{"title":"Da Great Deity Dah","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou can tell a lot about an MC by one, what he calls himself, and two, what he names the album. He is writing rhymes for people who want to hear more than the regular clichés - Kari Orr\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlas, one of history's greatest warriors has emerged! Da Great Deity DAH commands the mic supremely with an arsenal of explosive vocab and master knowledge of the universe creating complex tablets bearing dynamic imagery, ideologies, and prophetic insights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough DAH began his soulful expressions on this plane in the early '80s, October 1995 marked the genesis of Royal Alchemist Productions, DAH's own music production company through the premiere music release from Da Great Deity DAH, The Awakening Phenomena, an intense freestyle collaboration with Sykrit Mauwva focusing on the Million Man March and current world political issues. Over 115 copies were independently sold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDa Deity saw even greater sales with the sample release of Holy Scriptures (which will be the title of his next project already underway), a collection of his demo tracks which sold over 140 copies. These sales were surpassed when Life Or Death The EP generated combined vinyl and cassette sales of over 3000 units expanding Da Deity's audience throughout DC, Atlanta, New York, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Tallahassee, Nebraska, New Jersey, and internationally to Tokyo, Romania, Belgium, Puerto Rico, and Australia. The EP received a top review from the Sydney, Australia-based hip-hop magazine Vapours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCerebral Warfare and To Take Hip-Hop Back followed Life Or Death The EP, respectively and have also circulated globally branding DAH's lyrical prowess into hip-hop's remarkable history. Thembisa Mshaka boasted of To Take Hip-Hop Back in Gavin magazine's March 13, 1998 issue. This record is phat from top to bottom! For starters, a lovely melodic sample driven by strings and chimes assists Deity Dah in his lyrical seduction of the microphone. He even kicks science in an imaginative fashion, musing on interludes with some of hip-hop's flyest females.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe universe must now prepare for Da Great Deity DAH's fifth projectile Declaration Of War. A main gains immortality when his daily deeds and goals are worth dying for, therefore when his body decays his soul shall remain everlasting. - Da Great Deity DAH\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBattle line is drawn so present your counter-rendition\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"da-great-deity-dah-life-or-death-5030-vinyl","title":"Da Great Deity Dah - Life or Death 5030 (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e100 Limited copies that are remastered and remixed edition of the first album by Da Great Deity Dah to celebrate 30 years of music and 50 years of life.
