Throughout his childhood, Lorenzo Ferguson balanced his love for music and baseball. The Detroit-area native was drafted as an outfielder by the Toronto Blue Jays in 1996, rounds ahead of future MLB all-stars Orlando Hudson, Juan Pierre, and Barry Zito. Ferguson accepted a full-ride athletic scholarship to Western Kentucky, however, and earned a degree in graphic design. He began his recording career shortly thereafter with Ablyss (2001), the first of several instrumental releases. His profile increased the next few years as he issued albums such as Passion & Definition (2004), Freelance (2006), and the Asylum 7 collaboration Overdue Process (2009), as well as the covers EPs …Just Visiting, Zo! and Tigallo Love the ’80s, and …Just Visiting Too (2006-2009). All the while, Ferguson was earning a Master’s degree in special education and contributing to recordings from the likes of Slum Village, Platinum Pied Pipers, and Little Brother. During the latter half of the 2000s, Zo!’s deepest bond was made with the Foreign Exchange. The group’s Phonte had become a regular collaborator on …Just Visiting. Zo! then produced material for the Foreign Exchange’s Leave It All Behind and co-leader Nicolay’s City Lights, Vol. 2: Shibuya, and eventually became FE’s musical director. The second …Just Visiting EP was Zo!’s first release through Foreign Exchange Music and led to a triennial series of solo full-length projects. SunStorm (2010), ManMade (2013), SkyBreak (2016), and FourFront (2019) each featured a shifting cast of guest vocalists and songwriters, most commonly Phonte, Sy Smith, and frequent touring/performing partner Carmen Rodgers.
