King Saladeen

Raheem “King Saladeen” Johnson is a contemporary visual artist from West Philadelphia whose work is driven by a lifelong passion for creativity and positivity. After an early love for art and a promising path in basketball, a life-altering car accident redirected him back to his first passion—art. In 2011, he launched the Saladeen Art Group and quickly gained recognition, with exhibitions across the country and collaborations with major brands and artists. Known for blending art with elements of fashion, music, and luxury culture, King Saladeen continues to build a global following with vibrant work inspired by resilience, community, and hope.
