Cellus Hamilton

Cellus Hamilton is a hip-hop artist and minister based in Harlem, New York, where he lives with his wife Denya and their sons, Simeon and Marcellus. Raised in Atlanta, Cellus was surrounded by music and faith early on, inspired by his mother, who was also an artist. Today, he carries that torch by delivering bold messages of faith and purpose through his music, speaking, and ministry. A well-traveled musician and Howard University alumnus, Cellus is passionate about influencing the culture and elevating conversations about faith, relationships, and purpose within the hip-hop community. He’s also big on health and fitness, a lifelong fan of the Chicago Bulls and Kansas City Chiefs, and known as a “power nap” pro who somehow keeps a strict no-coffee rule. Beyond performing, Cellus spends time as a guest preacher across the U.S. and speaks in prisons, sports camps, and business summits. When he’s not writing or on stage, Cellus enjoys basketball, good food, and quality time with friends and family. He’s devoted to mentoring young men, challenging them to pursue their potential and embrace God’s vision for their lives—especially when it comes to the often-taboo subject of sexual purity. Through his music, speaking, and example, Cellus Hamilton continues to inspire people to seek true purpose, deeper connection, and faith-driven transformation.
