Cedric Ballard Readies Us For "The Journey"

Cedric Ballard, a dynamic supernova in the realm of music and ministry, has crafted a unique worship driven presentation that has endeared him in the hearts of audiences for over two decades.
Born and raised in the rich tapestry of church life, Cedric's journey seamlessly intertwines his roles as a singer, songwriter, worship leader, minister, and workshop facilitator. Today he shares The Journey with the world in his debut EP for Blacksmoke Music.
Cedric's life has been an offering (Romans 12:1) deeply rooted in faith. Faced with the inevitable choice within the church community - to sing or preach - he chose both. His talent blossomed, leading him to record and travel with the group Damascus. However, responding to the guiding of the Holy Spirit, Cedric embarked on a solo career marked by milestones.
The year 2015 saw the release of the critically acclaimed album Transparency, a testament to Cedric's unwavering commitment to clearly share his journey of faith. Hits such as My Praise Belongs To You, They That Wait, and a soulful rendition of the classic Agnus Dei (Holy) resonated deeply with audiences, affirming the divine connection within his music.
Cedric Ballard has shared the stage with many of gospel's greatest legends and some R&B royalty such as Albertina Walker, Kirk Franklin, The Clark Sisters, Beyoncé Knowles, Kurt Carr, V. Michael McKay, Yolanda Adams, Donnie McClurkin and many more. His performance at President Obama's Chicago church was matched with praise to God and a rousing ovation for the gift.
As Cedric looks back on his remarkable journey, he echoes the sentiment of the hymn writer, affirming that he's emerged through "many dangers, toils, and snares" by God's grace. With an unyielding spirit and an acceptance of the divine assignment, Cedric Ballard stands ready for the next chapter, committed to using music as a vessel to inspire, uplift, and illuminate the path of faith for all who listen. "Blessing Me" is making the rounds at radio while Cedric hits the circuit for promotion dates.
