De’Leon is a Central Florida based singer, songwriter and
producer who is no stranger to the music industry. He has previously graced
your ears with hits like "Private Dancer," "Go Girl" and "Don't Fall 4 Me" under the name D. Jackson.
After spending a few months in the kitchen, he has whipped up some hot new R&B
music.
I got a chance to chat with De’Leon this week and ask him
about his recent name change.
He expressed that the name “De’Leon” is a combination of his
first name Drake, and middle name Leon. On a deeper level, the name change
represents a new phase in his personal life and as an artist.
De'Leon said:
“Before, I was giving the people what they wanted to hear,
but now I’m making new R&B music that I truly love.”
We are definitely able to hear that passion and love inside
of his new single, “Fuckin Liar.” De’Leon also shared with us, his inspiration
behind creating this song.

“We always hear the female point of view on relationships,
and how men dog them out. I found it important to share my point of view, so people
know that not all men are dogs. Women need to know that there are still good
men out there.”
De’Leon doesn’t only find inspiration from his past
experiences, but he’s also inspired by some of the top male R&B artists in
the industry. Some of his favorites include Marvin Gaye, Prince, Tank, Jamie
Foxx, and D’Angelo.
“Fuckin Liar” is just a preview of what is to come for the
rest of the year. De’Leon stays active in the industry by writing and producing
new R&B music for other artists as well. Coming soon is his highly
anticipated mix tape, The Butterfly
Effect. Until then, check out the video and let us know what you think of
“Fuckin Liar.”

Jacques great review about this artist, he definitely has an outstanding musicality. It is true that he leaves his feelings in this song, it is interesting to hear how his voice shapes a simple tune with few elements, harmony and melody blend together perfectly in this case. There are only few artists that can generate an impact on the listener the first time you hear their music. De'Leon's new single caught my attention right away. I agree with De'Leon when he states that "music is the ultimate form of expression", and I believe it helps to overcome bad moments. Music sounds better when artists leave their emotions recorded in great songs. As a musician I have to add that the guitar player could be better, his sense of tempo and musicality is not as good as De'Leon but anyway the song and video made up a great product.
