Dan Marcus, Recording Artist
“It is a short film and it encompass two music videos. I don’t want to give away the concept but it is cleverly disguised as a love theme. But the whole concept is to reach in and create some awareness of certain issues. The new project is entitled ‘The Life and Times of Dan Marcus’ and it also has a second name ‘Ms Maryann Last Son’ and that is really the concept of the whole album is me speaking about my upbringing and the values my mother instilled in me and how it has affected me positively in an environment that is basically negative.”

“Why are you bringing this out at such a critical time – especially in the City’s fight against crime and is it to motivate the young people here?”
Dan Marcus
“Yes. I think we need it now more than ever because we just sick ah crime. Every time I watch the news and see the crime I feel so bad about it and I will do what I can in my capacity as an artist fi use my art to positively impact youths as much as I can. Because I feel like ever since I was an influential person…positively impact other people.”
