New Orleans

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN RAPPING:
4 years

SO WHO INFLUENCED YOU IN THE RAP GAME GROWING UP?  
Nas, Tupac, DMX, Cash Money Records, and No Limit Records

WHAT DO YOU FEEL YOU CAN BRING TO THE GAME?
I bring the passion of a man put here to entertain and empower people with his music. I don't compete with other rappers because I have my own lane.

HOW DO YOU PLAN TO SEPERATE YOURSELF FROM OTHER ARTIST?    
By just being myself. A few years ago I realized that God only made one Dee-1, so if I do ME to the fullest, no one can duplicate that.
 
SO, HOW HAS THE GRIND FOR YOU TRYING TO BUILD THAT STREET CRED AND GOOD FAN BASE?    
Its been hard, but I enjoy the grind. Without struggle there can be no progress. Thats why I appreciate my success so much now-a-days. Its a blessing to have my 1st official album, "David & Goliath" dropping in Mid April. Its a blessing to have been able to perform with people like Akon, Lupe Fiasco, Juvenile, and Musiq Soulchild. My fanbase is loyal to me and they keep it 100 with me, so I feel like I have the best fans in the world.
 
WHAT'S OUT THERE FOR THE PEOPLE RIGHT NOW TO HEAR FROM YOU (CD'S/MIXTAPES)?    
Currently my "I Am Who I Am" Mixtape is out and my debut album, "David & Goliath" is dropping APRIL 13th. It'll be available at Best Buy, online at dee1music.com, on I Tunes, and in all mom & pops retailers.
 
WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU?    
Dropping my album in mid April... Then I have a bunch of shows lined up locally and out of town. And I'm also going on a college tour.

MOST RAPPERS FIRST ALBUM IS REAL LIFE BASED, MOSTLY WHAT THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH, WHAT CAN THE PEOPLE EXPECT FROM YOU?    
This album contains some of the most creative concepts heard on a cd in a long time. Also, it talks about my real life experiences in a way that makes the listener feel the same emotions I felt at the time. I didn't get into this game to be average or ordinary. So although I don't have a major deal yet, my album definitely stands up to the best hip hop albums that have come out in recent memory... Can't wait for yall to hear it.
