Saul Williams Biography

Williams is the author of the poetry collection She, The Seventh Octave and his most recent, Chorus: A Literary Mixtape. He was most recently the star of Holler If Ya Hear Me, the first hip-hop musical in Broadway history, a non-biographical narrative employing Tupac Shakur's music and lyrics. Readers may take a tour of the development of hip-hop through his book The Dead Emcee Scrolls: The Forgotten Teachings of Hip-Hop. After four years of living overseas, he signed a new book contract with MTV Books, where he will compose poetry in the style of Walt Whitman and Allen Ginsberg's "America" poems about his impressions of America. His works have been published in several anthologies and magazines, including Catch the Fire and The New York Times. In addition, he was featured in Alain Gomis' TEY in 2013. As a result, he became the first African-American to win Best Actor at the oldest and most prominent film festival in Africa, FESPACO. The film was also named Best Film. Rick Rubin, a famed rock/hip-hop producer, created his musical debut, Amethyst Rock Star, which won several awards, including Album of the Year from The Times of London. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails produced and supported Williams' third album, The Inevitable Rise and Fall of Niggy Tardust, released in November 2007. He released Volcanic Rock in November 2011, which included the emotional, beat-driven song "Explain My Heart." This song was used in an Adidas Smart Soccer ad and, more recently, in the Williams-starring Senegalese director Alain Gomis' movie Aujourd'hui. The movie, which centers on the final 24 hours of Williams' life, had its world premiere in February 2012 at the Berlin Film Festival. He has agreed to a deal with Fader for the 2015 release of a new Martyr Loser King album. The album's music serves as the score for the musical of the same name that Williams is creating and will have its world debut in New York simultaneously. In addition, Williams has offered his talents to the pro-peace movement Not in Our Name. Millions of people worldwide who wanted to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan used his draught of their Pledge of Resistance as a manifesto. Williams has also been the featured performer at the sixth annual MTN Bushfire Festival of the Arts, a three-day festival of music, theatre, visual arts, cinema, and multiculturalism in Swaziland that donates all net earnings to the country's orphans affected by AIDS. Williams has presented his findings at around 100 colleges and institutions domestically and internationally. He is the youngest poet in the country whose works are included in the curricula of several high schools and institutions around the nation. He has performed, traveled, and given lectures all over the world. Williams urges people to respect the art of self-expression since she is creative. He demonstrates how his enhanced experience has driven his knowledge of love, compassion, and humanity by sharing personal victories and setbacks.
