Denmark Vessey
Denmark Vessey is a hip-hop artist from Detroit. Combining raw, truthful lyrics with booming golden age-era production, he formed Crown Nation with Quelle Chris.

Vessey began releasing solo mixtapes in 2012, and he collaborated with Scud One for the 2013 full-length Cult Classic on Dirty Science. Following his 2015 instrumental release The Gift, Vol. 9, he teamed up with Gensu Dean for the 2016 full-length Whole Food on Mello Music Group.
