DRAM - Gahdamn! (2015)

Rapper, singer, and producer DRAM broke into the mainstream in the summer of 2016 with the playful single "Broccoli," his multi-platinum Top Five hit with Lil Yachty. His fun-loving debut album, Big Baby D.R.A.M., peaked in the Top 20 and invited guests Young Thug and Erykah Badu to his party. In 2017, he received a Grammy nomination for Best Rap/Sung Performance for "Broccoli," and he was recognized again the following year for his collaboration with Gorillaz, "Andromeda."

Born Shelley Marshaun Massenburg-Smith in Landstuhl, West Germany, the Virginia-based artist (whose stage name stands for "Does. Real. Ass. Music.") released his debut mixtape, #1 Epic Summer, in 2014. It featured the single "Cha Cha," a club-worthy cut that was a regional hit. In 2015, he broke on a national scale when Cleveland R&B radio station Z 107.9 FM began playing the cut as their "weekend warmer," a campaign that eventually reached Beyoncé, who shared a video of her own version of the track. With Queen B's co-sign, "Cha Cha" was re-released that year while #1 Epic reappeared as an EP. Following the increased exposure brought on by "Cha Cha"'s success, DRAM released another mixtape, the aptly titled Gahdamn! in October 2015.
