Welcome to Simply Talk, a show brought to you by Simply Creative.
On today's episode we are joined by NYC base trumpet player Sal Arena and the one and only, King Soloman.
Originally born and raised on the southside of Brooklyn, NY, King Soloman found a deep connection for music at a very young age. In Spring 2012, both Soloman and long time friend, Producer Tariq Allen, began to create catchy beats whilst recording at their high-school(Edward R. Murrow.)After leaving the “Brooklyn life” and moving to Miami, Soloman was put on a hiatus, leaving behind a lot of unfinished music. By the Summer of 2015, he stumbled upon the local music scene in South Florida, putting his passion back into overdrive. After years of hardwork and reconnecting with Tariq Allen, King Soloman was reborn. The King introduces us to his creation of a boy who grew up in Brooklyn, showcasing a past of defying the odds and rising up against challenges. King Soloman’s audience can relate to his music in multiple ways. Combining a rhythmic flow with witty lyrics to grab the listeners attention, along with a brand of authenticity, it’s no wonder why King Soloman has the recipe for success. After releasing his mixtape; NYC 2 MIA, back in September of 2019, The King has been working nonstop with no intention of slowing down. Singles such as “Hands of Time” & “I Need That” have helped contribute to over 500,000 Spotify streams and counting. Visually spectacular music videos are always a must, and when it comes to the music production, it’s top of the line. It’s clear that King Soloman is making his mark on the music world.
New York City bred Sal Arena has debuted his first musical works as a feature on “Everything 2020” by King Soloman. Sal’s career began with freelancing at the age of 18 in NYC; first as the headman of his own quartet, then as a player in many different bands of all cultures throughout NYC mainly focused around JAZZ music. Beginning in 2014 Sal studied music performance & music education at Brooklyn College while pursuing a career as a contractor in Brooklyn’s biggest contracting company Empire State Contractors. Freelancing & Construction Contracting is Sal’s day to day in the big apple.
