Soullow from Keyshia Cole Show on Sonny Mac World

Shelby Lowery aka Soullow was born in Chicago, ILL, And into the world came a passion for music. Starting off his career in the late 90’s with a group known as Cold Blue, he became familiar with writing rhymes. After years off performing and taking opportunities with mixtapes, the group split up. After moving to Flint, Michigan this gave Shelby a great chance to explore different styles of music and further perfect his craft. As a child he had the great opportunity to personally learn music from Ready for the World as well as be influenced by the great MC’s on streets of Flint, including those who would go on to become the greats of today’s music industry. (MC Breed, Dayton Family). In 2000 a tragedy almost ended his life, when he was gun downed by an assailant, taking over 9 bullets throughout the body. The doctors said he wouldn’t live, and if by some strange miracle he definitely would never walk or speak again. Miraculously he recovered completely. Shelby would go on to Miami, FL with Bobby Russell (RUSS) for rehabilitation and there he found himself and his voice in the rap game, he then learned of the entertainment opportunities in the city of Atlanta.. After arriving in the city he would embark on forming a group later to be known as 50 States Republic. Under his direction as they would go on to perform at various famed night clubs such as the Peacock, Pool Palace, & many more. 40,000 mixed tapes later and uncountable performances that reminded him of being on stage with MC Breed, Tupac, and E40 when he was young, brings us to a buzz that has stretched as far as Def Jam, Warner Music Group, Interscope and countless others.
