D.B | A Rapper Who Speaks On What He’s Seen And Heard

Behind a crisp microphone, the rapper known as D.B tells all about what he’s seen and heard. His music offers some insight into the power of love, financial stability, even loss. But the most crucial factor in his lyricism lies in P.S.A’s about personal growth and staying ten toes down. Through a storytelling cadence, D.B taps into his style of auto-croon, laying a concrete message out on the surface. Often, D.B will use a commanding delivery through his rhymes as well. However, D.B is a father before anything else. Granted that D.B’s music is raw, conscience, and talks about pain, he considers how his words can affect the outcome of many downright confusing dilemmas. Music is D.B’s chance to let go of what’s hurting him and speak his mind. Flipping through his discography, one will find out that D.B’s biggest strength is versatility, punchlines, and hooks: “I can come up with anything for any track.” he adds “You can expect great content, cadence, and just an overall good substance when you hear my music.” Aside from his artistry and family role, D.B is a down to earth guy, a go-getter, genuine, loyal, and straight forward individual. These attributes ultimately show that D.B is just like us, “When I wake up, I gather my thoughts with no music to get a better understanding of how I’m going to relay a message.”

D.B’s name derives from his first name, Donte, and his nickname Bear (which was given to him back in the day by his uncle). His family members would tell D.B that he resembled his uncle’s looks, so he decided to run with the name D.B. While he’s making music, the “Word and Hussle” emcee opts for no theme. Instead, he goes where the beat takes him. To date, D.B enjoyed recording his casket series, which is a recap of what he’s been through in a small time frame. When it comes to punchlines, however, D.B notes this as his number one “You ain’t got the time, don’t panic/Don’t let ’em gas you up, smelling like car mechanics/You enjoy when they call you daddy, need to man up, Especially when your condoms baggy.”At the time, he was getting his car fixed when he wrote the car mechanic line. The other half of the punchline was created because he wanted to speak on how most people brag about their sex game, but when it’s time to own up to the responsibility (such as having a kid), they don’t handle their business. Moving forward, D.B is doing some finishing touches on his first album titled Outside Thoughts. He has some interviews and some performances lined up as well.
