Danny! Discography
Danny!, also known as D. Swain, is an American rapper, producer and composer. In a five-year period, he has self-released twelve albums, which include five full-length albums, an EP, three instrumental albums and even a greatest hits compilation. Though signed to Definitive Jux in early 2007, the self-proclaimed "prolific producer/ MC" never released an album with the label. Instead, selected tracks from Danny!'s discography—all previously released on his vanity Badenov Records/1911 Music imprint—have been made available as a free download on Def Jux's revamped website, which boasts an extensive digital download section. A single titled "Just Friends" came out in March 2009 and is Danny!'s first, and to date only, official Def Jux release. The artist would later sign to Interscope Records to little fanfare, in the wake of '' Where Is Danny?''s success in 2010. He left Interscope the following year and signed to the re-launched Okayplayer Records in 2012, releasing ''Paybac ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Danny!
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pro ...

Dream, Extinguished
''Dream, Extinguished'' is an instrumental hip hop album by American producer/rapper Danny! It is the third and allegedly final installment in Danny's famed ''Dream...'' instrumental series and, like its predecessors, bears Danny's anthroponym on its cover—an ominous all-black sleeve—rather than his stage name in an effort to distinguish himself from Daniel Swain the record producer and Danny!, his rapper alter ego. Originally intended for an April release, ''Dream, Extinguished''s date was moved forward to January 29 to compensate for the unforeseen delay of '' And I Love H.E.R.'', his fifth studio album. Unlike the first two entries in the ''Dream...'' trilogy, a promotional tagline for ''Dream, Extinguished'' does not exist. Cancellation and subsequent release A mere day before it was set to be released to the market in 2008, ''Dream, Extinguished'' was withdrawn by Danny himself, much to the surprise of anticipating fans. For reasons unknown Danny abandoned the enti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dream, Fulfilled
Danny!'s second instrumental hip hop album, ''Dream, Fulfilled'', was released on April 23, 2007 (see 2007 in music) under the American rapper/ producer's 1911 Music/Badenov Records imprint. The record is a sequel to Danny's 2006 instrumental album '' Dream, Interrupted'' and, like its predecessor, was initially released under Danny's birth name ( Daniel Swain) solely in the United Kingdom for reasons still undetermined. The album cover, as well as the tray card and artwork contained within the liner notes, features various photographs of Ugandan youth. Overview ''Dream, Fulfilled'', like ''Dream, Interrupted'' before it, begins with an excerpt from "Cry Of A Dreamer" by The Sylvers. The album's tagline -- "23 years. 23 ''more'' beats. One man. One hour. One destiny."—also bears similarities to that of ''Dream, Interrupted''. The tagline is once again misleading as "Intro" is not an instrumental, giving ''Dream, Fulfilled'' a total of 22 full-fledged beats. Danny has lo ...

Dream, Interrupted
''Dream, Interrupted'' is an instrumental hip hop album by American rapper/ producer Danny!, and the fourth release under Danny's personal 1911 Music/Badenov Records imprint. ''Dream, Interrupted'' was released exclusively in the United Kingdom (under Danny's birth name, Daniel Swain) on August 14, 2006 (see 2006 in music) prior to seeing a stateside release the following year. Overview Prior to the release of ''Dream, Interrupted'', Danny had released three studio albums (''The College Kicked-Out'', '' F.O.O.D.'' and ''Charm'') that showcased both his rapping and his production skills; ''Dream, Interrupted'' helped shift the spotlight solely on Danny's production. Presumably, the record was released under Danny's full name in an effort to distinguish himself from Danny!, his rapping alter ego. The title itself is an allusion to Danny's well-publicized 2006 "retirement" in which he decided to briefly discontinue, or "interrupt", his long-time goal, or "dream", of hitting it ...

Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Originality is the aspect of created or invented works that distinguish them from reproductions, clones, forgeries, or substantially derivative works. The modern idea of originality is according to some scholars tied to Romanticism, by a notion that is often called romantic originality.Smith (1924)Waterhouse (1926)Macfarlane (2007) The validity of "originality" as an operational concept has been questioned. For example, there is no clear boundary between "derivative" and "inspired by" or "in the tradition of." The concept of originality is both culturally and historically contingent. For example, unattributed reiteration of a published text in one culture might be considered plagiarism but in another culture might be regarded as a convention of veneration. At the time of Shakespeare, it was more common to appreciate the similarity with an admired classical work, and Shakespeare himself avoided "unnecessary invention".

Charm (Danny! Album)
''Charm'' is the critically acclaimed third studio album from American rapper/record producer Danny!, and the first of his records to be released commercially. As evidenced in the title, ''Charm'' was a huge milestone in Danny!'s career; after two unsuccessful attempts to make a name for himself in the music world (2004's ''The College Kicked-Out'' and 2005's '' F.O.O.D.''), the record unanimously won rave reviews, culminating in the inclusion of the album on the 49th Annual Grammy Awards short list and, eventually, a record deal with Definitive Jux Records. Widely regarded as one of the strongest entries in his discography (rivaled by 2008's '' And I Love H.E.R.''), ''Charm'' helped Danny! achieve a moderate buzz in the underground hip-hop community and become South Carolina's most heralded hip-hop artist to date. The song "Cafe Surreal" from this album would go on to become a signature tune in commercial bumpers for the MTV early morning video countdown program aMTV, being ...
