Great Dane

Great Dane


Straight up Great Dane caught my eye with the collabo he was on with Mr Carmack nicely entitled 'Cocaine, with Great Dane'. The name speaks for the track itself with a mere 7 seconds of playing time before Great Dane and Carmack peer pressure you into enjoying a sound that is frankly quite nasty. But lets not get carried away with the negative connotations associated with the word nasty; I mean nasty as in it exceeds all your expectations and leaves your senses numb. Fitting.

Away from the nasties, Great Dane lives out of the Orange County, and at 23 is impressively co-founder of TeamSupreme, a music collective bringing new, independent and quite simply good music to those who want to hear it.

Great Dane's early works are heavy hitting, base inspired Hip-Hop/Trap riddims that would do damage to a club and all its paying customers. More recently however his focus's have shifted towards pushing TeamSupreme, and consequently a huge amount of independently funded artists looking to get their music heard.

Going by his real name Dane Morris, Great Dane is killing that huge emerging US talent pool via TeamSupreme and his own releases. Therefore its safe to say Great Dane is one of the finest ambassadors to riddim providing we have right now.

Salute
