Breaking News! DEAJI's Debut single, "The Circus" moves up 25 spots in just 7 weeks on the Urban/Hip-Hop TOP30 charts! "THE CIRCUS" rockets from #41 to #16 with a bullet, putting DEAJI in the same company with Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Alicia Keys and others.
"Diary of a Starving Artist," is shaping up to be one of the hottest records of this coming year. So who is DEAJI and what is "Diary of a Starving Artist?" Born in Flint, Mi DEAJI began his quest for hip-hop supremacy in 1991, then known as 2face. He was performing in local clubs before he was legally able to be in them.
The true story began in 1996 when the death of his brother birthed the man known as DEAJI THE LEGEND. DEAJI has been perfecting his craft for years and has developed into a talented songwriter/producer. He was an on-air DJ for the popular Flint, Mi station 92.7 and has performed at various clubs and seminars all across the country.
DEAJI's debut LP "Diary of a Starving Artist" is a living diary of what he's seen and lived. His life and his innermost feelings are revealed all throughout this 14 track masterpiece. On standout cuts such as "Money and Fame," "City of Angels" and "They Forgot About Us" you will hear the perspective of a man who's lived in one of the roughest neighborhoods in America, surrounded by death and poverty.
