About Me

I'm an artist from everywhere and nowhere and that will never change. No matter where I go, no matter where my life takes me, I will always be BlackSoultan; I will always be an artist. As for my music and my strides in the game, I have done a lot of recording in the past few years and a few notable collabos including CP, Flawliss, Skribble Jam Champion NoCanDo, the west coast Legend Aceyalone, Trenseta and up-and-coming superproducer Soleternity (Young Buck, Bone Crusher, Lil Scrapy,Bizzy Bone)... The first album (available for download on this site on my snocap store) was recorded innitially in the Bahamas with what is now known as Steriotypez Music. The album was completely redone with Soleternity in L.A. shortly thereafter due to contractual issues, though some of my hometown homegrown music survived, such as License Plates feat. Ovadose and Problematic. Recently, License Plates was prominently featured in the film "I'm Through With White Girls" which has been gaining recognition in film festivals worldwide such as the Hollywood Black Film Festival and the famed Cannes film festival in France. I've performed all over L.A. with the likes of Trenseta, Madam Brown, X-Clan, Slick Rick, Medusa and Flawliss Victory. At present, the next album is finna drop. The second album is called NUCLEAR WINTER and features even more production by -- you guessed it -- Soleternity! He is accompanied by some Project Blowed regulars like Mr. Dibiase (They Don't Move Me) and Maestroe the Madmonk (Beautiful), and Muling Productions (Final Sin). I'm making sure the album is on everyone's desk. I was going to shop it, but something even bigger is in the works (isn't it always?) STTS in the building.
Do I want to be an artist? I have no choice. Am I pursuing it? I wasn't, but as time went on and my shows and music went farther than I thought it ever would, I have no other choice but to put energy behind it. After a while, I realized my music is all I am.
Because I made my music all that I am
