BiographyBorn and raised in Pacoima, California, David Ortiz grew up surrounded by music, soul, and a deep sense of purpose. His grandmother was a lead vocalist in a mariachi group and a Spanish solo artist—never one to pass up a chance to perform when mariachis were playing nearby. That passion for music runs in the family. David’s own journey began in the church, where he spent years singing in the choir, finding his voice and his foundation.
David lost his father at just four years old, a life-altering moment that deeply shaped the man he would become. That early loss gave him the drive to be the best father to his own children and poured emotional depth into the music he creates today. Influenced by the sounds of his childhood—long car rides filled with oldies and R&B—David gravitated toward soul-driven artists like Jon B, Avant, Luther Vandross, and R. Kelly. Over time, he developed a distinct style rooted in vulnerability, storytelling, and the kind of emotional connection that moves people. One of his most unforgettable moments came behind bars in L.A. County Jail, where fellow inmates recognized him for his song Hopeless Boy—a record that had helped many of them through personal struggles. David's collaboration with King Lil G introduced his sound to a wider audience, but it was his raw talent, emotional depth, and unique voice that captured the attention of Joyas Musicales / Silent Giant Entertainment. The label saw his potential—not just as an artist, but as a man with a powerful story—and committed to helping develop both. With thousands of streams and a growing fanbase, David Ortiz is carving out his lane with music that inspires, motivates, and uplifts. "David represents the heart of our label—raw soul, real stories, and timeless music. He’s not just an artist, he’s a voice for the people." — Julie, Joyas Musicales "I don’t make music to be famous—I make music to be felt.
