Biography

Born and raised in Pendleton, SC, Darius James always had music around him. Darius’ ear for sound and melodies came from his family constantly infusing music into their everyday tasks with his father being the primary influence. Since his father played most instruments in church, Darius gravitated toward the beat of the rhythm – the drums. After receiving a drum set for Christmas at the age of 2, he was determined to play and by the time he was 11, he picked up other instruments and started to create his own sound. Entering high school, Darius was on hiatus from music while playing basketball. When his senior year approached, he realized being an artist was who he really wanted to be. Instead of college, Darius moved to Texas with his aunt and uncle to be closer to his full-time musician friend. She mentored him and taught him everything he needed to know concerning the music industry and production. Since he’s gained much notoriety from posting remixes to popular tracks on his Instagram. The remixes have helped him garner over 1 million streams on YouTube, and have caught the attention and support of today’s heavy hitters Timbaland, Lucky Daye, and Maeta.
