Happy Birthday: Dana Dane & C.I.T.Y.

For a long time, Dana Dane (born Dana McLeese) has been a huge voice in the world of Hip-Hop having his debut album Dana Dane With Fame to peak at #46 on the Billboard album chart and was certified gold. His biggest hit was "Cindefella Dana Dane", which peaked at #11 on the Billboard R&B chart in 1987.

Dane's career began with the Kangol Crew with fellow MC, Slick Rick. He was also known for his sense of style in fashion and imitating a British accent while rapping. He opened a clothing store in the 1980's and also is a published author with a book titled Numbers, a tough, gritty fiction novel about life in the streets, which was released in 2009.

Dane still performs around the world and also on-air hosts Sirius/XM Satellite Radio on its old school hip-hop channel BackSpin. For more info, log on to Dana Dane's Official Website.

He's always willing to expand in his craft by pushing the limits and genres. Having come from a rich history in music, be on continuous lookout for this Houston implant who's a native of New Orleans.
