Solomon Starr

Solomon Starr is a gifted speaker, lyricist/poet, scholar and music producer. Born and Raised in New York City. In 2004, Solomon co-founded Sanctify Entertainment, an urban music record label targeting youth for leadership development. The vision was to create conscious media for spiritual transformation. The mission has been to organize and help bring liberation to groups across the country aiming for social change by combining performing arts and social action. Although he has had the humble honor of performing before acts like The Roots, Kurtis Blow, Sean Price, Dead Prez, and Wu-Tang Clan, Solomon Starr finds no greater satisfaction than helping to transform people through the powerful gifts of word and music.
