Pretty Lou’s Artist Spotlight of the week – DANSE of BKLYN STICKUP

Born two months premature to a teenage mother and raised in Brooklyn, Danse Daimons has been beating the odds from day one. He has been through it all from graduating from college, hustling in the streets to working a 9-5 to support his family- all while mastering the art of survival in the concrete metropolis.

Hailing from the birthplace of many hip hop pioneers, Danse knows how critical it is to protect the integrity of rap and his hood. He had rapped as a hobby in college but after collaborating with a few close friends they decided it was time to take initiative and let everybody know what Danse is all about.

He’s at the frontline of the BKLYN STICKUP movement, an independent NY based label comprised of producers, directors and other artists. It is completely self operated and everything that has come to fruition up to this point comes as result of the BKLYN STICKUP staff and supporters. His energy is unparalleled and his following continues to grow at exponential rates.

With a certain distaste for bubble gum rap, he wants everyone to understand, his gripe isn’t with the artists making dance songs or wearing tight clothes, it’s purely with the OVER SATURATION of these things in hip hop. Hearing enough of this approach- Danse is here to make sure he has the whole world screaming BKLYN STICKUP.
