about
Soultru - is a hip-hop/soul crooner based out of the Midwest calling the Quad Cities home for 30 years. As a child and teenager, Soultru performed in church and school choir. He also showed an interest in the written word in the form of poetry. It didn't take long for the young man to combine his love for singing with his poetic skills, and he began to compose original songs. Pulling in his influence from gospel music and listening to Fred Hammond, and Smokie Norful along the way of a sheltered childhood crippled his love for new genres. So as time passed he found artists such as Gavin Degraw (who he credits as his biggest vocal influence) Brian McKnight, Anthony Hamilton and Kanye West who led him to find John Legend. He has officially released two projects to date, the 2015 release “Backpack the EP” and the 2017 release “Modest Ego”. Through friends recently he's been getting more into the indie side of hip-hop a bit more and less of the mainstream. with newer influences coming from artists such as the FAKE FOUR INC. roster, Jacob Banks, Son Little, and Allen Stone. Soultru has had the great fortune to open for and share the stage with numerous nationally known acts including: Artists such as Ceschi Ramos, Kweku Collins, Rittz, Magic City Hippies, Michigan Rattlers and many more. Combining his poetic and lyrical talents with a soulful voice, Soultru has forged his own unique sound. Soultru credits a wide range of influences, including Gavin Degraw, John Legend, Yelawo
