4REAL is a series of half-hour television shows that take celebrity guests on adventures around the world to connect with young leaders who, under extreme circumstances, are affecting real change. These are the real heroes of our time.
4REAL is an entertaining, fast paced, adventure series that allows viewers to learn about some of the most pressing issues of our time, but most importantly they tune into some of the most inspiring attitudes and initiatives addressing them.
Cast for season 1 include Cameron Diaz, Mos Def, Joaquin Phoenix, Eva Mendes, Casey Affleck and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Sol is the host and co-creator of the exciting new series 4REAL.
Both an artist and social entrepreneur, Sol is a native of Canada. Sol helped create 4REAL and its partner website, 4REAL.com, to utilize the power of media to educate, inspire and empower youth across the globe to take charge, get involved and make change.
"We are all artists and we all have a responsibility to do our best to make the world a better place," Sol says. "Through my success and experience in the music industry I began to realize the power I possessed in creating media so I decided that I wanted to create a new hybrid that connects the worlds of entertainment and activism."
In addition to producing and hosting 4REAL, Sol presents to youth at schools, universities and events as a motivational speaker, and still finds time to manage and develop the career of hip hop artist K'NAAN.
Sol started his career as an MC and eventually became the manager of the groundbreaking Canadian hip hop group Rascalz. He then went on to work for Arista Records in New York City as director of International Artist Development. Sol has worked closely with some of the highest profile artists of our time such as Lauryn Hill, P Diddy, India Arie, k-os, Rascalz, The Roots, Outkast, Kardinal Offishall, Dead Prez, B.I.G. and The Wu-Tang Clan.
In 2008, Sol was named a National Geographic Emerging Explorer for his work with 4REAL. He was also named by Playback Magazine as among "The Next 25: Canada's Rising Stars and Dealmakers."
