Minister Prophet Deron Cozart Sr is a talented young man that knew for a long time that the entertainment world had to be apart of his life. At the tender age of 3 Deron started singing in the church choir at the St. James Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev Henry C. Jones. Deron played many roles in the church, he was the choir director for almost all of the choirs. Deron also severed as a musician for the church and one of the main lead vocalist for the church. Deron knew that he was gifted, talented and anointed by God early. As Deron got older he knew that there was more outside of the four wall of the church. So Deron set sail and began to search for other things to do for God. At the age of 10 Deron started singing with the Wings Of Inspirations under the leadership of Robert Mumphard. Deron was able to record with the “Wings” and Barbara Monagan. That recording lead him to bigger and better things. By the age of 13 Deron had teamed up with his cousin the renowned Evangelist Garnelle Hubbard- Spearman where he began to accelerate rapidly. With Garnelle Deron was able to record with her on her debut project entitled “I Gotta Tell It” with such hit songs as “Been Good”, and “Steps Right In” on Tyscot Records. Later, Deron sung on “So You Would Know” another project with such Artist as Angela Spivey, Lamar Campbell, Albertina Walker, and Willie Neal Johnson just to name a few on the GMWA Radio Angels.

It was during this time when Deron began to try acting. Deron decided to do a his first debut Gospel Stage Play where he was the lead male in the play. Deron enjoyed acting so much to he later teamed up with Dr. Willie D Brown and the WDB Productions. With this company Deron stared in more than 3 stage plays. He has toured over 70 cities with these plays. Granted Deron was doing plays he didn’t allow that to stop him from touring and recording music. Deron has had the opportunity to share the stage with many of today’s Great Gospel Artist. People such as Kirk Franklin, John P Kee, Dottie Peoples, Yolanda Adams, Lemmie Battles, Kurt Carr, my family The Canton Spirituals, and many more. Deron had the honor and privilege to travel with Dr. Bobby Jones, my cousin Garnelle Hubbard-Spearman and more.

Deron was living a very busy life by this time. Deron was hosting a Radio Show called More Than Conquers on KETZ 690 AM with his cousin Garnelle. Deron has become Nationally known. Deron is a member of several organizations dealing with the Gospel Industry even until this day. He is a member of the St. Louis/East St. Louis Gospel Announcers Guild, The Gospel Music Workshop Of America, SAGMA (Stellar Awards), Young Ministers Alliance. Deron is also a current member of Dr. Bobby Jones and the Nashville Super Choir from B.E.T. Dr. Bobby Jones Gospel. When Deron is not out singing with Dr. Bobby Jones and the Nashville super Choir he is somewhere preaching the word of God. He can be found somewhere around the country doing Revivals, Workshops, Conference, Youth Rally, and much more.

Deron is the proud parent of his son DJ who is 4 and his daughter Mani who is 2. Deron is a current and active Associate Minister and Youth Leader at the Gateway Area Bible Fellowship Apostolic Church under the leadership of Dad the one and only Dr. Levi R King Sr. I am also a member of the Gateway Area Restoration Choir under the leadership of my brother Levi "Too" King. God has been very good to me in during my time in the ministry. But one thing I have learned is it is not about me it is all about God. Therefore I remain humbled and prayed up. I am also now back in school completing me studies in Mortuary Science. So now I am a Father, Minister, Singer, Musician, Actor, and Gospel Comedian. God IS AWESOME.
