Daniel Dewan Sewell (born March 16, 1981), best known by his stage name Danny Brown, is a hip-hop artist from the Dexter-Linwood area of Detroit, Michigan. He has been described by MTV as "one of rap's most unique figures in recent memory". Danny is an unconventional hip-hop artist who employs multiple flows and cadences, thus the moniker “The Hybrid”. His style varies from low pitched gravelly tones to a manic, high-pitched squawk. His lyrics often deal with the truth of living in Detroit: poverty, drug abuse, desperate circumstances, etc. and his own experiences in the motor city, from selling drugs to underground parties in Detroit’s rave scene. He is known for juxtaposing those topics with a humorous narrative told ferociously over avant-garde production choices. Finally, after a long 5 years since his last solo album, Danny Brown would release his highly anticipated sixth studio album 'Quaranta', the 'spiritual successor' to 2012's 'XXX'. This album shows Danny in an all-new light, focusing on his introspection towards life after dealing with years of substance abuse, extreme alcoholism, Black issues, dilemma from an exhaustion in music creation, and much more. Quaranta was met with extensive praise from critics and listeners alike, and yea like duh it has MIKE on it.
