Those who have survived the night’s unforgiving darkness cherish basking in the light of dawn, in the warm promise of a new day. Every so often, in the world of music, an act emerges like a beacon of light, proudly proclaiming its uniqueness, its disinterest in the norm, and its potential for sparking a sonic revolution. In 2007, just like with The Fugees and the Black Eyed Peas, a new era in urban music will be ushered in thanks to a group fittingly known as The DEY. Composed of Divine, Élan, and Yeyo (DEY), the bilingual Latino trio fuses hip-hop, R&B, pop, and Afro-Latino influences for a unique, singing/rapping fusion-heavy sound that celebrates Latinos’ rich cultural heritage while also inviting non-Latinos to share in the festivities. Their innovative Epic Records debut promises to unify English-only, Spanish-only, and bilingual Latinos, and to address the interests and concerns of today’s generations of multicultural urbanites.

Each of the group’s members boasts an extensive artistic resume. Puerto Rican MC Divine started rhyming as a young kid living in the South Bronx. He had a strong influence in the underground world of hip hop, earning the public’s respect for his hard-edged rhymes, particularly for the single “Babyface,” which was released in a mixtape. Aside from his growing reputation as a clever lyricist, Divine received accolades within the Latin market due to his work with the Afro-Cuban hip-hop band Yerbabuena, for which he co-wrote the Grammy-nominated “Guajira (I Love You Too Much)
