A combination of the project’s track titles, ‘Callin’ All My Children’ is a unique mix of Deante’s southern rap roots blended with retro production influences. Hitchcock is joined by Mississippi rapper and producer Big K.R.I.T. and Compton’s Westside Boogie on the track ‘Callin.’ Each artist volleys back and forth on their respective verses over a booming bass line with a seductive R&B hook.
On the second track, ‘All My Children,’ Deante’s rap skills are showcased at their most potent. With his powerhouse lyricism on full display, he poetically raps about his come up as an artist.

He would eventually go on to sign a recording deal with Mark Pitts’ ByStorm Entertainment.

Cole and Dreamville compilation album, Revenge of the Dreamers III (currently RIAA-certified Platinum) after an impressive streak of EPs (Good, So Much for Good Luck, Just A Sample, Just A Sample 2).
