Coming up next behind established artists like Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Pharrell, Pusha T, & recently Young Money Yawn, who have set the pace for the Virginia sound within the culture, we have D.R.A.M.. This singer/rapper has emerged himself in 2014 as a new era of artistry & he’s managed to put his city on the map while doing so.
As of lately, he’s been capitalizing on the positive feedback earned from his latest mixtape ‘#1EpicSummer‘ following its release over the summer. His breakout record ‘Cha Cha‘ gained the attention from the “pulse” of the culture, that being COMPLEX/Pigs & Planes, & his follow-up record ‘Get Money‘ landed him recognition by co-founder of Def Jam Recordings, Rick Rubin. It’s safe to say that this year has been incredible to the upcoming 757 artist.
As we approach the holidays & new year, D.R.A.M. liberates a new track titled ‘#1HappyHoliday‘, using similar artwork & title font from his mixtape. His soulful vocals over the Bub Ruth & Peter Cottonale instrumental are extremely complimentary to his unique sound.
Listen below as D.R.A.M. wishes you all a very happy holiday in the best way he knows how.
