Curtiss King - DIY (ep) by curtissking Biography In this microwave era of Hip Hop music where materialism, misogyny, and half baked compositions flood the airwaves, somehow Dwan Howard has emerged on the scene as an irresistible and well prepared home cooked meal. Better known by his stage name Curtiss King, the son of a college professor dad and author/pianist mom has managed to make a respectable name for himself in Southern Cali by consistently going against the grain as a rapper and producer.

Ain't it crazy how things happen in this life? It doesn't even feel like that long ago we were campaigning to get Murs's attention to be on Paid Dues.
