"I'M DA BADDEST MUTHA F*!!%R YOU'RE EVER GONNA SEE...!!"
"Yehh, dat's me....MILLION DAN..."
MILLION DAN first Exploded on the music scene as a kid - as part of the Heavyweight & groundbreaking crew 'The Demon Boyz'. The group brought a fresh angle and energy to Hip-Hop music worldwide, delivering some huge singles and albums that won them some of the industries most respected awards.
Albums: RECOGNITION / ORIGINAL GUIDANCE
Singles: Northside / Ruffer than an Animal / Recognition / Vibes / International Karate / Dett / Glimity Glamity
The Demon Boyz toured large parts of the world performing alongside some of the biggest names in the International music scene, but eventually, after a couple of years - The Boyz decided to go their own separate ways.
Million Dan's new found freedom gave him the opportunity to pursue his solo dreams, working his way through the underground circuits of the UK, Europe, Canada and Jamaica, where he developed a MASSIVE following for his distinctive lyrical style.
2004 - Million Dan unleashed the massive radio and club smash hit single/video DOGZ N SLEDGEZ. This badboy tune started a roller coaster of vibes and opportunities for Million Dan, which saw the song/video hitting play list after play list from radio to TV networks right around the world. He then went on to being nominated for several awards in the UK.
2005 - he joined the phenomenal CONCEPT INC. MANAGEMENT based in North America. He then toured extensively throughout the region with acts ranging from, Chuck D, Jeru da Damaja, Juelz Santana and CL Smooth. At the end of the year he raised the roof at the Roc a fella showcase in the Hershey Centre, Canada.
On his return to London, Million Dan then took steps into creating his own Independent Record Label - MILLION DAPPA RECORDS.
2006 - The first official release between Million Dappa Records / Boombox Distribution brought INSTANT success. The PULL UP single - featuring DOGZ N SLEDGEZ, PULL UP REMIX & TEK MICROPHONE went into the Radio 1xtra world hiphop chart at number THREE. The PULL UP REMIX video was also play listed by MTV BASE & CHANNEL U.
The assault continued, with Million Dan embarking upon another European tour - ending in Marseilles (south of France). Million then hit London where he performed alongside David Banner & Guru from Gangstarr - televised by MTV BASE.
At the end of 2006, Million Dan played leading roles on TWO smash hitting tunes. The songs are called 'GO IN' & 'DEVON CREAM' featuring Million Dan alongside RODNEY P / MC D / K.NERS / DYNAMITE MC
2007 - MILLION DAPPA RECORDS - THE O.F.F.I.C.I.A.L J.U.M.P O.F.F...!!

'INNER CITY GOT PLENTY CASES'
Quote: DJ RAS KWAME - RADIO 1/1XTRA:
"Everybody knows about our Gun & Knife problems in the U.K. SALUTE MILLION DAN FOR DROPPING A SONG LIKE THIS......at a time when the Inner City needs as much support as it can get......"
Released: Oct 27th 2008 - iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS....Come & support ya boy...

'RUFFNEK SET THE TREND' (Released: September 14th 2008 - iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS). Released on ABSTRACT URBAN RECORDS, this BADBOY tune see's Million Dan team up with the mighty TAWIAH & the heavyweight producer BABY J.
This completely 'Left Field' song BLEW UP everything in it's path. It instantly hit the Radio One / 1Xtra daytime 'C' playlist. All other Radio Stations quickly got in line.
Quote: DJ SHORTY BLITZ - KISS FM: "This track & the video are both BIIIG, but yo, i'm telling you right now....Millions lyrics are off the RICHTER SCALE!!!" True in every way, the lyrics could almost pass as a 'part 2' for INNER CITY GOT PLENTY CASES. Grimey - Ghetto - REAL TALK.
Says Million: I deliberately built something POTENT for this one, knowing that the DJs would give it daytime airplay. Whilst the peoples are nodding their heads to this one, they're actually downloading some SERIOUSSS lyrics.
Like Babycham said...."REEEEEAL GHETTO STORY....."
'SCREAM OUT / GLIMITY GLAMITY' (Released: April 7th 2008 - iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS)
After dominating virtually ALL of the charts in 2007 with his Mic Chek / Spektrum Ride single, 2008 saw MILLION DAN immediately hit the major radio station play-lists with his follow up club banger 'SCREAM OUT'.
This massive song went on to win the CHOICE FM 'BIG TUNE SOUND CLASH' via live votes - Worldwide.
Rated by many top name Djs as being one of the 'RUFFEST' hiphop tunes released anywhere in the WORLD, SCREAM OUT' instantly hit many daytime playlists including RADIO 1XTRA.
'MIC CHEK / SPEKTRUM RIDE' (Released: August 27th 2007 - iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS) dominated EVERY SINGLE hiphop chart - right across the board.
Few words are needed for this Release!

Check all press.
The Million Dan 'INFRARED MIXTAPE' (OUT NOW - iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS) has been quoted by HIPHOP CONNECTIONS MAGAZINE as being one of the HEAVIEST mixtapes released ANYWHERE in the world for 2007.
More like a pre-album, the INFRARED MIXTAPE features powerhouse names like: BUSTA RHYMES/ NAS & MOBB DEEP (U.S) to BOUNTY KILLER/ ASSASSIN & SIZZLA (J.A) to the U.K's finest DEMON BOYZ/ RODNEY P & MCD.

'PULL UP' was Million Dan's FIRST release (iTUNES / HMV / VIRGIN / SAVVI & ALL SPECIALISTS). This 12" went straight into Radio 1xta's hiphop/RnB chart.
This was a perfect jump off for his (then) brand new Record Label MILLION DAPPA RECORDS.
