*Paul Anthony, born Paul Anthony George on September 4, 1958, in Brooklyn, New York, has long been a multifaceted force in the entertainment industry. An actor, producer, songwriter, and vocalist, Anthony’s career spans nearly three decades, during which he has made significant contributions to music and film.
He is perhaps best known for his roles in iconic urban films like “House Party,” “House Party 2,” and “Krush Groove,” and for being a key member of the Grammy Award-winning R&B hip-hop group Full Force.
Not limited to film and music, Anthony has collaborated with a roster of talented artists, including the likes of Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, James Brown, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj. His work helped shape the sound of hip-hop, soul, and pop, earning him numerous accolades, including Grammy Awards and records that have achieved Gold, Platinum, and Diamond status.
Despite a successful career and commitment to fitness and bodybuilding, Paul Anthony faced a harrowing personal battle when he was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma, a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
“I was in the gym training and my training partner saw a small lump in my neck. He thought it was unusual and suggested that I get checked out. I didn’t feel anything, which is pretty normal with this disease. I went to the doctor and had a FNA (fine needle aspiration). During the biopsy procedure, they removed fluid and tested it. The biopsy was conclusive and there still is no cure for this disease,” Anthony said about his experience.
The subsequent biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, and although there is currently no cure, he has emerged as a “Cancer Champion,” using his platform to bring awareness and advocate for early cancer screenings and diagnoses.
In addition to his advocacy efforts, which include the establishment of the Paul Anthony Cancer Champion Foundation, Anthony’s passion for music remains unwavering. Recently, he released a new single titled “Ready To Learn Your Love.” This soulful tune reminisces about the romantic falsetto-driven tracks of the ’60s and ’70s, showcasing his expressive tenor voice, according to Soul Tracks. Through the song, Anthony emphasizes the importance of nurturing love and commitment, stating, “The same things you did to get her are the same things you need to do to keep her.”
Paul Anthony’s journey is a testament to resilience. From his early days in the entertainment industry to becoming a prominent voice in cancer advocacy, he embodies the spirit of perseverance and commitment to both personal growth and communal well-being. As he continues to face health challenges head-on, he inspires many with his music and advocacy work while proving that one’s passions can thrive even in the face of adversity.
As Paul Anthony continues to champion health awareness while sharing his musical gifts, he reinforces the notion that his voice—be it in song or in advocacy—is one that resonates beyond the entertainment world to touch lives.
