Samuel played at The Big Chill music festival on 6 August 2011; he was ed onstage by Liu, Electronica, and English actor Idris Elba.

Williams, Erykah Badu, Isaiah Washington, Jesse Williams, and Rosario Dawson. The film is set in Langston, Oklahoma, in 1890 and is a gun-slinging, black cowboy western. Samuel's first album under the moniker The Bullitts is titled They Die By Dawn & Other Short Stories.

.. and was released on 9 July 2013. The album was produced entirely by himself and features guest appearances from Jay Electronica, Lucy Liu, Mos Def, Rosario Dawson, Doxi Jones, and Tori Amos.
