Thank you for joining me today for Taiwan Grooves. In today's episode, I have the pleasure of welcoming Daniel Black, a rapper who brings a fresh New York perspective to Taiwan's evolving music scene. We will explore how his NYC roots have influenced his sound, his contributions to the diversity of Taiwan's music scene, and how he is giving back to the Taipei community. Additionally, we will discuss the growing rap scene in Taiwan and his collaborations with local artists and beatmakers.
Daniel Black is an artist hailing from Jackson Heights, Queens, NY. His focus with his art so far has been storytelling. Whether the trials and lessons learned growing up in NYC or his travels and seeing how vast and amazingly awesome the world can be. All of that and more can be found in the lyrics of his music.
A lot of his influences do come from the hip hop found in NYC, but his overall love of music ( good music) is where he dives deep and comes back up with something that resonates with him and then makes it his own. From Nas to The Gorillaz, Mr. Black moves through genres looking for inspiration and dope sounds and puts them in the blender that is his mind and hopes you like the result.
