Independent Artist D-Wrath Brings Experimental Hip Hop and R&B Mixtapes to Life

Rapper D-Wrath is breaking through the noise of the saturated music industry with his unique blend of experimental hip hop and R&B.

Bronx NY, New York —With a string of captivating mixtapes and an unwavering passion for his craft, D-Wrath is ready to introduce himself to the world and captivate listeners with his exceptional talent.

D-Wrath, whose real name is David Melendez, embarked on his musical journey in 2008 in the Bronx, New York. Collaborating with a friend, they formed a dynamic duo and immersed themselves in freestyling and battling other local artists. However, financial hardships led to the dissolution of the group in 2010, leaving D-Wrath determined to pursue a solo career.

Over the next few years, D-Wrath honed his rap skills and released his first mixtape, “The Dilemma Pt. 1,” in October 2012. This free mixtape showcased his versatility as he skillfully rapped over beats from major artists, garnering attention from local producers. In 2015, D-Wrath signed his first single but parted ways with the producer due to creative differences, leading him back to square one.

Undeterred by the setbacks, D-Wrath continued to make his mark in the music industry. He collaborated with inner-city artists, featured on their tracks, and released a series of mixtapes, including “The Dilemma Pt. 2” in May 2021 and “The Lost Star Mixtape Pt. 2” in October 2021. His dedication and talent gained momentum, culminating in the release of “The Dilemma Pt. 3” in June 2022, featuring an impressive collection of 30 freestyle tracks.

With each release, D-Wrath has been steadily building a buzz in the music scene. Despite facing a setback in 2022 due to a stomach ulcer, he bounced back with a renewed determination and released “Revenge Season Vol. 1” in September 2022. Now, D-Wrath is gearing up for his upcoming releases, “The Dilemma Pt. 4” and “The Lost Star Pt. 4,” scheduled for May 2023.
