Zach The Saint

Diether Zachary Tan, known as Zach The Saint, is a 20-year-old Filipino-Chinese rapper rooted in the underground emo-rap scene. Drawing inspiration from Juice WRLD, his sound blends melodic hooks with emotionally direct lyricism. Tan began releasing music in 2021, first appearing as a featured artist on Hello3itch’s single KSI Would Beat My A$$ (V1), which surpassed 2,000 streams within its first months. In 2022, he followed with a string of solo releases, gaining wider attention when G-SHOCK featuring Hello3itch and Lil Radio reached over 6,000 total streams by November 2024. Momentum grew in 2023 with Love Ain’t Real, built around a sample from RJ Pasin, which pushed Tan past his previous peak of 216 monthly listeners. In 2024, he released a four-part project series: I’M ALL ALONE ONCE AGAIN , DONE WITH LIFE!, INFATUATION!, and BACK TO MY ROOTS, with the latter expanding his catalog with returning collaborators like Lil Radio alongside new features, including Yuno Miles. His upcoming albums, “ONE BIG FIGHT” and “IS THIS JUST A DREAM?”, mark a shift in direction, leaning into a harsher and more aggressive take on melodic rap. The projects blend experimentation with familiarity, bringing together long-time collaborators and new voices as Tan pushes beyond his earlier sound.
