Durham, North Carolina rapper Danny Blaze is a freshly unique fusion of Hip-Hop and R&B. Before venturing on a music career of his own, Danny made a name for himself in the NC music scene as a part of the popular duo The Koolest. Looking for a way out of a gang affiliated lifestyle that almost cost him his life several times, his escape route was found upon discovering he could rap – well. Toting his southern energy, adding flare from his soul influence, favorite east coast, west coast, and midwestern artists garnered him the opportunity to open up for Big K.R.I.T., Juicy J, A$AP FERG, Joey Fatts, Key!, Smoke DZA, and radio play at Raleigh K97.5 FM.
Danny Blaze releases his cinematic visual “Pus(her)” based on his experience of dating a woman who sold drugs and the mark it left on him. “The inspiration for Pus(her) came from “Trap Queen” by Fetty Wap. I first heard it and immediately thought of her.
“Pus(her) is somewhat my response to “Trap Queen”. I wanted to show the not so glorious side of drug trafficking that Fetty didn’t talk about and what can eventually happen such as being incarcerated or killed,” recalls Danny.
Directed by HeadGraphix, Danny Blaze walks you through their time spent together and his lady hustling. You can expect to hear this lead single produced by Hak and more storytelling rhymes on his upcoming ‘Punk Ass Dan’ EP releasing the end of 2016.
Notable verses:
“The weight keep moving and the loot is getting better/ But in the back of her mind she thinks ‘I can’t do this sh– forever’/ Cuz everybody knows it’s only two places you end up/ Police tryna lock you down and n–s wanna shoot you for ya cheddar ”
“Say she wanna have some kids, be a mother/ And we both gon have a Benz, different colors/ Every night we in the bed under covers/ Talking bout all the time we gon spend with each other”
