The raw underground heat meets crossover soul.
On You Don’t Want War, Solomon Childs — the Staten Island mic veteran formerly known as Killa Bamz and one of the most prolific Wu-Tang affiliates — delivers a powerful blend of street anthems, mixtape-style flips, and heartfelt storytelling. This project captures Solomon at full force: gritty, hungry, and unfiltered, while also showcasing his surprising melodic side.
A unique highlight of the album is its eclectic roster of guest features, blending the rawness of Shaolin with the voices of R&B and pop heavyweights. Across the tracklist, Solomon trades energy with Keyshia Cole, Chris Brown, Alicia Keys, Jordin Sparks, and even RZA, bringing together two worlds — the underground grind and mainstream soul — in a way only he can.
Musically, the album moves between street-level grit, introspective prayers, relationship drama, and cinematic hood tales. Fan favorites like “You Don’t Want War,” “Respect,” “Alone in These Streets,” and “See Me in Blood” showcase Solomon’s trademark raspy voice and uncompromising flow, while tracks like “Fallin’ Out of Love” and “Never See Me Again” tap into his emotional depth.
This is Solomon Childs at his most versatile — half warrior, half romantic, always real.
