Big Chaplin is a hip-hop artist, mentor, and entrepreneur whose story runs from street life to faith, ministry, and community leadership.
In 2005, a ministry visit to West Columbia, SC became a permanent home and a turning point. Rooted in faith and fueled by purpose, he channeled his lived experience into authentic music and community leadership.
His discography, from You Can’t Stop This (2013) to the 2022 single I Be (Radio), bridges street life and faith with a message of resilience. Off the mic, he runs mentorship programs for youth and emerging artists and leads 88 Recording Studio, a creative hub connecting artists, faith, and community.
“Second chances are real. I’m living proof.”
