In this electrifying episode, host Xavier Mercado dives into an inspiring conversation with Zonk Rolan, a dynamic Latin artist from Milwaukee. Born in Las Piedras, Puerto Rico, Zonk takes us on a thrilling journey from his childhood move to the U.S. at ten, to his unstoppable rise in the punk rock scene.
With a fearless, spontaneous approach to music, Zonk passionately reveals the importance of capturing raw, unfiltered inspiration. His Boricua roots pulse through his sound, infusing his music with an unmistakable energy that speaks to his heritage.
The episode explores Zonk's multifaceted career, from his energetic beginnings as a hype man for rapper Denny Lanez to his fearless experimentation across genres like spoken-word, rap, and reggaeton. He proudly introduces "Raeggeton" (Rage Reggaeton), a fiery subgenre he created, and opens up about the challenges of chasing his artistic dreams while navigating limited resources.
Zonk's reflections on personal growth, creative collaborations, and his aspirations to have worked with legends like Willie Colón are nothing short of inspiring. With insights into his latest project, 'Ya Me Canse Pero No Me Quite', this episode is an exhilarating deep dive into the power of culture, music, and relentless passion.
