Meet DougieTheDon
I started rapping at the age of 12. I was obsessed with the Eminem and G unit movement. As a kid I wanted to be apart of G unit (50 cent’s rap group). I was apart of a rap group called F4 which had myself and 3 other of my childhood friends in it. Things never went through because I decided to pursue basketball. 20 years later, I decided to start rapping again. in just 4 months I have been on Shade 45, worldstarhiphop, and was scheduled to perform at the SXSW festival which was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. I just signed a digital distribution deal with The Orchard Sony. The things I have accomplished in 4 months people take years to even touch. I’m very proud of that.
Not at all. That is due to my own issues. I’m a perfectionist and when I have an idea, I have to tackle that idea right away. I sometimes deal with depression and understanding that what may not be perfect to me may be perfect to someone else. My music means a lot to me and everything I talk about it authentic.
I’m a hiphop/rap artist. What makes me different is my spirit and willingness to be transparent. I hold nothing back and I spill my life into my music.
Success is not about personal achievements. Its about how you change the lives of the people around you. Its important that I make a change in this world no matter the cost.
