SaulPaul is a 3X GRAMMY Nominated Musician with a Message. Part rapper/part singer-songwriter, SaulPaul is an entertaining artist who blends his voice, his guitar, and his loop pedal to create a live show that is nothing less than an experience. Praised as a pioneer of Acoustic Hip Hop, SaulPaul has showcased at ACL, SXSW, the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts and been featured on America’s Got Talent. SaulPaul’s inspiring backstory of transitioning from tragedy to triumph has been told on screen via the documentary Tower to Tower and via his memoir Be The Change as well as his 3 popular TEDx Talks.

In addition to mentions from NPR and Billboard, The New York Times wrote, "This is infectious Hip Hop that the whole family can enjoy." SaulPaul has had 2 #1 Songs on Sirius XM as well as a Top 5 & Top 15 album on iTunes.

Most recently he launched CHANGE Water, an alkaline water company that is making the world a better place. With each case of water sold, Change Water gives back to the local community where it was sold. To date, 100,000 students in 32 States across the US have benefited. Whether via art, entrepreneurship or community service, SaulPaul is committed to #BeTheChange.
