Newsflash

Pain is tearing up all the rule books and setting the music world alight with his raw talent. His thought-provoking lyrics, distinctively piercing and poignant delivery, and original production have made him one of the hottest new stars in gangster music;

Hip-hop is notorious for bad boys. It seems like the more mischievous the rapper, the more compelling his rhymes are. Pain has already proved his devilish behavior is as fascinating as it is entertaining. The Nashville, Tennessee MC is a known problem across the United States. With almost seven years of experience on the mic, Pain has already proved he can move mass amounts of units independently. Pain recently topping the charts in the underground with his like "Dopeman Phone Number" , he is set to bring the second wave of Tennessee talent to the mainstream signing to the independent promotional label Artist Promotionz in association with Def Jam, Sony, Columbia, Aftermath, KnoC Entertainment, Radio One Music, Radio AllStar & Many More associated companies.

 

 

With a sizable offering of tracks that touch on a wide variety of topics close to Pain's heart like his tormented relationship with the street and doing dirt in the streets, Pain is a versatile MC with limitless potential. Now that his album is guaranteed to be pushed on a national level, Pain is prepared to wreak havoc outside of his comfort zone. His major label debut, D-Boy Salute Volume 1, is his most well rounded offering yet. "I'm touching everybody on my new album," he says. "These rappers today sell two, three million records and you can't listen to nothing but two songs on their album. That's why the rap game is so messed up right now. My biggest strength as an artist is you can listen to every song from front to back." Spoken like a true artist.

Pain started out as a member of the group True Thugs, Bandmates consisted of Pain, his cousin Onion, Hi-C {G-Unit South} and other cousin Pelle. Pain left to college in SouthBend, Ind. and put music on the backburner. But the separation of music a college was too much to bare, and his college road would be short lived. He got a call from the music gods, Pain returned to Nashville and hooked up with Tec {Kings Court} and made mainstream hits like; "Dope Man Phone Number" & "Drop It On Thr Skates". Now he has cooked up some new flavor with Fate Eastwood {Street Tunes} and laced them with; "Anamae" also with "Yo **** Azz" and title track "Dope Boy Salute". With Pain's raw delivery and fresh Dope-Boy approach to the game, it's pretty simple to say he's tha Next Thang Smoking. Pain and his partner Won have a plan with the assistance of God.
