Bio

Fogwood City Citizen since 2020.

Paulo and the Problems blends R&B and hip-hop with the neon glow of City-Hop. Born in Newark, NJ and now based in Raleigh, NC, the project builds slow-jam grooves around warm basslines, cinematic synths, and late-night atmosphere. Paulo’s music sits at the intersection of nostalgia and modern rhythm, drawing inspiration from 80s soul, hip-hop storytelling, and the visual language of retro-futurist city nights. His current work expands the City-Hop sound through new collaborations and visual storytelling.
