Papa Don aka carmoenottiwas born in Oakland March 19, 1981. At a very young age he fell in love with music. By the age of 13 Don created his own style of hiphop. One could say his style is a twist between Bay Area Rap/hyphy/R&B /Club. As he grew older and realized he wanted music to be his profession he started his own independent record company called 'Hoodstar records'.Since 2003 he has produced two of his own albums.His first album 'Living Life'is a hip hop/rap/hyphy album with 12 banging tracks that the streets are absclutly loving. He has maintained a positive outlook on life and has stayed out of trouble by focusing on his music. He made his bread and butter by selling his cd's on the streets of SFC Oakland and other neighboring hoods. Don't wait, purchase his first album, Living life at www.cdbaby.com/papadon.
