Get Your Own! | View SlideshowA DOT DEMIR AKA ANTOINE DEMIR BAILEY WAS BORN IN OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA ON OCTOBER 19, 1984. HE WAS RAISED IN THE BAY AREA AND SPENT SOME TIME IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA... TO ESCAPE FROM THE MEAN STREETS, DEMIR WOULD OFTEN WRITE ABOUT HIS SURROUNDINGS AND IMPLICATE THEM INTO RHYMES. AT THE TIME THE WEST COAST RAP SCENE WAS BOOMING, AND DEMIR OFTEN CREDITS HIS FAVORITE ALBUM AS 2PAC'S ALL EYEZ ON ME ALBUM... A ALBUM THAT WOULD CHANGE HIS LIFE FOREVER. THAT ALBUM GOT DEMIR INTERESTED IN TAKING RAP SERIOULSLY, BUT HE WOULDN'T DO SO UNTIL HE MOVED TO THE EAST COAST... DURING HIGH SCHOOL DEMIR'S MOTHER DECIDED TO PICK HER FAMILY UP AND MOVE TO VIRGINIA... UPON MOVING TO VIRGINIA, DEMIR DIDN'T REALLY FIT IN AND HAD TO FIGHT FOR RESPECT.... A MOVED THAT GOT HIM EVENTUALLY KICKED OUT OF SCHOOL. RETURNING TO A NEW SCHOOL THE FOLLOWING YEAR WOULD PROVE TO BE INSTRUMENTAL FOR DEMIR AS HE MET PEOPLE THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY GIVE HIM THE INSPIRATION TO MAKE MUSIC...AROUND HIS JUNIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL THE VIRGINIA MUSIC SCENE WAS BLOWING UP, AND DEMIR GOT ON HIS GRIND. THAT YEAR HE WOULD EVENTUALLY WRITE HIS FIRST 16 BARS, AND RAP WOULD NOW ON BE A DRIVING FORCE AND GOAL IN A DOT'S LIFE..."I KNOW DRUG DEALERS, THUGS, AND ALL OF THE ABOVE... BUT I WANTED TO RAP, F*** THAT I CANT BE IN JAIL, I AM NOT A THUG." SAYS DEMIR. ON HIS MIXTAPE, LIVE FROM VA, SLATED FOR RELEASE THIS SUMMER, A DOT DEMIR LOOKS LIKE HE IS ON HIS WAY TO STARDOM AND HE IS HUMBLE ABOUT THE WHOLE SITUATUION... " I JUST THANK GOD EVERYDAY FOR THE OPPURTUNITIES, THE BLESSINGS, MY HEALTH, AND MOST OF ALL MY LIFE...
1.GOD
2. FAM
3. RAP TO GET THIS MONEY"
WITH INDEPENDENT AND MAJOR LABELS SHOWING LOTS OF INTEREST, DEMIR IS TAKING HIS CAREER ONE DAY AT A TIME..."SOMETIMES YOU GET OVERWELMED BY LABELS, BUT THE BEST THING TO DO IS JUST WAIT FOR THE RIGHT DEAL, AND THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO DO." DEMIR IS CURRENTLY WORKING ON HIS ALBUM PROPERLY TITLED "GOING BACK TO CALI". EXPECT PRODUCTION FROM VERNON, DJ ROB, JON VEGAZ, AND T.STEVES, ALL MAJOR PLAYERS IN VIRGINIA RAP SCENE. ALSO EXPECT ALL KINDS OF FEATURES FROM RAPPERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
