Another trapalicious banger from Baltimore County's Don Demenace, but this one is a bit different than "Snapchat Thot". Where the latter song has a repetitive, Migos-type of swag, "Own It" (featuring Baltimore City's 410Zo) has the swift-sounding autotune drenched vocals of a typical chart topping hit. The lyrics of these two Maryland MC's however, are deeply rooted in the essence of hip-hop. Don's lyrical prowess is demonstrated with multiple rhyme sequences that are displayed throughout his entire contribution to the song. Even with the hook, lines like: "shots to my opponents" rhyme perfectly with: "pop it so I'm rollin'". Don's damaging verse is full of braggadocios swag, while also inserting a nerdy and conscious message not unlike Maryland's own Logic. 410Zo kills the second verse with quick punch lines, subliminal shots, and a serious flow in his Baltimore accent. The beat for "Own It" is off the chain too. It is unclear who the producer is, but whoever it is gets the job done. Check it out now and put your friends on to this new fire from the home of The Wire.

Below are the reasons why you should check my song "Marilyn Monroe". Excuse the hashtags, I copied these reasons from my Instagram posts over at @dondemenaceig. I was going to write an article about this, (a legit one) but I do not have time and decided to make an amazing list instead. RNS! Reasons below:



1. IT'S A RADIO FRIENDLY UNIT SHIFTER (Nirvana reference.)
This song was made to see if I could make a song for the radio, but still maintain that artistic integrity as far as my lyrics. The result was this song. Need to feel better? Take a quick listen to "Marilyn Monroe".



2. THE ARTIST (... Of the Artist's [ME] Single Cover.)
@rachcmiller87 (IG handle) , she is the artist who illustrated this unique Marilyn Monroe Medusa design I thought up. She blew my mind when I saw it.



3.  IT'S JUST GOOD (Really, I tried hard on this song: lyrics, production, paying for singer, etc.)
This song is one of the best songs I've ever released. Most of my stuff is on some #shockrap or some #underground stuff, but with this, I went above and beyond on making a song with a radio-friendly hook and a catchy beat.



4.  THE VIDEO WILL BE AMAZING (Coming soon?)
I will be shooting a music video for "Marilyn Monroe" as I will for most of the songs from "GIRLS". I may take inspiration from #Drake and have a heartfelt song with a music video featuring half naked women... Maybe not, we'll see. #baltimore #maryland #medusa #marilyn #monroe #marilynmonroe #hiphop #rap #single



5. THE STRUGGLE (Of finding a singer who actually isn't flaky and wants to sing with you :)
I tried for almost 5 years to find a steady singer. One to sing hooks for me, vocalize and other things to match the ideas in my head. After five years of flaking, bluffing and more, I finally found one and she sings on this song. Check out "Marilyn Monroe" on iTunes or #soundcloud #audiomack #youtube #datpiff #baltimore #marilyn #marilynmonroe #maryland #music #freemusic #hiphop



6. IT WAS ALL A DREAM (Biggie reference)
The beat for this song came to me one night in a dream corny as it sounds. I had the visualization for the video and everything. I had to hum the melody in my head until I was able to get to my computer to make the instrumental. #musicproducer #marilyn #marilynmonroe #baltimore #monroe #music #freedownload #datpiff #audiomack #youtube #soundcloud #itunes #hiphop #rap



7. IT'S DIFFERENT (It's a pop/rap song that is made by a horrorcore/experiemental MC, what can go wrong!?)
This song is a break away from my usual horrorcore or party songs, like most of the tracks on "GIRLS". #baltimore #marilyn #monroe #marilynmonroe #hiphop #rap #maryland #music #freemusic #datpiff #audiomack #youtube #itunes



8. IT'S ABOUT MY MOM (Girls say: "aw" here.)
"A heartfelt tribute to mothers everywhere, DON Demenace provides a lyrical and soulful contribution. Created with all moms in mind, this song is dedicated to his own."

Listen to "Marilyn Monroe" by Don Demenace [prod. by Don Demenace] below:

Shot by Don himself, this video is the result of his 10 hour trek to T-Hill, Canada. After meeting with online collaborator of 7+ years, Crackerjack, they shot this video and released it a month later.





Get the mixtape that started DON on a new sense of writing, lyrical metaphor arrangements and concepts never explored before. Synopsis below:
