Dante

The hip-hop music industry is inundated with emerging rappers and emcees, and it is sometimes easy for an artist on the rise to become jaded when introduced as a new rapper—not for this female hip-hop artist, Dante, who takes her music to an entirely new level. With witty rhymes, slick punch lines, an extremely polished flow and melodic voice, she captivates her audience with her raw and intense flavorful songs. HIP Video Promo introduces “Walk It,” a video clip that characterizes the organic nature of this emerging hip-hop artist.

Dante’s music is influenced by a variety of genres such as rock, pop, and jazz, and when listening to her voice, this becomes quite evident. Her “ability to glide over a beat is uncanny—with a flow that is unmatched and a thing of beauty.” She has had the opportunity to work alongside fellow artists like Lil Mama, and was the opener for Trey Songz at a performance in Virginia, not to mention the countless showcases she has won locally in New York and internationally.

Most recently, Dante has worked with one of the more prestigious producers in hip-hop today, Dot Da Genius. Dot—a Grammy nominated producer who was responsible for Kid Cud’s Day N’ Nite and WZRD album—has lent his skill to “Walk It”, the first single from her upcoming release Nevermore. In her latest clip “Walk It,” Dante says it like it is and shows her audience just how bold her personality really is. Click here for the full bio on the HIP Video website.
