Caught up with this new reggae artist named Shon Dan, from Brooklyn by way of Trinidad. Shon moved here with his family only a few years ago, and began DJ'ing with some highschool friends and at the ripe age of 20. He has already put his first mixtape out alongside his Rebel Irration massive, entitled Fire Era. Check it out here on Dat Piff: (http://www.datpiff.com/Shon-Dan-Fire-Era-mixtape.669905.html) Drawing inspiration from the Most High, and the roots and culture music introduced to him by his father, Shon Dan Rebel is wise beyond his years, and it shows in the lyrical content, full of love and livity. We get a great interview and an exclusive musical session from him here on Shanty Town. Fulljoy this episode - this kid is the future.
