Paul Wall

Paul Wall, born Paul Michael Slayton on March 11, 1981, in Houston, Texas, is a rapper and entrepreneur who became a prominent figure in the Southern rap scene in the early 2000s. Gaining fame for his distinctive voice and laid-back style, Paul Wall earned his stripes as a member of the rap group The Color Changin' Click and later gained widespread acclaim for his collaboration with fellow Houston rapper Chamillionaire on the album "Get Ya Mind Correct" in 2002.

Wall's solo career took off with his major label debut, "The Peoples Champ," in 2005, which featured the hit single "Sittin' Sidewayz." His follow-up album, "Get Money, Stay True," solidified his reputation in the industry. Beyond his musical endeavors, he is known for his business in custom jewelry—particularly grills (custom mouthpieces)—which made him a cultural icon in hip-hop fashion.
