Emerging in 2020 from Portland, OR, United States, ZAHSUN, founder of SPROUT GANG, blends edm, house, drum bass, dubstep, hip hop, rap, trap, boom bap, lofi hip hop, soul, singer songwriter, reggae, afrobeat, cinematic, experimental and comedy into a genre-defying sound.

ZAHSUN is a Hawai‘i-born, Portland-based DJ/MC and founder of Sprout Gang, a grassroots creative collective of artists, healers, and storytellers. Known for his jester hat, glowing smile, and conscious lyrics, ZAHSUN turns every set into a timeline-shifting journey — part dancefloor, part ceremony.

He blends cinematic beats, live vocals, and Aloha-rooted energy to activate remembrance in the crowd — helping people reconnect to their truth, their joy, and their rhythm.

Through his music and the unfolding story of the MANAFEST MULTiVERSE, ZAHSUN invites listeners into a mythic world where sound is sacred, laughter is medicine, and every beat is a message. Whether performing solo or with his collective, the mission stays the same: awaken the soul, raise the frequency, and remind the world — you’ve been asleep long enough.

What Motivates I&I
The magic of music is real and music is more than sound—it’s a universal language that connects people, tells stories, and moves the soul. Zah is driven by the magic of sound, the ability to blend influences and create something entirely new. Every performance is an opportunity to transport listeners into a different world, to bring people together through rhythm and energy. Everything happens for a reason, and music is the reason.

This ain’t just music.
This a call to rise.
