Daidough is the red-hot New Jersey artist paving the way for the (you heard it here first) “Jersey drill” sound. You may also know him as GMGB Daidough, this exciting young independent rapper is making waves in the garden state. On every track, Daidough hits listeners with a ferocious flow with more words-per-minute than most rappers’ entire project. His latest release, “Turn It Up a Notch” is no different. Packed with hard-hitting, nonstop bars, and jaw-dropping punchlines over a challenging beat that would shred a lesser artist. You can get more of this infectious, machine-gun style flow on other fan-favorite tracks like “A Hood Near You” and “Deadass.”
Daidough is no one-trick-pony though. On the aptly titled “Ghetto Melodies,” he perfectly showcases his ability to “do both” by switching to a more melodic flow. In March, he got a chance to show off his acting skills with a cameo in Jadakiss featuring Pusha-T’s, “Huntin Season.” Ever since making waves back in 2018 with his first-day-out track “Wop 4 Wop,” Daidough has been an artist-to-watch. Now, in 2020, we are seeing a fully focused Daidough on a mission. No doubt big things are on the way for this exciting independent artist out of Jersey. If “Jersey drill” is going to be a thing, you can be sure Daidough will be at the front of the pack.
