Biographie
Paris is a San Francisco-based hip-hop artist, activist, writer, and owner of Guerrilla Funk Recordings and Filmworks, LLC. He has sold millions of records, with music reflecting revolutionary ideals of collective upward mobility and self-defense while delivering scathing critiques of America's racial history and social and political systems. His uncompromising stance on current affairs and biting social commentary have become his trademark, endearing him to legions of supporters who rightly feel messages of positivity are underrepresented in hip-hop.
His Guerrilla Funk imprint has released numerous projects, including Paris-written and produced material and contributions by Public Enemy, George Clinton, E-40, Boots Riley & The Coup, dead prez, Kam, The Eastsidaz, The Conscious Daughters, Spice 1, MC Ren (of NWA), WC, and Immortal Technique, among others. Paris' original material has been featured in various Hollywood movies, TV shows, video games, and streaming networks, and his writings have appeared in Vice Media, The Washington Post, and Medium, among other notable outlets.
