Donte Harrison, aka Vision Tha Dreamer, was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. Despite battling stigmas for wanting to pursue music at a young age, he still went on to follow his passion. This resulted in him attending Boston Arts Academy for music with a concentration in voice. He also enhanced and showed off his skills in the Berklee City Music High School Academy program.
Vision Tha Dreamer is more than a rapper. Overall, his musical training has prepared him to sing and rap in various genres, like gospel, choir, hip-hop, R&B, and more. His production skills are amazing as well.
Growing Up in the Boston Music Scene
During my interview with Vision Tha Dreamer on the Diggity Dom x Artist Series, he spoke on how Boston influences his music. Firstly, he mentioned putting his trauma on display by “making light of a hard situation.” Being a young black man in America comes with extra obstacles that are faced every single day. But, Donte decides to stand up to the heat through his lyrics and physically protesting for change in his community. Secondly, he speaks about his come-ups in some of his projects. Through it all, he believes people should be uplifted and reminded of the positives in life.
Also, he makes time to collaborate with his fellow artists in Boston like Indo-Soul and Ko-Mai. In 2020, they put out a video for their song “Fuck 12,” which speaks about the inequality in the social justice system. Despite Boston having an old rep of lack of support, Vision Tha Dreamer and his peers are trying to change that narrative. Most importantly, he believes everyone needs to have each other’s backs so we can grow together. Overall, we all have to eat!
Present and Future Moves
Recently, he released a music video for his hit song “OG.” Currently, he is in the process of working on his Vol. 2 album. His prime focus right now is creating music and working on generating revenue to expand his brand and artistry. All in all, he has always been extremely determined to follow his passion and support his peers in the process.
5 years from now he hopes to be a successful touring artist. His dream is to live comfortably and see the world. Through his hard work and determination, his music will get him there. Make sure you follow and stream all of Vision Tha Dreamer’s fire music today!
