Sol always felt like a low-key Haitian-American kid, who stayed true to his name and avoided the thirst trappings of fame even in the moments of critical acclaim. In the beginning there were some EPs that made the rounds, and when he had put in his 10,000 hours, it happened. He became No. 1 on the US iTunes hip-hop chart, No. 4 globally with the 2012 masterwork Yours Truly. His SoundCloud streams shot to eight figures, then poof... he dipped and left the industry executives going straight to voicemail. He had been awarded the Bonderman Fellowship and left the country so to travel the far reaches of civilization with nothing but a carry-on bag. Africa, India, South America, back home to Haiti. Sol’s field notes became the project Eyes Open. Sol followed that with another four-course musical meal: The Headspace Traveler, in 2016 which included a headlining 22-city U.S. tour. Before you could refresh your browser he was back in the Caribbean watching global football on satellite TVs. In 2019, came the full length album Soon Enough, and then during the pandemic Sol once again went against the grain by releasing his project SUPPLY PACK exclusively in the physical form.
Best Intimate Concert Ever! Definitely going to the next one and the one after that. Thank you Solzilla &Oblè Reed
This was an amazing show. The venue was really small, but never felt cramped. There was a house party vibe and the crowd was so energetic! Everyone was friendly and was there to just enjoy really great music. Brothers From Another killed it with their high energy, and although I didn't know any of their songs, I was dancing and singing their entire set. Sol was on another level the entire night. Played an extra long set with a double encore- it literally couldn't have been better. First thing I did when it was over was look to see if he was doing any more shows in the area!
The best concert I have ever been to! It was so much fun and I would definitely go again.
