What It Do With The LUE: Young Miller Da Don

By Lou Dowdy

(EMPIRE NEWS NETWORK (ENN)— Making Moves in the rap game is What It Do! Rapper Young Miller Da Don is making sure that that world knows about his music and his movement.

When on social Media, I see this artist consistently networking, performing and promoting; all important ingredients when it comes to staying relevant in the music industry. Though the original No Limit soldiers are no longer on the front lines, the second generation of troops are still holding down the fort.

Raised in the ranks of one of Hip-Hop’s most powerful clans, Douglas Michael Miller (a.k.a. Young Miller Da Don) is now taking the family business to higher heights. The 27-year-old Cousin of Master P, Young Miller says that growing up with the No Limit Records CEO (Master P) taught him how to survive and be a winner in the entertainment business.

After being robbed at gunpoint in his hometown, his mother decided New Orleans wasn’t the place for him. Leaving the Calliope Projects at age 12, Don went to live with his uncle Master P, who’s also his mentor. Master P showed Don the ropes which gave him an awareness about the ins and outs of the industry. It was a difficult adjustment for Don due to the language barrier and new school, but he survived.

Having penned his own poetry and rhymes since age 10, Young Miller reunited in L.A. with his cousins, including Master P’s son ‘Lil Romeo’; under P’s tutelage, they formed a rap group called ‘ Rich Boyz’.

Independently releasing their only LP, “Young Ballers”—“The Hood Been Good to Us”, in 2005 the group toured briefly and even appeared on 106 & Park. Unfortunately, Hurricane Katrina hit that same year and halted promotional plans for the group. With the band now disbanded, Young Miller is determined to make his mark as a solo MC. Don – “I will succeed by keeping my family morals and values first.” Catch my reviews of talented artists like Don Miller right here. Until Next week L’z!
