Where do you expect to be in the next 2 years?
In the next 2 years I expect to be taking over the music scene and cultivating a new way of thinking and living that transfers to my supporters and the youth.
