DASAVAGEHIMSELF

Bio//

DaSavageHimself is a rapper born in Portsmouth, VA as “Jordan Queen.” Baby Savage and his family moved to Temple Hills, Maryland in 1996 where he grew up desiring the “rockstar lifestyle;” dreaming and professing owning Lamborghinis and multi-million dollar houses. Savage had dreams of making it to the NFL but inadvertently suffered multiple sports injuries in high school. Not only that, he continued to attract legal problems that encouraged jokes from family members about being a “police magnet.” Most of his charges were only petty charges, until 2018, when he was arrested for drug distribution and possession of illegal weapons.

That’s around the time Savage had his first child, CharMia. Savage exalts her in his music and mentions how he missed valuable moments in her life, like seeing her crawl and eventually learn to walk. CharMia was born in January 2018, but passed away later that year in June. He was still attracting legal drama and battling custody with his child’s mother. When Savage heard of his daughter’s death, he went to a dark place in his mind. It drove him to record his first song, “Die Today.” Savage recorded this song to pour out his frustrations. He shared the song with friends and family and received a lot of great feedback. This marked the start of his music career and landed his first official recording opportunity and live performance with Smooth Doee debuting “Machetes and Magnums” and “2 Minutes.”

Savage quickly fell in love with the rapper life-style as it reminded him of his childhood dream of being a “rockstar.” He went on to release multiple projects and create life-changing partnerships with other artists: one female artist who later gave birth to his son Kash, PashGod and Kor who contributed to over 85K digital streams with their single “Run Down,” and KingSLQ.
