About Dee-1

New Orleans based rapper, Dee-1 created his own lane in hip-hop by making music that's

"real," "righteous" and "relevant." He is the self-proclaimed "voice of the underdog who grinds with a higher purpose." In March 2011, Dee-1, a former schoolteacher, garnered a huge buzz in the rap game with the release of "I Hope They Hear Me Vol. 2", a mixtape packed with 18 high energy tracks. Most historic was his single "Jay, 50, and Weezy," that put him on the radar of major label reps. Dee-1 released, "The Focus Tape," (hosted by legendary DJ Mannie Fresh) in 2012, followed by "Psalms of David," (featuring the hit song "Work" ft. Lecrae) creating fans worldwide. Dee-1 signed to RCA Inspiration in 2013 and released his major label debut EP, 3'S UP on February 17, 2015.
