Original Soul is a man blessed with a gift to reach into your heart and enlighten your mind with his realism and insight.  In a watered-down era of rap music, Original Soul stands out with his lyrical skills and fearless approach to topics rarely discussed by the majority of artists considered "successful".  His versatility is unparalleled, easily transitioning between rap and song with comparisons to D'Angelo and Mos Def, although he lists names like KRS-One, Guru, Talib Kweli, The Roots, and Common when asked of his influences. Some of Original Soul's most popular songs are built around topics that are mostly ignored by today's artists. Original Soul is a native of Dallas Texas and has long worked with local artists on many levels, including his team of musicians on his label, M4g Entertainment. He has earned several awards to his credit, including Best Male Hip Hop Artist in 2020 by The Dallas Weekly, and a 3 time award winner for Underground's Most Wanted by Villa Koola Radio.
