Spanning genres with his versatile vocals, DC The Don bridges the gap between high-octane rage and moody, melodic pop punk. On his new album, My Own Worst Enemy, DC creates a gripping split personality narrative that dramatizes the clash of styles found in his music. Blending elements of rap, pop-punk, hyperpop, and more, My Own Worst Enemy both expands and refines DC’s sound, allowing the 22-year-old rapper to showcase every facet of his wide-ranging vocal ability. With production by heavy-hitters like JetsonMade, Starboy, Supah Mario, TrademarkCharlie Heat, Astroboy, and more, who deliver DC some of their most adventurous beats, MOW3 percolates with the energy of a young artist testing the limits of what he’s capable of accomplishing–and having fun while doing it.

My Own Worst Enemy tells a loose narrative about DC’s inner conflict, which manifests as a battle between two distinct personalities: RAG3 KIDD, who represents the artist’s more wholesome and romantic side, and DONNY, a demonic, red-haired spitter who emerges on the album’s harder-edged beats. The album kicks off in DONNY mode, featuring some of DC’s hardest tracks to date, including the massive “ENEMIES,” with a beat that sounds like a malfunctioning supercomputer, and the devilish “MAKAVELI,” a fiery lyrical exercise. As the tracklist progresses, RAG3 KIDD makes his presence felt, emoting over candy-coated production on pop culture-referencing tracks like “iCarly :/,” “Scott Pilgrim,” and “Futurama 2099.” With inventive visualizers for each track now viewable on YouTube, MOW3 is available everywhere via Rostrum Records.

Whoever emerges on top the battle between DONNY and RAG3 KIDD, the true winner will be DC’s loyal legion of fans. With My Own Worst Enemy, DC looks poised to expand his fanbase and prove that he’s one of the most versatile artists working.
