ZAQ COLDLY BIO



A refreshing break from the normalcy that often plagues the airwaves, amid melodic tunes that compel you to halt in your tracks to investigate the culprit, illustrates the sound of Zaq Coldly. Zaq invites you on a rhythmic ride through his mind where you will uncover the pure genius that resides within the thoughts of a luminous artist who is never scared to let his art speak for itself. Best described as an element of his environment gripped by a surplus of genres beginning in his birthplace of Plainfield, New Jersey home of P-Funk and George Clinton, Zaq is able to concoct an elixir that is sure to heal, unite, inspire and entertain the hardest critic to the enthusiast seeking elevation. Whether he’s spitting lyrics, singing a verse or caressing his guitar with the unyielding precision, you will dangle on every syllable and note. Smashing the mundane sameness like a head on collision, mashing rock and roll and hip hop with rhythm and blues into a package that delivers honest talent, raw music and relevant themes that keep you coming back for dose after dose, you realize you are experiencing a pure artist who travels down a road that many are either afraid to venture or just unable to find.

Zaq spent his formative years as a close friend of the Outlaws, a group crafted by Tupac Shakur, and opening for groups such as De La Soul, The Roots, Erykah Badu, KRS-1, Terror Squad and Run-DMC. His respect for the game and his merciless grind would help propel him to new levels of creativity. Armed with a new platform to express his progressive New Genre music Zaq used the world as a vehicle to illuminate his raw fiery emotion and produce a rich layered sound. Zaq would go on to put roots down in Europe and rip shows with the likes of M.O.P, Busta Rhymes, Nas, Lil’ Wayne and the Coup. Zaq is a musician, producer, vocalist, lyricist, and writer who has penned songs for Sony BMG artist as well as Dead Prez. He recently added actor to his arsenal of talent flexing his ability as a live theater stage performer in sold out shows as well as the big screen, appearing in “Death by Night Club” from the creators of the 40 Year Old Virgin and Transformations which garnered awards from the San Francisco Film Festival as well as the New York Hip Hop Film Festival.

Don’t get it misconstrued, this enlightened and colorful entertainer has an expansive repertoire and displays versatility unparallel to others. While influences such as Prince keep you guessing along with his B.L.E.A.C.H B.L.A.Q (Beyond Life’s Expectations Always Changing How Black Lives Are Questioned) mantra, this burgeoning conscious, minister of music is ready to educate and inspire. Zaq’s mission is to keep them interested at all times and guessing, but let everyone know the power within and the depth of our creative roots with his soulful and heartfelt delivery. Zaq knows no boundaries and chooses to color outside of the margins of life. He doesn’t fit into the proverbial box that most are encompassed into, instead his spirit soars, his soul filters through the speakers and his music sets new principles for ingenuity. Catch Zaq breaking records, bouncing across radio dials, crossing genres and inspiring a new movement. An artist like Zaq Coldly hasn’t been seen so it would be a travesty to categorize his music and his style. The best way to comprehend is to just listen, embrace and embark on the journey that is know as “UGLY” and the leader of the pack, Mr. Zaq Coldly.
