Meet Z Truth: Real, Raw, and Ready to Be Heard
Zachary Scott Cooper, better known as Z Truth, isn’t your average rapper — and he doesn’t try to be. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, his music is a bold blend of truth-telling, humor, and high energy, rooted in personal experience and driven by authenticity.
Z Truth didn’t set out to be a singer — his voice found its home in the rhythm of rap. His gift lies in transforming everyday moments into something larger than life, making them relatable across moods and mindsets. His signature style? A mix of ratchet, comical, and brutally honest storytelling that connects with listeners and keeps them coming back for more.
Raised as a ward of the state with no ties to his biological family, Z Truth grew up in group homes, facing obstacles most people will never know. But rather than let his past define him, he turned it into fuel for his art. Influenced by legendary voices like 2Pac, he brings raw emotion and unapologetic truth to every track.
Controversial yet compelling, his song “Queen” featuring Twin Rossy sparked important conversations, especially within the LGBTQ+ community — and Z Truth hasn’t shied away from clearing up misconceptions and standing by his intent to spark dialogue and reflection.
When he’s not in the studio, Z Truth wears many hats: he’s the owner of a cleaning business and works within the Chicago Public Schools system. Through it all, he stays grounded and focused on creating music that matters.
Up next: his newest single, “On Top,” a track that blends nostalgic soul with modern hip-hop vibes. Sampling Lenny Williams, it’s all about joy, confidence, and the feeling of rising above — something Z Truth knows all about.
Whether you’re here for the laughs, the lyrics, or the life lessons, one thing’s certain: Z Truth brings the experience.
