ABOUT DANNY BROWN--

Born Daniel Sewell on March 16, 1981, Danny Brown is a hip-hop artist from the Dexter-Linwood area of Detroit, Michigan.

Danny is an unconventional hip-hop artist who employs multiple flows and cadences, thus the moniker "The Hybrid". His style varies from low pitched gravelly tones to a manic, high-pitched squawk.

His lyrics often deal with the truth of living in Detroit: poverty, drug abuse, desperate circumstances, etc. and his own experiences in the motor city, from selling drugs to underground parties in Detroit's rave scene. He is known for juxtaposing those topics with a humorous narrative told ferociously over avant-garde production choices.

Danny has released many free projects over the web, the most popular being 2011's XXX. Brown released the album "Hawaiian Snow" with G-Unit's Tony Yayo and several mixtapes (Detroit State of Mind 1-4, Browntown, It's A Art (with producer Mainframe) and Hot Soup). Brown has found much success on the internet through the support of the music blogs and social media and the decision to release "The Hybrid" online as a free download.

Danny has worked with many artists in the Detroit hip-hop community such as the late J Dilla, Black Milk, Elzhi, Guilty Simpson, Trick Trick, and T3. Also known for championing up-and-coming artists, Danny has worked with lesser known acts such as Oakland, California's Main Attrakionz and is know for promoting these types of underground acts via his twitter.
