In the English language, the word "Prime" is defined as "of first importance".
One could certainly say that Philadelphian emcee D Prime 215 has christened himself appropriately, as hip-hop has been of first importance in this young man's life since he picked up a pad and pen in 2009.
You can hear the warm, "golden era" sounds of J Dilla, A Tribe Called Quest and hometown heroes The Roots pulsing through his music, but with an updated, current twist.
Prime's held his own on wax with underground veterans like Reef the Lost Cauze, Hezekiah and Has-Lo, and shared the stage with heavyweight names such as Torae and Marco Polo.
His approach is straightforward, his words honest, and his work ethic diligent.
D Prime 215 is on a mission to create songs that stand the test of time, and with his unique blend of the old and the new, he's sure to accomplish just that.
Philadelphia Lyricist D Prime 215 presents the music video for the final song from his "Forever In A Day" (EP) titled single "On Everything".
Over a smooth & cinematic yet knocking production by Mute Won, Prime speaks on what makes him who he is as an artist. Composed of many aspects, but 3 things in particular: Authenticity, Integrity & Philly.
Shot near 30th Street Station & Schuylkill River Trail in Philadelphia, Rekkless Life Films provides the scenic backdrop fitting for the epilogue of D Prime 215's "Forever In A Day" (EP).
