Zazilla has set out to prove he is the next artist from Salt Lake City to blow up!
In the dynamic world of rap, emerging artists constantly seek unique opportunities to make a mark on the industry. For rapper Zazilla, the journey to collaborate with That Mexican OT on “OHHH MYY” was a testament to patience, opportunity, and the invaluable role of mentors in the music business.
Zazilla’s connection with That Mexican OT was a result of a combination of fate and strategic planning. Having been a fan of OT since 2021, Zazilla initiated the conversation through direct messages, expressing his desire for a collaboration. Months of anticipation and groundwork led to the serendipitous moment when OT was scheduled to perform in the city.
However, faced with the temptation of a weekend in Las Vegas, Zazilla nearly missed the chance. A timely intervention from his friend N8 made him reconsider, and the decision to stay proved pivotal for his career. Watching OT’s performance and immediately heading to the studio afterward highlighted the organic nature of their collaboration, setting the stage for the release of “OHHH MYYY.”
The track holds immense importance for Zazilla as it serves as his introduction to the music industry. Beyond personal milestones, “OHHH MYYY” stands as a significant representation of the Utah music scene and the rising influence of Mexican rap artists. The decision to release the track aligns with Zazilla’s belief in timing and the guidance of his close circle, including N8, Brisk, and his cousin Chino.
Zazilla’s relationship with Big Fedi Records, spearheaded by his cousin Chino, has been instrumental in his journey. The open and supportive dynamic allows Zazilla to exercise creative control while benefiting from Chino’s experience in the industry. The label’s history, including Chino’s previous collaborations with renowned artists, adds a layer of legacy to Zazilla’s journey.
Looking ahead to the rest of 2023, Zazilla remains focused on growth and grind. With a four-year-old son looking up to him, he’s committed to being a better version of himself and achieving his rap aspirations. Zazilla aims to elevate Salt Lake City’s music scene, recognizing its untapped potential.
Zazilla’s journey, from the inception of “OHHH MYYY” to his plans for the future, is a testament to the resilience, strategic thinking, and supportive relationships that shape an artist’s career. With Big Fedi Records, The Plug Brand, and a clear vision for the future, Zazilla is set to leave an indelible mark on the rap scene.
