Multi-talented comedian, rapper, illustrator, writer, and actor Zack Fox will bring his DJ tour to The Fillmore this week. The Atlanta multi-hyphenate, who initially built a fan base through Twitter, gained further recognition as an artist by illustrating the album sleeve for Thundercat’s third studio album, Drunk, and acting in as well as co-writing the Flying Lotus-directed horror-comedy film Kuso in 2017.
As a rapper, Fox released his debut single, “Square Up,” in 2017, followed by the viral hit “Jesus Is the One (I Got Depression)” in 2019, both produced by Kenny Beats. The latter was originally recorded on The Cave, a YouTube series hosted by Beats. The song became wildly popular for its absurd comedic elements and candid social commentary on mental health. Fox released his debut album, Shut the Fuck Up Talking to Me, in 2021 and also plays the role of Tariq in the Primetime Emmy Award-winning ABC series Abbott Elementary.
As a DJ, Fox has performed on multiple YouTube channels, including Boiler Room, Elevator Music, Black House Radio, and Pangea Sound, amassing millions of views and listens. He’ll be spinning a mix of house, rap, jungle, R&B, and techno, according to his tour flier.
