Milwaukee rapper DC the Don is stepping into a new era with his fourth studio album, Rebirth, which dropped in October. The album marks a significant shift in both his music and personal narrative. DC opens up about his desire to break free from the constraints of his past work and redefine his sound.
“None of my other albums count,” DC declares, making it clear that Rebirth represents a fresh start. The project showcases a wide-ranging soundscape, blending gospel-tinged choir arrangements, indie pop, Afrobeats, punk, and R&B, all while echoing influences from Kanye West’s Yeezus and The Life of Pablo. The rapper embraces a bold new direction, drawing from the music that shaped his childhood and diverging from the Milwaukee sound that’s gained national attention this year, notably through J.P.’s hit “Bad Bitty.”
With tracks like “God Level” and “Fly Enough to Be Virgil,” and collaborations with artists like Hello Forever, Ambré, and Damoyee, Rebirth serves as a musical and personal reinvention. Despite the chaos of politics and Milwaukee’s rising profile, DC the Don is committed to carving his own unique path, one that transcends the political noise and sets him apart from his peers.
