D.R.A.M.

The US rapper D.R.A.M. was born Shelley Marshaun Massenburg-Smith in Germany in 1988. The son of a US army servicewoman, he was raised in Hampton, Virginia and had a fairly late entry into the music business releasing his debut EP '#1Epic' in 2015 when he was 27-years-old. The EP featured the single 'Cha Cha' which peaked at number one in Billboard's Bubbling Under Hip-Hop Chart and announced D.R.A.M.'s arrival as an up-and-coming hip-hop talent. The following year he released 'Broccoli' featuring fellow rapper Lil Yachty. The song quickly became an international hit and peaked at number five on Billboard's Hot 100 and paved the way for his critically-acclaimed debut album 'Big Baby D.R.A.M.' which was released later that year. He has been involved in other projects including a collaboration with Damon Albarn's band Gorillaz and also as the voice of Wallace from the US TV series of the same name.
