about
There are at least two artists that use the name Tall Paul. Taul Paul is an Anishinaabe rapper and emcee based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is a prolific producer and known in the underground and Indigenous circuits. He is also one half of the Indigenous hip-hop duo Point of Contact. To date, Tall Paul has released two solo projects for free digital download. Ahead of the Game, a weekly series in which he released a song every day the Minnesota Vikings played (during the 2012 NFL football season), and the Birthday Present EP, released on his birthday of this year, 4/21/13. Both projects can be found at tallpaul612.bandcamp.com, as well as soundcloud.com/tallpaul612 Taul Paul began his DJ'ing career in 1987 at the tender age of 16, playing for office parties at his dads nightclub Turnmills.
