Arcuri released his debut single "Cruel" immediately after. The song peaked at number 89 selling 1, 458 in its first week, becoming the show's worst perform winners single to date. Arcuri's debut album Zenith was released on 29 July 2016 and peaked at number 5 on the ARIA Charts. In November, Arcuri talked about "Cruel" and its lack of success to River 949: “I love the song and it sounds so good acoustically. But I sort of had a feeling it wasn't going to do too well because I guess people on the show connected with me for certain songs and I was a ballad guy, and then I come out with this song which is a bit different. People would have connected more with a ballad but that's what I'm doing now anyway, I'm coming out with that. And that was the right way it was meant to happen.” Arcuri commenced his first national tour across Australia in November 2016.

In May 2017, Arcuri released "If They Only Knew". It's a song Arcuri co-wrote saying “When you feel heartbreak for the very first time, it’s the most extreme emotion, other than being in love. I can’t explain how it makes me feel that I’ve written it and hopefully people will connect to it the way I have.”
