2017
Our story
Founded in 2017, Soulful Silverback began as a creative outlet for Neville “The Silverback,” a storyteller and small business owner writing first-person stories with a soulful sound. It has grown into the soulful story of a creative brand.
The brand design elements feature a bold 1970s orange and a modern silverback icon that is modeled after Auguste Rodin’s sculpture, The Thinker.
Our intention
Our intention is to give voice to the Black millennial experience in the 21st century, develop a community united in storytelling, understanding, and love, and provide a vision of political, economic, and social freedom for the Black community.
The Silverback experience
For readers & explorers
Read first-person pieces shaped by family, race, culture, ambition, contradiction, and Brooklyn. Begin with the 12-piece e-book Chaining Day, step into the story through Little Caribbean Uncovered, and hear its wider cultural connections through Soulful Samples.
The collection turns the Silverback perspective into something tangible and helps support the development of this independent storytelling space.
For BUSINESSES
Soulful Silverback brings two decades of enterprise technology, sales, and consulting experience to retailers and growing organizations.
Through technology consulting, contract advisory, and strategic consulting, we help organizations connect their priorities, prepare for consequential decisions, and move forward with greater clarity.
Our heart
Our heart is in community. We continue to volunteer time speaking with universities, high schools, and sports teams while exploring partnerships with educational nonprofits. If your work is rooted in storytelling, understanding, love, and freedom, let’s find the time to connect.
