Savage Writer, the Newark-born multi-talented artist, has spent over a decade mastering the art of storytelling—and he’s just getting started. From books and poetry to music, theater, and film, he’s built a career rooted in raw emotion, deep personal experience, and a fearless commitment to growth. What began as a passion for writing has grown into a movement, with Savage using every tool at his disposal to connect, inspire, and push the culture forward.
Early Career and Literary Breakthrough
His creative journey took shape in 2014 with the release of his first book, The Ballad of Sidney Hill, a story about a young man navigating a harsh new environment while discovering himself along the way. It was a powerful debut, full of emotional honesty and introspection—two qualities that have come to define all of Savage’s work. Since then, he’s released over thirty titles, including his most recent poetry collection, Ashes 2 Ashes, Dust 2 Dust, a gripping look at heartbreak, addiction, self-doubt, and the strength it takes to rise above it all.
A Mindset Built on Growth
Education has always played a major role in his development, both personally and creatively. After earning his degree from Berkeley College in 2019 and another from Kean University in 2022, Savage made it clear that knowledge and discipline are just as important to him as raw talent. Still, it’s his ability to tap into something real—something universal—that sets him apart.
Inspired by Culture, Grounded in Truth
Drawing inspiration from across pop culture, including books, anime, video games, films, and especially music, Savage channels his influences in unexpected ways. Tupac Shakur, in particular, remains one of his biggest creative inspirations—both for his poetic approach and his unapologetic authenticity. Savage doesn’t just write stories or lyrics; he lives them.
The Hustle Now: Music, Theater & More
Right now, he’s moving full speed ahead. He’s performing live across the Tri-State area, bringing his words and energy to the stage while staying grounded in the community that shaped him. He’s also actively involved in theater productions and is currently working on a deeply personal documentary about his life—one that promises to offer a closer look at the experiences that made him who he is.
What’s Next for Savage Writer?
In addition to all of that, he’s dropping new music singles and is hard at work on a brand-new book set to release in 2026. Whether he’s behind the pen, on stage, or in front of the camera, Savage Writer continues to evolve and expand his creative reach.
A Voice the World Needs Right Now
At his core, Savage is more than just an artist—he’s a storyteller with a mission. His work is about more than fame or accolades. It’s about healing, reflection, and showing others that they’re not alone in their struggles. With everything he’s built so far—and everything still to come—it’s clear Savage Writer is a voice this world needs right now.
