THE STORY ON ZAK1. WHEW! WHERE DO WE START....OK ZAK1 STARTED RAPPING EARLY IN HIGH SCHOOL AS A "HOBBY," THEN HOOKED UP LATER IN SCHOOL WITH A D.J. NAMED "SPEXX" AND WENT ON TO CREATE VARIOUS MIXTAPES TO BEGIN. AFTER A SPELL WHERE Z WAS IN AND OUT OF JAIL FOR VARIOUS CHARGES AND VIOLATIONS, HE FINALLY MAXED OUT AND HOOKED UP WITH THE "SHEDWELLAZ," ALSO FROM REDWOOD CITY. THEY WENT ON TO DO SHOWS IN VARIOUS LOCATIONS IN THE BAY AREA FROM BERKLEY, OAKLAND, SAN FRANCISCO AND MORE. AFTER BEING FEATURED HEAVILY ON TWO DIFFERENT ALBUMS, (NOT INCLUDING TWO VINYL RELEASES, ONE ALSO WITH A GROUP CALLED "USF" OR THE UNSTOPPABLE FORCE)HE WENT ON TO "EXPAND HIS MUSICAL HORIZONS" WITH ANOTHER M.C., BY THE NAME OF "FLAUNT JUAN KANOBE." KANOBE AND ZAK1 GOT SERIOUS AND STARTED CUTTING A DEMO CALLED "THE DEAD FOREST COMPILATION," AN IDEA OF JUANS. IN 1999, JUST AFTER ZAK1S FIRST CHILD, ZAK2 WAS BORN, JUAN AND ANOTHER FRIEND OF ZAK1S NAMED CARLOS RODRIGUEZ WERE KILLED IN A TRAGIC CAR ACCIDENT. IT WAS A DEVASTATING BLOW TO ZAK1S EVERYDAY LIFE, NONE THE LESS THE PROJECT CARRIED ON AND HELPED TO DEVELOP A GROUP, NAMED THE "HURTFUL CIRCLE," NAMED BY KANOBE HIMSELF AFTER THE CUL-DE-SAC WHERE HE LAST LIVED AND THE GROUP RECORDED. THE GROUP CONSISTED OF ABOUT 8 MEMBERS, AND EVENTUALLY SPLIT INTO VARIOUS OTHER GROUPS. ZAK1, HIS BROTHER INCOGNITO GINO, MR. NACHO, AND D.J. TOP NACH WENT ON TO FORM THE "HEAD HONCHOZ" AND "HEAD HONCHOZ ENTERTAINMENT." THEY RELEASED THE C.D. "RUNNIN DA SHOW" IN THE EARLY 2000'S AND GAINED MUCH UNDERGROUND RECOGNITION IN THE BAY AREA AND OTHER PLACES. ZAK1 THEN WENT ON TO RELEASE HIS FIRST SOLO C.D., "SHORTSTOPPN," FEAT. THE LATE GREAT MAC DRE, (R.I.P.) AND DID SHOWS FROM THE BAY AREA TO MEXICO WITH PEOPLE SUCH AS KEEK THE SNEAK, THE FRONTLINE, MAC DRE, TURF TALK AND MANY MORE TO HELP PROMOTE. HE ALSO HAS RELEASED TWO MIXTAPES, "SPITTAZ" AND "STARVIN," AND HAS BEEN FEATURED ON OVER 200 SONGS, (DEM HOODSTARZ MIXTAPE VOL.1, 14 CALIBERS "HOME SWEET HOME, MAC EL'S "GLITCH IN THE GAME," AND J.B. THE ORIGINAL'S "IS THAT U?" TO NAME JUST A FEW) AND VARIOUS COMPILATIONS, ETC. WITH A C.D. NAMED "SOPHMORE SLUMP" ON THE WAY, PLUS THE "REAL. LIFE. SOPRANO." MIXTAPES VOLUMES 1-7 IN THE WORKS, THERE IS NO END IN SIGHT. YOU REALLY NEED TO CHECK THIS DUDE OUT. NUFF SAID.
