Positive music is hard to come by these days in hip-hop. Yet, throughout Souls Of Liberty’s poised visuals for “Future Millionaires,” the dedicated duo from St. Louis fully display the inspiring side of the genre that’s been almost completely replaced by materialism. From the optimistic self-reinforcement in their well-delivered lyrics to the grind-inspired content of the video, these two deliver a track that’s genuinely refreshing in content and doesn’t carry the cheesiness of many songs in this lane.
Look for more honest to goodness raps from these two budding MCs when their 10,000 Hours album in March. - TheSmokingSection.com (UPROXX Media Network)
The Souls of Liberty duo push forward their new mix, "10,000 Hours."
They say it takes 10,000 hours of dedication to something before you truly master it. Well, Souls Of Liberty, the affable Hip-Hop duo from St. Louis, are testing the fruits of their labor with their fantastic brand new mix, 10,000 Hours.
We're proud to see Souls of Liberty go so far. The duo was previously featured on HNHH as Heatseekers back in August of last year. They have since honed their already considerable talent resulting in a sound that's as sharp as ever and deliver their deepest, most meaningful content yet.
Don't let them pass you by. Also, check out the track that landed them on Heatseekers, called "Success." - HotNewHipHop.com
Souls of Liberty‘s Life Music Series debut was last year. They were invited to come back to perform at MU this time as the headliners.
Freshman Christopher Herron said he heard about the Life Music Series from a friend. He had never heard of Souls of Liberty before Friday night.
“I liked them,” Herron said. “They definitely kept me interested (in the event).”
Life Music Series played a key role in the BCC’s Black Culture Awareness Week. - The Maneater
The new album represents their goal to become outstandingly successful in the hip-hop community. According to Gladwell’s book, an outlier is “a scientific term to describe things or phenomena that lie outside normal experience.”
Escobar and Donta’s goal is to become outliers in rap. “We just took our lives and documented them,” Donta says. “I’m from a pretty tough area, growing up in north St. Louis,” he says. The artists hope to convey to their audience that their circumstances don’t define them but rather make them stronger. - Vox Magazine

Recently Souls of Liberty opened up for Wale and we gave you From North STL To NYC. But what’s better to hear about the “Success” of the Souls than hear it from them?

The track produced by Klevah! is smooth and infectious that will take through a journey experienced by your ears and eyes. Check out both the documentary and song below." - NeoClef.com
