This is prophecy realized, a soundtrack for kings, queens, and those reclaiming their birthright.
Blending the Black diaspora with lived prophecy, BRTHRGHT crowns DēP as both griot and innovator.
Each track is a ritual — raw, regal, and unforgettable.
This is DēP’s moment of standing fully in his name, his calling, and his artistry. Our stories, our voices, our joy — that is our birthright.
From the opening charge of “Livre Líder” and the unapologetic stance of "Soldier's Revival” and “We Ain’t Gon Run”, DēP establishes that BRTHRGHT is about resilience, revolution, and self-definition. “Master Donald” , an account from his favorite Aunt of where his music interest all began, exposes his rootings as the Live recording “Imma Do Me” echoes his refusal to conform, pairing bold lyricism with live-band energy that translates seamlessly to the stage.
The heart of the record beats strongest in its dualities: songs like “Rehabilitated” and “Soldier’s Revival” confront struggle and rebirth, while “Namesake” and “IMME” explore legacy, identity, and the weight carried in a name. Uplifting anthems like “The Way We Work”, “It’s All Love”, and “Go Get Your Life” remind listeners that joy, unity, and restoration are part of the journey.
BRTHRGHT is DēP’s royal manifesto — a fearless soundtrack of legacy, love, and liberation.
“I don’t just make music — I build experiences. From the crib, to the block, to the stage, I bring culture, spirit, and energy everywhere I go. My gift of consideration Is the root of my connection to people. I curate experiences that go beyond a moment and sticks long after the lights go out." -DēP
3x Grammy Award-winning, 7x Grammy-nominated recording artist, songwriter, and creative visionary DēP returns.
Known for genre-blending artistry, powerful collaborations, and curating cultural experiences that resonate deeply with audiences.
Finally releasing his first concept album, BRTHRGHT more than delivers on what an intentional project from him should feel like.
BRTHRGHT is more than music — it’s a coronation.
From rebel anthems like We Ain’t Gon Run to soul-stirring odes like Farewell Dixie, DēP curates a sonic dynasty.
...from Black to Jew, Soldier’s Revival is more than a song — it’s a covenant between the scattered and the chosen.
At the core of the album lies Soldier’s Revival, a call to unity that speaks directly to the shared experiences of Black and Jewish communities. With lyrics that reject false divisions — “I am not your enemy… it was all just a lie” — the song names the historical strategies used to separate diasporas from themselves and from each other. It then turns toward healing, with a charge to rise, reconnect, and return home.
For Black listeners, it is an affirmation of diasporic wholeness and survival. For Jewish listeners, it echoes the ancestral call of exile and return. Together, the song becomes a bridge of solidarity, urging both peoples to see their struggles mirrored and their futures intertwined.
Fans demanded a visual for “Hoods Off” from the THIS SHIT CAN'T WAIT mixtape. Here it is...click to experience.
...so do everything on purpose.
