Paragon Don is a rap artist based out of Winston-Salem, NC and a part of the label “steady:hyperactive”. He’s been written about in prominent blogs such as “Lyrical Lemonade” and “OnThaRize Mag”. He has cited some of his influences to be Saba, Michael Christmas, and Tobi Lou but also the city around him and the interactions with the people that shape his life. Although Winston-Salem has never had the biggest of music scenes, he has still been able to thrive not only performing at local events in surrounding areas but curating events with his label as well (Steady:Hype Night, Bloom and Buds). With “Last Year Local” under his belt Paragon Don has seemed to find a blend of creating fun loving music with hard hitting metaphors while still being able to keep his audience attentive wondering what could possibly be said next
