Detroit rapper Dej Loaf has come forward to alert fans she has her own cosmetics collaboration with MAC Cosmetics coming this spring.
Loaf broke the big news to fans across her Instagram page Friday (February 5).
Back in November, soulful singer Erykah Badu admitted Dej’s 2014 “Try Me” single ultimately landed the hip-hop newcomer a spot on her mini-tour.
“I do, that’s my girl,” Badu said referring to liking Dej Loaf. “I just love her. I heard her a long time ago when ‘Try Me’ came out, maybe, a year ago? I’m bad with time. Maybe a year and a half ago, before she popped and I took her with me on a little mini-tour. She opened for me. She was really shy. But the song was so good, I saw something in her. I wanted to share my platform.” (“The Breakfast Club”)
Recently, G-Unit’s Kidd Kidd spoke to SOHH and shared his admiration for Dej Loaf.
“I ran into Dej Loaf back at the XXL Freshmen cover and she’s a cool chick. She’s really down to Earth. She’s just cool. Just recently she was in New Orleans doing a concert and I went to her show to show her love. I’m all the way down. If I f*ck with you and you come to my city, I’m going to come through and hold you down.” (SOHH)
Taylor Gang’s Chevy Woods recently spoke to SOHH about giving Dej some tour advice.
“For me, I told her the same thing for people that ask me [about stage presence] this story. I went to college for a year, and I never thought that the things that I learned in that year I would use musically. So when it’s like, 15-20,000 people, you don’t have to catch eye contact with everybody. Speaking on a podium and giving a lecture in class, I would just look at people’s foreheads and the tops of their heads and it looks like I’m looking at them. So if you feel nervous, you do that. But if you don’t feel nervous, you come into your own, so, “Okay, I can stare at this person and their group of people, Taylor Gang, or whatever it is.”” (SOHH)
