About Dun Deal

Born 1986. Dun Deal is an American record producer, songwriter and rapper.

David Maximillian Cunningham (born August 19, 1986), known professionally as Dun Deal, is an American record producer, songwriter and rapper. He is best known for producing A$AP Mob's hit single "RAF", Young Thug's single "Stoner" and Migos' single "Hannah Montana". He had a studio in downtown Atlanta and was working with a production team called Planet 9. In October 2013, Deal was included on Complexs list "25 New Producers To Watch For". The list author Craig Jenkins commented that "his beats [are] the emotional focal points of whatever album he's on, and his restless versatility ensures we'll be hearing his name a lot more in the years to come." In January 2014, Deal, among his team HPG, was also included on FACTs "10 hip-hop producers to watch in 2014". FACT authors Chris Kelly and John Twells stated that "the group's sound defined 2013 with a diverse set of productions".

In early 2014, Young Thug's "Stoner", produced by Deal, got mainstream popularity, and peaked at number 47 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also spawned a number of unofficial remixes by rappers, such as Wale, Jim Jones, Jadakiss, Iamsu! and Trick-Trick. Deal, who has been working with Young Thug, since the rapper was 16 years old, revealed that it took him 15 minutes to create the instrumental for "Stoner" and Thug recorded the whole song in another 15 minutes, mostly freestyling. Deal is also working on a compilation mixtape, called BASS (Below a Silver Sky), which is set for a release during 2014.

that same year he sign 2 young producers Isaac Flame and Goose who produced, 9 tracks of Rich Gang: Tha Tour Pt. 1 Mixtape Rich Gang: Tha Tour Pt. 1 in 2015 he partnered up with P.Kaldone Ceo of MafiaSoul Records LLC, and the 2 opened a studio in Atlanta alongside fame producer Bangladesh, where they started developing young artist such has Ray Moon Vory, Kellz, who's currently sign to Kobalt Music Publishing, and Arius who on June 15, 2017, released her first EP "Pandora's Box”.

Musical style Gabriel Herrera of Vice described Deal as "a driving force behind a number of huge hits on the southern mixtape circuit, Top 40 radio, and everything in between." In an interview with MercyHope, Deal commented on his musical growth, saying: "there was a certain sound I felt like I was missing when I first started. And the more I did it every day, I started to catch that formula to make those type of songs where they could be on the radio."

Deal uses Logic Studio to create his music, and sometimes also plays live instruments: a guitar, a grand piano and drums. Like many hip-hop producers, Deal uses a musical signature on the instrumentals he creates, which consists of the phrase "Dun Deal on the Track", followed by a pitched-up vocal effect. The tag was originally recorded by Skool Boy from the Rich Kidz. 2013
