As a poet, lyricist and songwriter, Donovan "Dizmal" Williams has never stopped progressing. Growing up in the South Shore of Montreal, he took in the R&B sounds of groups such as Jagged Edge and Dru Hill. But after moving to Toronto at the age of 10, his passion for music began to grow even more and he came to appreciate the art of hip hop, in all its various forms. From listening to artists like Nas, Mobb Deep, Wu-Tang, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, and his older cousin Brandon aka Silas of Unknown Elementz, he has been able to create a sound that is closely related to his influences, yet still uniquely his own.
On Friday, February 27th 2009 Dizmal will be releasing his 3rd studio mixtape titled "The Growth". Its been almost 2 years since the last mixtape, and he's finally ready for more.
The cd features production by Studder, Michael Durante, Kyle Potter, and Silas. With appearances by Teddy, Michael Durante, Peter Jackson, ASAP and Di Rosa.
