AUDIO: DC THE DON – “Yellow”

Milwaukee’s own DC THE DON continues to prove why he’s one of the most dynamic artists to emerge from Brew City’s hip-hop scene. Born Daijon Cotty Davis, the rapper-singer has dropped “Yellow,” a fresh single that pairs him with fellow rising stars Sajkeena and midwxst for a moody, slow-burning collaboration.

The track immediately sets a laid-back, introspective vibe. Built on a bed of lush, acoustic-leaning production, “Yellow” moves at a deliberate, unhurried pace that lets each artist’s vocals breathe. The energy stays subdued throughout, giving the song an almost hypnotic, dreamy quality that’s perfect for late-night listening sessions. There’s a certain melancholy woven into the track’s DNA—just enough to make it feel emotionally resonant without veering into heavy territory.

For those who’ve followed DC THE DON’s trajectory from his early SoundCloud days to projects like Rebirth and his recent The Rumors Are True EP, “Yellow” showcases his continued evolution. He’s leaning further into the melodic, genre-blending sound that’s earned him a devoted following while staying true to the raw authenticity that first put Milwaukee hip-hop in his rearview mirror as he made moves in Los Angeles.

Sajkeena and midwxst prove to be ideal collaborators here, their voices complementing DC’s style without overcrowding the track. The result is a seamless three-way exchange that feels cohesive rather than cluttered.

Stream “Yellow” now and hear what happens when Milwaukee talent links up with some of the underground’s most exciting voices.
