Sounds Like: Derek D has a style all of his own combining elements of hip-hop, old-school and harder edge rap to make something truly unique and different. All it takes is one listen and you'll agree, Derek D does what he wants and invites you to come along for the ride.
With all the "artists" out there these days copying the latest fads and trends, it's refreshing to hear someone who chooses to be an originator and not an imitator.
He's been known to take an old school beat and mix it up with heavy rock guitars, a country slide twang and balance it out with some female operatic new age background vocals. Whatever he feels - he does, and doesn't try to fit into any one category.
Keep your eyes and ears open for the new CD "Belly of the Beast" coming your way soon.
Record Label: independent, for now... but not for long!
