Davidson Pierre, better known by his stage name Black Dada, is a Haitian-American singer, songwriter, and producer. Born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Black Dada was raised in Florida after spending some time in New York. He developed a passion for blending melody and words to create catchy sounds and groovy vibes that resonate with the mind, body, and soul. Black Dada’s passion for music started early in life as he sang in church with his father leading their congregation to songs of praise.
Inspired by R&B, Soul, Jazz, and classical music, he began experimenting with recording by blending tape sounds. Eventually, he interned at a studio in Hollywood to learn the engineering process of recording and producing music. One of Black Dada’s most notable achievements is his legendary song “I’m a Zoe” which landed on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop chart and led him to collaborate with major artists such as Doctor Dre, Eminem, and Gloria Estefan. He is proud of the timeless body of work he has accomplished and aspires to showcase his talents in multiple genres, including Pop, House, Country, Trap Hooks, and R&B, to a global audience.
Black Dada has been featured in numerous media outlets, including hip hop weekly, morning shows, live TV, and various podcasts and magazines such as Ace magazine. He is passionate about music and aims to continue creating and performing at major concert events worldwide, demonstrating his true potential.
Davidson Pierre, a singer and songwriter known as Black Dada, makes sleek anthems for the clubs and streets. A Haitian-American artist based in southeast Florida, Pierre built his profile through independent solo releases and as a hook man on tracks by several area rappers. His “Imma Zoe,” a typically boastful, melodic track, became a local hit and led to a deal with Universal Republic through Strictly Business. The major-label support helped take “Imma Zoe” to number 90 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop chart in September 2009. A few additional singles were released through Universal Republic the following year, but none of them made as much of an impact. Although he subsequently departed from his label, Pierre continued to record solo tracks and hooks.
