2. Solomon is a pop artist from San Diego, California, United States. An electronic 'Hip Pop' artist, Solomon (born Solomon Raymond Barnett) began performing in numerous dance troupes and church choirs, where he grew a strong affinity towards sound and music. In 2008, Solomon began recording music with fellow artist Robbery, making the Hip-Hop duo, The Black Market. Shortly going solo, Solomon released a brace of mixtapes, Rhyting Rhymes Vol. 1 and Rhyting Rhymes Vol. 2, in 2008. Then, Solomon began working on a new project entitled, Shades of Black (eventually released in 2009), Solomon's first attempt at songwriting and producing.

3. Solomon Cutner, CBE, professionally known as Solomon (born 6 August 1902; died 22 February 1988) was a British pianist. Born in the East End of London in 1902, he was a child prodigy whose talent was recognised at the age of seven when, having had no formal tuition, he performed his own arrangement of the 1812 Overture on the family piano. He gave his first concerts in 1912 at the age of ten, retired from public performance in his teens and then resumed his career as an adult performer. He began making records in 1929. As a child he was sent to live with his teacher, Mathilde Verne, who had studied with Clara Schumann. It is documented that Verne abused and exploited her young charge. Solomon brought to his playing an effortless virtuosity, great respect for the printed score, and deep spirituality. He toured abroad a good deal, particularly during and shortly after World War II, when he gave numerous much-cherished recitals in the United States and Australia. He premiered the Piano Concerto by Arthur Bliss at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Known especially for his Beethoven, which has an almost legendary status (he broadcast the entire cycle of the 32 piano sonatas), he was in the midst of completing the complete cycle of the sonatas for EMI Records when he suffered a devastating stroke in 1956, which paralyzed his right arm. He never recorded or performed in public again, but lived another 32 years. His recordings of Mozart, Schumann, and Brahms are also highly regarded. Solomon was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1946. He died in London in 1988, aged 85.
4. Starting out in the Dutch city of Maastricht, Solomon is an up and coming, sophisticated pop/rock band from The Netherlands, who introduced themselves on the Dutch scene during Popronde 2022 and the ESNS Festival in early 2023. Their début album, It’s All Downhill From Here, was released in January 2023.
5. SOLOMON is a pop and R&B singer from the UK. His debut EP, FOR STARTERS, was released in June 2023. He also rose in popularity when his song "Phases" was sampled in Ice Spices "On The Radar" Freestyle.
