What happened to Rage Against the Machine’s lead singer?

Zack de la Rocha, the lead singer of the alternative rock band Rage Against the Machine, announced his departure from the group in October 2000. Later he reunited with the band’s other members for a series of concert tours, including a protest concert in close proximity to the Republican National Convention in 2008. At the beginning of a world tour that kicked off in 2022, de la Rocha injured his leg while performing with the band onstage. Eventually, Rage Against the Machine cancelled the rest of its tour dates, and the group disbanded in 2024.
