Music career


Soul Khan began battle rapping in 2008 and retired in 2010. After retiring from battle rap, Soul Khan became outspoken about his regret over using language that many consider offensive to marginalized groups like the LGBT community and women. Since as early as 2012, he has expressed his remorse on social media. In January 2020, Soul Khan returned to battle rap for a one-time performance against Dizaster in the King of the Dot league. At the end of 2022, Soul Khan returned for another battle rap performance against A Ward on iBattleTV. Since then he has announced he will be participating in more battle rap events.
Soul Khan met his current group, The Brown Bag Allstars, while working at Fat Beats in New York City. In late 2010, Soul Khan released his free album Soul Like Khan. The following year, he started releasing his Love Supreme series, four EPs in dedication to John Coltrane's legendary album by the same name, A Love Supreme. The first EP, Acknowledgement was produced by DeeJay Element with an upbeat approach to help listeners feel "renewed." The second EP, Resolution, was produced by Marink. Pursuance EP, produced by Audible Doctor is the third and Psalm, produced by Abnormal completed the series. Soul Khan's song "Speeding Bullets" was also on the 2012 compilation album College Radio Day.
