DameDot: It's all types of mafia vibes from Detroit's 'Made Man' album

You know the project slaps when there’s a Meadow and Tony ‘Sopranos’ scene being played on the intro song, right? Turns out Detroit’s own DameDot is on the steady grind and putting out quality tunes with his new Made Man studio effort now out.

DameDot puts the entire Motown on his back for ‘Made Man’

Whether you want a few hard-hitting songs or need a full-fledged project with more than 90 minutes of audio bars, you’re in for a joyride coming from the Midwest native.

Detroit’s DameDot proves again why he’s a Made Man in his newest album, released through EMPIRE. The 24-track album is a display of DameDot’s luxurious raps blended with his signature Detroit drill rap sounds. 

The last time hip-hop heard from DameDot was his most recent visual release for “GETAWAY,” which garnered 145k views within the first week of release. Made Man shows almost every side of DameDot. Although it’s mostly a solo project, it has a few features from the likes of Doughboy Clay, Young Will, Yung Reef, and Ravin Lemar. 

This large body of work has a variety of different sounds from Doughboy Clay’s soulful vocals on the braggadocious song “IN LOVE WIT MONEY” to an ominous drill cadence-filled song in “SINNING”. 

DameDot shows introspection as he assesses what’s going on around him in “KINGS AND QUEENS.” He opens the song with lines such as “I feel like we cool enough for me to ask some questions. Why do all these women use they sex as a weapon? Why do you got to show your whole body for attention? You do realize we be laughing in them mentions?” He questions how people chase social media clout rather than pursuing money after being hurt by a former lover. He even questions men on why they flash money in their pictures and live by a kill-or-be-killed mentality rather than making long-term emotional and financial investments.

The Fader summarized DameDot’s sound in a recent article by saying, “listening to his music, you’ll hear an unpredictable blend of mafioso raps, free game, throwback samples, and flexes absurd enough to make you pause the track to make sure you caught what he said… There’s a Damedot song for almost every mood imaginable.” 

Made Man is DameDot’s eleventh solo project and based on this body of work, it looks like DameDot has a lot more left in the tank.

DameDot puts the entire Motor City on his back to F**k Yo Summer completely up again

Detroit’s own DameDot isn’t slowing down during the hottest season of the year. Instead, the hip-hop artists is only making temps rise courtesy of his new Fuck Yo Summer deluxe studio album.

DameDot’s non-stop grind continues with new album

It’s deeper than an EP and way more impressive than your standard LP. This time around, DD comes through clutch with a deluxe version spanning more than 30 tunes all on a single effort.

A true boss lords over as much territory as possible. As far as Detroit goes, there may not be a boss bigger right now than DameDot. DameDot’s outreach for The Motor City goes beyond his creative bodies of music; his outreach is also felt through various businesses such as security and charity programs. In January, DameDot released a 25-track album The Umbrella Again, which provided quick songs in a plentiful amount that gained love from Pitchfork and DJ Booth.

F**k Yo Summer is his latest Magnus Opus that contains 24 songs. The Team Eastside OG provides another project that hits like a flurry of jabs with quick songs that transition into another song seamlessly. The highlights of the album are “Chinese Fanta,” “Blood on This Money,” “That’s it,” “Bigger Picture,” “One One,” and “PROUD.'' DameDot raps in the signature Detroit drill cadence that many other cities started to pick up in the past year. His smooth delivery gives the perfect balance to the aggressive and ominous production.  

And before the deluxe, Dame came through with his initial project which spanned nearly 30 tunes.
