ABOUT ZACARDI CORTEZ
One of the most talked about voices in gospel music belongs to Grammy Nominated, 3x Stellar and BMI Award-Winning artist Zacardi Cortez. Born in Houston, TX, Cortez hails from a singing family rooted in faith.
At the age of five he began singing in church and working in the Texas gospel circuit with his family, The Cortez Singers. At age 8, Pastor John P. Kee, adopted him as a spiritual son and began mentoring him. For a while, Cortez sang with Kee’s V.I.P. Mass Choir even singing a solo on the CD, Live at the Fellowship, in 2001. He later made guest appearances on recordings by Kurt Carr, Bishop Paul S. Morton and Pastor Gregg Patrick & the Bridge Project. During the early years of his career, Cortez’ big voice and spine-tingling vocal gymnastics distinguished James Fortune & FIYA’s radio smashes “Let Your Power Fall,” “I Believe” and “The Blood.”
Cortez’s current radio single “Work It Out For Me,” penned by Travis Malloy, rides the wave of his massive viral hit “Lord Do It Again” which has surpassed 35MIL streams. The current single comes from the May 9th ZetRoc Ent./BlackSmoke Music EP release of Ibhar: He That Is Chosen (Chap. 1). Taking the lead again on production, Zacardi crafts a masterful body of work, including features by Jekalyn Carr, Chrystal Rucker, Jason Nelson and Jonathan Nelson.
Zacardi Cortez has had four #1 Billboard Gospel Airplay singles; most recently “Lord Do It Again;” a song he penned for his album Imprint. His 2019 #1 Billboard single “You Don’t Know,” is also written by Cortez joined by James Fortune, composed by Marcus Calyen and produced by AyRon Lewis. Zacardi had a prior 12 week run at #1 on the same chart for the song “God Held Me (Together).” Other Top 10 radio hits include “YDIA,” “1-On-1,” and “One More Time,” and “I Made It Out” with the latter two songs with his Mentor, Pastor John P. Kee.
Zacardi Cortez has enjoyed appearances on major platforms including The Stellar Awards and Black Music Honors, along with releasing three Top 10 albums, The Introduction (2012), Reloaded (2014), Imprint: Live in Memphis (2022).
