As an influential hip hop dancer and choreographer in Chicago beginning in 2011, DLow (f/k/a “The Bop King”) is one of the originators of Chicago Bop Culture. His independently released singles “DLow Shuffle” in 2013 and “Do It Like Me’ in 2015 led to an Atlantic Records/Warner Music Group recording contract and a platinum selling hit and EP release in 2018. His major label releases and subsequent independent releases to date have led to an impressive 1 billion streams across all platforms, where DLow commands a significant streaming ad social media presence with 52,000 monthly Spotify listeners, 238,000 Instagram followers, 662,000 TikTok followers, 50,000 Facebook subscribers, and 390,000 YouTube subscribers, totaling 1.3 million followers. DLow stands for Determined, Loyal, Optimistic, and Willing to Learn. His popularity skyrocketed largely through his own ingenuity as an independent artist and hip hop dancer, with the “Do It Like Me Challenge” video on YouTube which he released independently, achieving 1 million views in two weeks and 4 million in a month.
