Saul Williams has been breaking ground since his debut album Amethyst Rock Star in 2001, executive produced by Rick Rubin. After gaining global fame for his poetry and writings at the turn of the century, Williams has performed in over 30 countries and read in over 300 universities, with invitations that have spanned from the White House, the Sydney Opera House, Lincoln Center, The Louvre, The Getty Center, Queen Elizabeth Hall, to countless, villages, townships, community centers, and prisons across the world. The Newburgh, New York native gained a BA from Morehouse and an MFA from Tisch, and has gone on to record with Nine Inch Nails and Allen Ginsberg, as well as countless film roles and television appearances.

Written and recorded between Senegal, Reunion Island, Paris, Haiti, and New Orleans and New York, Martyr Loser King is a new multimedia project that engages the digital dialogue between the 1st and 3rd worlds, and the global street sounds that yoke the two. "In Senegal, I was buying iPhones for $20, Beats for $10, because they get all the influx from China, with no regulation," Williams explains. "So everyone's online. Everyone’s high tech." He sights Beyonce, Fredo Santana, and Haitian field recordings as musical inspirations for his self-produced 6th album, straining trap hi-hats and mbira strokes together for a nuanced, entirely original sound. "I'm just letting you know what I'm reading and seeing while I'm writing. When I'm writing, the music leads."
