Originally from Omaha, Nebraska aka Neblastya, Don Won From D Ville grew up in the Hillside neighborhood of North Omaha infamously known for gang activity, drug dealing and pimping. As Don grew he became more a product of his environment and a great rapper in the corner cyphers around the city. Even though Don was brought up with the right morals and ethics,the lure of the street life seemed more enticing at the time. So in his spare time he began to craft songs and remixing everything on the radio at the age of 9. The first song Don ever learned was "Wild Wild West", by Kool Mo Dee. Don's charismatic wordplay is hugely influenced by artists such as, Kool Moe Dee, Tupac, and Lil Wayne. By the time Don was 13 he was full fledged into a life of hustling, but his hunger and love for music thrived through the turmoil. By his freshman, Don was running away from home to run the streets and record in his friends basement for weeks at a time. So his father relocated him to a group home, Don escaped by moving to Atlanta.
While in the A he attended the same high school as attended by Atlanta-grown supergroup Outkast. Within a year and half Don found himself back in Neblastya only to begin his legal woes at 15. After completing probation successfully, he moved to Las Vegas to start a new life. Don wrote most of his lyrics up until he turned 19. Unless it was a song for another artist, at 23 he stopped writing period! Currently Residing in Las Vegas, Don is the definition of a true hip hop artist. As a founding member of MovemE.N.T and the CEO of Mouph Piese Ent. Don's lyrical versitality shows heavy through his debut mixtape release, "The First 24", which is available on datpiff.com and soundcloud.com right now. Always working and networking and staying adamant at his craft.
