Hey, my name is Zion.
my work is inspired by:
Things people say; triple entendres
Lines from my favorite movies; Kobe’s pump fake;
The guys I grew up with;
Strong ledes from featured stories; Westside Gunn lyrics.
FADER magazine profiles from last decade.
Zeugma; fearless Black folks; talking to my friends and family;
Television ads from 20 years ago and childhood memories.
Jay-Z is one of my favorite authors. James Baldwin is another. The best superhero films are The Dark Knight Trilogy.
I’ve always been quiet. I speak when there’s something to say. I believe imagination is a superpower.
