Artist description FEBRUARY 15, 2000: The day that DAN-E-O has waited for his entirelife. Funded completely his own pockets thanks to various part-time jobs,DAN-E-O's debut album THE BOOK OF DANIEL, is released. "There weredays that I thought this would never happen", admits DAN-E-O, "but Itruly believe that God has blessed me with the gift of articulation. He hasalso given me a place within the hip-hop culture, so I consider it my dutyto use my gifts to give to others". And how! The 18-track, 70 minute plus LPis a perfect display of the matured, witty and intricate rapper thatDAN-E-O has become. Considered to be the chapters of his life story,each song on THE BOOK OF DANIEL, is made "with the intent to provoke somethought, to change a lot of the negativity that exists. Whether it be wacklyrics or poor treatment of your fellow brothers and sisters". Among thesesongs are the three that made up DAN-E-O's debut 12" triple releasedthis past October. "Revenge", "Margerine" and the powerful and innovative"Corrida De Toros".
