Critical Praise for Dee-1:

"There's no way to deny Dee's tireless work ethic and consistently superior records that he's been dropping over the last few weeks. Best to wake up and hop on the ship before it sets sail when #TheFocusTape drops on October 9th" – The Smoking Section

"Dee-1 has been puttin' in work on this music thing, droppin' some real impressive jawns as of late, and he has no plans of clockin' out." – Okayplayer

"We have some fresh hip-hop one our hands." – Potholes In My Blog

The Video:

Never one to slow, New Orleans rapper extraordinaire, Dee-1 is still working hard on the road as a part of The Heist World Tour, alongside Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. Despite the constant grind of touring, Dee is releasing the latest video for the song "Love Me Some You" off #TheFocusTape, his latest mixtape hosted by hip-hop vet Mannie Fresh.

In Dee's self-directed new video, "Love Me Some You" tells the tale of a young woman who is vying for Dee's affection, despite already being in a relationship. Unfortunately for the would-be lover, Dee makes it clear that they aren't meant to be and rejects her infidelity by cleverly saying, "If she cheated on her ex with you, now she's next to you/ Then homie, her next ex is you." The song is perfectly paired with the visual story told in the video, culminating with a twist ending.

In addition to working on his music, Dee-1 has also been flexing his acting muscles on the side. Most recently, he appeared in an episode of HBO's Treme, an Emmy-nominated drama series set in post-Katrina New Orleans. In last night's episode, Dee plays "Percy Mackie," a street dude who is helping his brother hide from the cops. During his scene, Dee has a tense exchange with a NOPD detective, who Dee beats up with an accomplice before fleeing the house.

The Background:

Born and raised in the heart of New Orleans, Dee-1 shared the same struggles as the legendary artists that put the 504 on the map, but he represents the city with a different viewpoint. After graduating from Louisiana State University with a bachelor's degree, Dee-1 began teaching middle school in Baton Rouge, but as his buzz as an artist continued to grow, he finally decided that his passion for hip hop was too much to ignore and that being "Dee-1" gave him a much larger platform to be heard than being "Mr. Augustine." After establishing a solid street buzz with his mixtapes Still We Rise and I Am Who I Am, Dee-1 founded his own entertainment company, OMAR Ent. (One Man Army Entertainment,) and released his critically acclaimed album David & Goliath, leading hometown hero Mannie Fresh and esteemed producer 9th Wonder to reach out to him personally with praise. Dee-1's next project, I Hope They Hear Me Vol. 2, continued Dee's ascent, receiving thousands of downloads worldwide, while a number of singles from the album received radio play and airplay on MTV Jams. Now, Dee-1 has released his new mixtape, #TheFocusTape, which is hosted by Mannie Fresh and features the likes of Juvenile, Mos Def, MURS, and Killer Mike. To support the tape, Dee-1 has hit the road this fall, for what will be his fourth nationwide tour, a 50-date run alongside Macklemore.
