Long before Zack Fox was making appearances on the scene in “Abbott Elementary”, throwing music and accumulating millions of views on his DJ sets that induce sweat, was better known for his jokes on Twitter.
Fox, a graphic artist and master of ceremonies for the independent seal based in Atlanta, Hearfful Records at that time, was publishing absurdly fun tweets under the alias “BootyMath”, raising tens of thousands of followers. His undeniable presence in social networks and his comic skills are what finally took him to Los Angeles in 2017 when the filmmaker, artist and producer Flying Lotus took advantage of it to co-written and star in his comedy of horror body-Forro “Kuso”.
“Then I got stuck and then married,” says Fox, who married Mayumi “Kat” Fox, a DJ and a businessman who launched the popular Aapi Market Aapi market. Fortunately, he is enjoying living in Los Angeles, who, according to him, has a similar charm of southern hospitality as its hometown of Atlanta.
Fox's last adventure? Starring “Lurker” by the writer and director Alex Russell, an exciting psychological thriller that explores the insidious parasocial bond between a rising pop star and an apparently tame retail employee, which comes out in theaters on Friday.
He is also preparing to unleash his “concept of creative sandbox” called Uway, which organizes his first Rave in collaboration with the record label based in Los Angeles and Jazz Community Minaret on September 6 in New York.
Fox takes us for his highly caffeinated Sunday in Los Angeles, which implies wasting time of time in a Yemeni coffee, taking their Kiwi and Pepper dogs to walk in the state recreation area of Kenneth Hahn and dinner in a Thai place based on plants with all her friends.
This interview has been slightly edited by length and clarity.
10 am: Doomscroll in Tiktok
I will be generous with myself and I will say that I could get up at 10 in the morning, even if I say that I am going to get up at 9 in the morning, you know that I am going to do Tiktok's ingestion at the top of the day, so we are going to turn it on with 30 to 60 minutes of Solo Doomscrolroll.
10:30 AM: A CALISTENIA TRAINING AT HOME
We have a third room in the cradle where we maintain training teams, so I have become a calisthenics fan. Never before was it, but something to have it at home makes me want to do that more. So I'm really getting into pull-ups and sauces. I am giving myself a little fear in the falls, and if you are a fan of me, you know that Shemar Moore is my muse, so I am trying to do what I can in life to look like this. So on Sunday, it's my free day, I'm going to enter there [and] Get that job.
11:30 am: Have a guilty and delicious breakfast
Usually, at that time, Kat is already awake and is a Filipina, so he will start preparing food that is existentially required to eat or the relationship will become bad. All I know is that I just have to eat it if I'm hungry or not, so I guess we will call it a blame travel breakfast [laughs]. A guilty breakfast that has a successful rate of 100% of being delicious. That is the great compensation. Once he made this tasty flavor with rice, eggs, green onions and other things. He put the ingredients and sweet and tasty eggs in the gofres manufacturer. Honestly sounds super illegal, as a way you summon a troll or something.
12 pm: Kiwi and pepper walk
We would probably take our dogs by the neighborhood. We like to give Kiwi and pap your red carpet at least twice a day. We have a very social dog network here.
2 PM: Lose the notion of time in Jalsah
After that, I'm probably doing the thing I pretend that I don't have a caffeine addiction, but really, I really want to go to coffee and have multiple drinks with caffeine. I have been going to this Yemeni coffee that the center called Jalsa. I am usually going there because I have a couple of other caffeine creaks in my social group and we are there. I love it because it feels like a small portion of Yemen as if Yemení Jazz and they have the right smells, the correct atmosphere [and] The right people. Do you know that you go to a bar and ask for a beer jug that you are only going to have all day? You can get this type of hot coffee jug for the table and pour it for yourself. It has a cardamom and coffee has stone fruit notes and is sweet. I did not realize that Yemenis make coffee in the way in which black mothers make coffee where it is strong but very sweet. The caffeine has a time dilation so that it can be hours in which I am there or 30 minutes. Who knows?
4 pm: Ponte fresh in Nepenthes
Because I am in the center and if I am with friends, then we could have to go fresh. We may have to assume it Nepenthes And get a couple of really expensive socks that we are going to lose immediately. Maybe a couple of shorts or something that looks exactly to the other clothes I already have.
5 pm: takes dogs to another walk
Now that I have the clothing bag, we have to take it back home. Let's have to think where we are going [take] These dogs again because they are the show star. In this family, Kat is the main singer, Kiwi is on the keyboard, Pepper is the drummer and I am very far from the bass. Usually, if it is a regular day, I would say Kenneth Hahn Park It would be the place. Or we would go to Huntington Garden. It is an exit because once you are there, you say: “Why am I doing this every day?”
7 pm: plant–Dinner based on friends
We love going to this place called Salaya In the Thai city. It is Thai food based on plants. Most of it is on par with what you are going to get in a typical non -vegan Thai. Much of this is really to overcome the Thai places that I love because I am based on plants when I am with Kat, but when I am in the world, only as anything. I will eat a bald eagle if you fry it well [laughs].
9 PM: Go to the cinema
After that, we would probably go to watch a movie in ALAMO DRAFTHOUS either New Beverly [Cinema]. During the month of black history, the new Beverly made a double feature of “CB4” and “Do not be a threat to South Central while drinking your juice in the hood.” We had that b— crackin '. I brought to everyone I know.
11 pm: work in music
At this point, I will probably conclude the day working in music with friends. Maybe let's Pirate Studios Or we will go to the homemade study of a friend and make music. Honestly, I think that rhythms is a good way to conclude the day. It is very low pressure and I think it is good to solve the brain muscles a little before bedtime.
1 am: more caffeine to be able during the night
If we begin to make rhythms late, sometimes I like to reach a night coffee if things become too social. Sometimes we will hit M3 either Almost time In Koreatown. Approximately, we will sit on the fire.
8 am: a BPM rave with caffeine and bass
Drink coffee that took my week [laughs]. Everything is messy now. I'm missing calls. I'm missing email. I am panic at the meeting on Monday. I am walking like Nicolas Cage in “Leaving Las Vegas”. On this Sunday of caffeine, I'm going to sleep on Monday. I am a raver and I think that a group of three or more black people who speak with a substance involved qualifies as a delirium. It is a low BPM rave. It is about 40 BPM and there are no CDJ involved, but it is a delirium.
