A lot of urban stations are jumping on the song to help spread the message. The song is the second most added song at radio behind Pharell Williams’ “Happy.” New York’s power urban station WBLS has added it to its Quiet Storm rotation. Other stations that have added the song recently include WDAS (Philadelphia), WWIN (Baltimore), WTUG (Birmingham), KOKY (Little Rock), WIMX (Toledo), KISX (Tyler, TX), KDKS (Shreveport), WAGH (Columbus), WKZJ (Columbus) and WMPZ (Chattanooga).
The soulful song anchors Cortez’ forthcoming 13-track CD “Reloaded: Deluxe Edition” (World Wide Music, Inc.) that will be released April 1, 2014. “Zacardi is the best singer in America today,” says Douglas who discovered Cortez over a decade ago. “I’ve been grooming him like I groomed James Fortune and Earnest Pugh. I have no doubt that he will be one of the biggest artists the gospel world has ever seen.” The 28-year old rising star first sang with his family, The Cortez Singers, as a child. He first gained notice as the lead on James Fortune & FIYA’s 2008 breakthrough hit “The Blood” and their subsequent #1 smash, “I Believe.” He’s as well known for his intricate vocal gymnastics and fiery hoops as for his smooth tone. He can sing it all, from gutbucket blues to polished pieces. For more information, visit www.mrkerrydouglas.com or www.zacardicortez.com.
