Established in the Bronx and bred on the combination of dreams, ideas and love for something bigger than herself, Donnet thrives not only on creativity but also her melodic vibes and provoking lyrics. All of which can be found on her upcoming mixtape, Mantra Music. A talented musician, Donnet wears multiple hats as the artist, lyricist and producer of her craft.
Donnet's path is a hybrid of sorts of Queen Latifah's wisdom and the originality of Missy Elliot. Musically speaking though, she is a fan of the authenticity put forth by Eve, as well as Nas' style, knowledge and longevity. Her first single, "Part Of Me" garnered national buzz on the likes of Indie Nation Blog, Coast2Coast and ViewHipHop.com due to speaking volumes about police brutality. Her follow up anthem track "Pedigree" speaks to ones character as an emcee & recognizing authentic from fake.
Further developing her love of music Donnet created Don Suave Productions to bring forth that classic New York vibe updated with a twist. Keeping heads bouncing, minds open and hearts lightened, DSP creates that original boom bap with flair. Being a quality songwriter and producer with a well-rounded bag of tricks, Donnet will continue to deliver cutting edge sounds and anthems alike.
BACKGROUND
Having been a songwriter/aritst since the age of 15 it has been one interesting ride. From stepping away from music for a long stretch to reviving the feeling that always existed, it's been on heck of a travel. This emcee decided she didn't want to just create great music, she wanted to create music with a conscious & a soul. So that's what she embarked on doing and with it came quality constructed music. Influenced by the likes of Nas, Jay Z and Lil Kim to name a few, you can vibe the authenticity and appreciate it just the same. As dope sounding tracks are very important the beats put forth are uniquely crafted to enjoyment. Catchy hooks applied and you have a recipe for anthem stardom.

What inspires you to make music?
The pure joy and love for it! There’s nothing in the world like being creative and making something that most can enjoy. Feeling the base line, bouncing to the shakers, tuned in to the lyrics, it creates a vibe. When something is a part of you it defines you.
Tell us about this project?
I created Boom Box Classic which is the return of the boom bap sound with a progressive feel. I wanted to take it back to dope beats and lyrics with a New York vibe. Type of music when you hear the first few bars you automatically know the song it is and you get vibed out.
Like when Benjamins comes on in the club and everyone hits the dance floor. Expect an experience where you won’t skip through but instead listen to each song!
Who were your musical inspirations growing up?
I listened to everyone from Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Isley Brothers & the OJ’s to the likes of KRS 1, Nas, Biggie, & Wu. I just love good music so if it captures me I’m vibing out.
Are You Working On Any New Projects?
Being a producer I will be placing together a series titled ‘Barz on Beatz’ for independent artists looking to rock out to some dope beats. You can visit my site to check tracks available for download.
