Donnis

Ladonnis Decurtis Crump (born June 2, 1984), better known by the stage name Donnis, is an American rapper based in Atlanta, Georgia.

His inspiration to begin rapping was sparked by listening to Kris Kross, Kilo Ali, and the Dungeon Family while he was younger.

While on base he began performing and recording music, earning spots opening for such acts as T.I., Chingy, 112, and Erykah Badu.

After roughly 2 and a half years in the Air Force, he stopped so he could finally pursue rapping as a full on career.

I just saw John Mayer and said ‘Wow I hope I can fill up the Garden one day.’ And I watch Kanye and Andre 3000… these people get so much respect and were at one point the underdogs.

"Fashionably Late" was hosted by Clinton Sparks and DJ Ill Will and included guests John Legend, Estelle, GLC, Yelawolf, and Atlanta natives OJ da Juiceman and Pill.

On September 28, Donnis made his major label debut with the Atlantic Records release of the "Fashionably Late EP."
