Big Zach of Kanser’s second solo album, New Crayons was produced entirely by Big Jess of Unknown Prophets.So you know it’s bound to be another fine Twin Cities Hip Hop release from these two stalwart artists.

Big Zach has also just self-published his autobiography of sorts, titled, “Headspins, Headshots & History: Growing Up in Twin Cities Hip-Hop.” The 277-page book is at once a semi-subjective overview of the history and characters here, and an ultra-personal account of Combs’ own involvement in the scene and of his youth in south Minneapolis (here’s hoping no cops or possible future employers read this thing). It also includes his ranking of the 25 best rappers in the scene (which I won’t spoil, except to say Zach himself is pretty high up on the list).
