DaVinci – It’s On Me

DaVinci (aka J. DaVinci), a young MC raised in the Fillmore District, is preparing for his debut release on label SWTBRDS Creative Collective, The Day The Turf Stood Still. Rife with drugs, turf wars, and mass gentrification, the Fillmore District has bred more rappers per capita than any other district in San Francisco. His traumatic and dangerous experiences growing up has lead DaVinci to use his words to paint a picture of his troubled landscape through rap. Expect a hard, raw, vintage hip-hop feel through the 17-track album with production from the Drums and Ammo production crew that will set him apart from the rest.

The Day The Turf Stood Still is scheduled to hit the streets on March 9, 2010. Building momentum for the release, in addition to releasing material from his upcoming debut, DaVinci will be releasing three bonus tracks not on the album. Rather than throwaways, all three are album-quality songs, simply completed too late to make the final cut. Up first, DaVinci offers us “It’s On Me,” and with this initial offering, gives listeners, both familiar and unfamiliar with DaVinci’s prior work, a window into his prior life — telling his own story of struggling his way out of a lifestyle of crime, taking big steps to help himself move up in the world.
