Biography

Rapper “Corey Paul” who is a Houston native through and through, was raised in South Park—a neighborhood where more than 30% of the residents are high school dropouts. Raised by a strong mother and his stepfather, who eventually became a crack cocaine addict, Corey has no shortage of content to rap about. At the age of six his father beat and burned his mother with an iron, and by the age of eight he witnessed his mother shoot his father in self-defense. When Corey was nine his father unfortunately hung himself in an attic after a long battle with addiction. As a teenager Corey embraced street culture and Houston's “chopped and screwed” music scene. Eventually he realized that even if he gained all of it, it wouldn’t change the pain, poverty or hopelessness that his family and neighborhood dealt with on a daily basis. It was at this moment Corey decided to trust God and in 2010 he started “Frontline Media Group”. In the summer of 2013 he independently released his debut album, “Grace Love Mercy”, which debuted at #39 on the Gospel Billboard Charts. On December 18th, 2015 he released his sophomore album entitled “Today, Tomorrow, Forever”, which peaked at #11 on the iTunes Rap/Hip-Hop chart and ranked #16 on the Billboard “Heatseeker” chart.
