June's Diamond in the Rough

In October of da year 1999 my pops da De-U CEO came up wit an interesting idea 4 a new revolutionary product called "Multiplication Hip-Hop". He & us De-U boys had absolutely no idea at all how popular dis CD would quickly become. We sold these CD's & passed out fliers on many a DMV parking lot & street corner 7 days a week from 9-5 in order 2 fund studio time & 2 pay our bills. Within da 1st couple months of creation & of street sales we already had BET News calling us 4 an interview. From 1999 to da year 2009 we've managed 2 release several more educational Hip-Hop based CD's/DVD's & have moved over 150,000 units off of virtually street sales alone!!! Now days U can still find us in da streets selling if U wanna get dat good ol' De-U discount...lol!!! Our CD's are now also available at most FYE locations in all major urban cities & online as well.

Lately local bamma's been havin' alot 2 talk bout da De-U walk. Some people been acting a lil' confused bout wut it iz exactly dat De-U does or has done besides just make music. Here's some throwback grindin' footage dat may jog U're memory a lil' & dat's sure 2 make da 40. Watt & DMV outsiders feel even more confused...lol!!! Deez joints started out as just a humble way 2 help kids from da hood & keep da studio lights on. We started by sellin' in da K-Mart parkin' lot at Rivertown & ended up in schools, libraries, book stores, & on BET, NPR, & CNBC!!! Make sure 2 go on www.dmvemas.com & vote 4 De-U Records children's department aka "Edu-Basics" for the community service award....deez joints done touched a lotta lives in da DMV & round da world!!!

Wanna Make $100k A Year???

I'm not going to write a long drawn out explaination for the title above or for the Youtube footage below. Just trust & believe that I'm not joke'n, fake'n, or just being a bama try'n to create some hype or buzz. This is a serious job opportunity for professional salesman & street hustlers a like. I gotta six month old daughter myself so trust me I know it's hard out here. That's why I'm doing my part to spread the word & the wealth during these tough times. I'm an extremely giving person who does unto others as I would have them do unto me instead of trying to be off the swindles 24/7. You can read this & take it as a joke if you want...makes no difference to me. Just do me one favor pimp...this time next year remember that De-U.c.e. Double tried to help you get your little pieces of paper together during this so called recession. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink...ya digg!!!

De-U on News Channel 8...

Here's yet another Youtube throwback De-U video I found from way back in 2003. This is probably one the best interviews of the hundreds we've been in over the past couple years because the info is coming straight from the horse's mouth instead of the sly fox's ass...lmfao!!! 2003 was a real popular year for De-U Records as far as national & local press goes. Back then we didn't have any publicists, managers, agents, or promoters & guess what...we still don't. If you know any good people tell em' to holla at ya boy...lol!!! Seriously though we do want some professional representation we're not against it at all, we just can't seem to find anybody who can do any better for us than what we've already accomplished for our damn selves. They say people aren't allowed meetings with major labels without any professional representation...I say some people just aren't trying hard enough...ya digg!!!

BET News Interviews De-U Records...

This is yet another throwback De-U Records Youtube joint. This is from way back in 2001 before it was acceptable to show local luv to DC rappers & producers...way before ya'll were screaming DMV every two seconds like it's a real place on the map or something. Back then niggaz called it what it really is...DC!!! The DMV is a fictional place that only exists in the minds of DC, PG, & Mo Co. natives. Don't get me wrong I understand the connection between the areas & this so called "movement" more than you realize...shit I've made thousands of legal dollars for myself & De-U Records in the D, the M, & the V...have you? My appologies I seem to have got a little off the subject at hand. I'll go into detail alot more on this issue in future blog posts, but for now just watch the damn video you bamas!!!

Schooool!!!...Crank Dat Learning Boy...Schooool!!!...Crank Dat Learning Boy!?!?

In case you didn't get a chance to bring the family out to our live "Multiplication Hip-Hop" concert & stage show last weekend here's a little Youtube footage of what you missed. Everybody enjoyed themselves & we damn near sold out of CD's & refreshments. The second video posted is some throwback De-U press & Dezmo street team footage from when we used to be on the streets selling CD's everyday for at least 8 hours a day. We do small shows with just the music, only one character, & no plot at schools, book stores, & libraries all the time but this was only our second ever full blown concert & play. It was our best turnout yet & we here at De-U Records greatly appreciated all the local support...thanks DMV we love ya'll!!!


P.S. If you're from the DMV & you have kids from pre-school up to middle school & you still don't know about "Multiplication Hip-Hop", Dezmo, or The L-Squad yet...U loafin'!!! Kids love these CD's nationwide & especially in the DMV...ask around. Check us out at our kiosk where we sell them in P.G. Plaza mall. We'll be throwing another kids concert real soon so stay tuned.
