Never seen this thread before so it's been good to listen to each track back to back. You can really see his musical progression!

 

Good to see JKB was there from the ground level!

 

Thug life!

His website says he is from Birmingham?!

 

I thought he was from Edinburgh :(

 

Anyway, I think we need a D4NNY picture with him hiving it 5 1

 

Is anyone on twitter able to reach out to him?

 

One time I was trawling through Youtube for D4NNY content and found a video where he explains this. He's being interviewed by two guys about his music, and apparently 'Goodbye' was written because he was leaving Birmingham to move up to Scotland. He had lived in Scotland when he was younger, moved to Birmingham and then moved back again.

 

Creepy Lurker = real D4NNY fan :jjyay:

Definitely lives in Edin as in a few of his videos he's at Edin College.

 

Think he's studying a PHD in slayin mandem.

 

Funded by working part time with his Uncle's carpet fitting business. A dab hand but he's still better at laying phat beats.

Chaka Demus & pliers

Doesn't he say he is a musician not a magician?

 

You guys just don't get it

 

If nothing else, he is at least a lyrical magician.

Definitely sounds like 'I'm a straight up magician, I ain't a magician' to me.

Nice to see that he never stopped chasing his "dreams AND 'OPES". Also noticed he hasn't given up his vocal technique of sounding like he's recording it under his duvet late at night so his mum doesn't hear him.

 

He's so ambition though.

Dusk_Till_Dawn

From the Guardian last year:

 

Malcolm Gladwell reckons the key to success in any field is practising a specific task for about 10,000 hours. Well, sadly in this case, he's wrong. D4nny clearly hasn't practised the art of rap for that amount of time (or if he has he surely would have been slapped with an asbo after numerous complaints from his long-suffering neighbours). But he's managed to gain a video that has been viewed 1.2m times. As Geoffrey Boycott would say, "My Mum could do better." And 1.2m views! Let's put that into context ? the 50th greatest song ever in the history of music (according to Rolling Stone) is Smokey Robinson and the Miracles's The Tracks of My Tears, which has THE SAME AMOUNT OF VIEWS. Oh the humanity. If your timing, hair, backing track and dancing ? which consisted of repeatedly moving your hand over one knee ? was terrible, you might think twice about a career as a rapper. Not D4nny, who went viral this week with Goodbye, a melancholy song in which the British-Asian youth rather depressingly says goodbye to everyone in his life at the same time as he unexpectedly says hello to 1.2m views. This is truly the Plan 9 from Outer Space of music videos. It's shot at a table in what appears to be an abandoned mall, and on a particularly unscenic bit of scruffy hillside, where D4nny sways back and forth morosely and sings through a bizarre reverb that makes him sound like a five-year-old girl. You can see the shadow of the cameraman. Then D4nny teaches us the sign of goodbye. Spoiler alert: it's a wave. To add to the sense of awesome mystery, while saying goodbye, D4nny's cap reads: "I love haters!" As commenter Z3Rv puts it: "Why are you doing this to yourself???????????????????" We couldn't have put it better.

Careful now, danger of drowning in serious moistness there if you do...although its a hard task to copy the master.

 

The "Beautiful font" lyrics are at 1:30......I'm even trawling the comments section now on you tube, brightened up a dull day for sure...

If his font selection is as imaginative and creative as his lyrical writing, he'll no doubt settle for typical shitty Comic Sans.

 

Prick.

I thought to look at the comments but figured that any nastiness in there would spoil a very special moment.

I'm away from home and reading through those lyrics, alone here in this faraway bar, is making me weep.
