BIO

DBangz (Darius Lewis, 17) began rapping about three years ago in his hometown of Pheonix, Arizona. In December 2016, he released a lewd cut called “Fuck it Up,” which became his first track to crack 10,000 streams. One month later, “Booty Toe Sucker” broke 100,000 plays.

On Dec. 17, 2017, a song about foot fetishism and porn streaming sites topped Spotify’s Viral 50 Global chart at #1. Edging out smash hits like G-Eazy and Halsey’s “Him & I” and Ed Sheeran and Beyoncé’s “Perfect Duet” was “Thick Niggas and Anime Tiddies,” a meme rap cut by a Phoenix teen named DBangz. The song which features outrageous lyrics like, “I love me some hentai, I go on XVideos/Bitch, I'm DBangz, stick my dick in your Cheerios” remained in the top 10 for three weeks, touching the No. 1 spot again on Christmas Eve. Across platforms, it’s been streamed more than 32 million times to date. With a tons of "Reaction videos" across YouTube from random listeners, Vloggers, Fans and Hip Hop Critics.

“Thick Niggas and Anime Tiddies.” first released to SoundCloud back in July 2017 over a CashMoneyAP beat. And while it maintained momentum throughout year, the track began to skyrocket once it hit the front page of Reddit in November. At the end of 2017, it dominated Spotify’s Viral charts in several countries (including the U.S.) thanks to DBangz’s faithful following, growing audience and ridiculous song title. “All of these meme pages were posting my stuff and just blowing the song up even more,” he says. “Who don't like anime titties?”

His song “Thick Niggas and Anime Tiddies” has contributed to some controversy outside of the music world, too. Italian makeup company Wycon Cosmetics faced criticism for naming a line of nail polish, “Thick as a Nigga.”, the company released an apologetic statement, citing DBangz's unlikely hit as an inspiration.

DBangz is making the most of the traction that “Thick Niggas and Anime Tiddies” has sparked. He’s finished putting the final touches on his newest single "Last Claim", which dropped May 11th 2018, to huge notoriety and success, still climbing the charts in its early release. A fast, super lyrical song that he raps in double time the entire record.
