DJ Big X in the studio with Zaytoven as they focus on the upcoming project with DJ Funky “ZAYFUNK”

Don’t get it twisted — Big X is kicking the year off exactly how it’s supposed to be done. No noise, no theatrics, just work. Linking up in the studio with DJ Funky and Zaytoven, the foundation is being laid for what’s shaping up to be a special project: “Zayfunk.”

This isn’t a random collaboration. This is Atlanta lineage in real time. When you put Funky’s musical instincts, Zaytoven’s unmistakable sound, and Big X’s ear for culture in the same room, the result is intentional, soulful, and rooted in legacy. This is about honoring where the sound came from while pushing it forward — not chasing trends, not forcing moments.

Early sessions already feel focused, creative, and locked in. You can hear the history in the room, but you can also feel the hunger to create something new. “Zayfunk” isn’t about hype — it’s about chemistry, respect, and execution.

Atlanta music doesn’t restart every year — it reloads. And this is how you do it right.
