Damond Blue – “V.S.O.P.”

Damond Blue’s album “V.S.O.P” (Victory Shall Only Prosper) premiered on Billboard and boasts records with Young Thug, Moneybagg Yo, TK Kravitz, Young Scooter and more.  Production is handled by London On Da Track, WondaGurl and more. 

Sirius XM also made Damond a First Alert Artist this month for his single “With The Shit’s” featuring Young Thug, and Apple Music placed the single in their Hot Tracks.

Back Story: If you’re not familiar with Damond, he’s a very inspirational artist from Baltimore’s Eastside and completely changed his life around when his best friend was murdered when he was 17.  Since then it’s been his mission to give back to the youth in the city through his organization Beats Not Bullets.  Artists close to him like Fat Trel, King Los and many others in the city often donate their time no questions asked, whether its movie nights, pizza parties, etc. where the kids can bear witness to first-hand success stories in a city often riddled with violence.
 

Past artists Damond has collaborated with include Bun B, Jadakiss, Wale, King Los and more since releasing his debut project Blessonz in 2015.

Billboard said it was a “…breath of fresh air…” and the team over at Billboard sat with Damond for an amazing conversation that is quite inspirational.

You should read the full interview by  on Billboard.com.

Beyond the music, I think it’s safe to say Damond will be part of the conversation for a long time to come ~ JD
