DaTBoYZ3L - Danger (Audio) @DaTBoYZ3L



Living in the times we do these days, you just never know what can come your way. Violence and hate is at an all time high while the common folk struggle to survive. "Danger" lurks around nearly every corner, especially in the streets of Jackson, Tennessee where DaTBoYZ3L calls home. The new single is Z3L's lead single to his forthcoming sophomore album, "DaTseason".

The young artist paints a chilling picture of the turmoil he's endured while offering eye opening advice on how to maneuver thru life's strenuous obstacles. Z3L explains that it honestly doesn't matter what your social status, race or gender is, we are all able to fall victim to experiencing dangerous situations. It's up to you to play the game smart and always be aware of your surroundings, never let your guard down.

DaTBoY contracts Letthatboycook once again for the stunning production number that is bursting with soulful energy and bone chilling vocal structures that play like a musical revival. Word also has it that there's a lyrical video soon to follow and even a possible official video later this year. Z3L's not only a talented songwriter and artist, he's also a bonified hustler.

Continuing to build momentum behind his clothing apparel line, #DaTGEAR, he shows no signs of slowing his momentum anytime soon. Tune in to "Danger" on Spotify and Apple Music while keeping a close eye on DaTBoYZ3L in the coming months.

DaTBoYZ3L (@DaTBoYZ3L) Ft Iam2j - Stressing (Single)


We've all reached a point in our lives that we felt defeated. You're left wondering why me, why does it seem like everything is going bad? Some resort to self medicating via alcohol and drugs while others find comfort in prayer. Whatever your choice may be, there's no questioning that life can be overwhelming. Jackson, Tennessee artist DaTBoYZ3L attacks this topic in his newest single, Stressing", produced by Let That Boy Cook.

For those new to ZeL's music, he utilizes harmonizing techniques to his vocals. His multilayered approach gives him a very particulate style full of emotion and soul. "Stressing" is a Hip Hop based record but has hints of Gospel. The song carries a feature from Iam2j, who adds a strong street perspective to Z3L's story line of dealing with daily stress we encounter. At the conclusion of the song, don't be surprised if you find yourself reflecting on your life and throwing a prayer up to the man upstairs.


"Stressing" is the fifth single from "DatBoy", ZeL'3 2016 full length debut. Both the single and album can be streamed courtesy of Spotify.

(Video)-@DaTBoYZ3L "Get Em" Shot By @Its_MyAmbitionN



Tennessee artist DaTBoYZ3L is back with a brand new, SoLoVisualz / Krayfilms directed visual to back his latest single, "Get Em". This is a follow up to his Calvin Ross assisted release, "Don't Be Afraid". In the video, we find the hungry emcee draped up in white and blue garments while marching down The Jackson Walk, which is located behind The Lift Center in Jackson. The beat selected for the audio single features crispy drums, organs, keys and a smooth synth arpeggio that is utilized in the verses and chorus. In the song, Z3L challenges fellow artists to step their bars up and to get back into pushing the envelope of song crafting in Hip Hop.

 Not only does DBZ "Get Em" but he is also joined by a cameo appearance from his mother and some innovative scenes featuring two, white masked females dancing in unison to the beat. Those two disguised ladies also happen to be Z3L's sisters. Incorporating family into the mix is always a plus and shows the song's ability to be received by a wide variety of listeners. "Get Em" will be featured on DBZ's upcoming, self titled EP. Watch the video below.
