Southern Plug Magazine: Leaders of the New School ft Remy Ma Volume 2 Issue 1 C | Page 58

An Atlanta MC who hit before he released his first
mixtape, Dae Dae knew he had a hit the moment
he wrote "Wat U Mean (Aye, Aye, Aye)." The rapper
had spent time in the studio, but never allowed his
music to be heard by the public until 2015. He was
working construction when he decided "Wat U
Mean (Aye, Aye, Aye)" would be his debut track,
and when it dropped in late 2015, it became a
regional hit. In 2016, after Young Dro jumped on the
remix, it became a national summer hit. Dae Dae
signed with 300 Entertainment that same year and
released his 4 Reasons mixtape. Subsequent singles
"Dej Loaf" and "Spend It" arrived later that year
with the latter receiving a remix by Young Thug and
Young M.A. in late 2016. Dae Dae kicked off 2017 by
dropping the DJ Spiz-assisted single "Dem Days."
