Unveiling the artistry of Dohsi, a Journey from Brooklyn to Atlanta

Dohsi

Hailing from the vibrant streets of Brooklyn, New York, and currently carving his path in the dynamic city of Atlanta, Georgia, Dohsi emerges as a multifaceted artist with a distinct musical identity. In an exclusive interview with Remixd Magazine, Dohsi shared insights into his artistic journey, inspirations, and aspirations.

Reflecting on the meaning of his stage name, Dohsi shared that he had a lengthy thought process. ” In the beginning of my artist journey my initial thought was to go with my first name, Ishmael,” he said. “But after careful consideration, I decided that it was important for me to differentiate from Ishmael the person and Ishmael the artist. My brother, cousin and I
were going back and forth on what my artist name should be and we ended up with
Dohsi. The reverse of Ish O.D which was one of the prior ideas we had. It not only
sounded nice but it actually translates in some languages to Doses (Dosi in Italian),
which I believed described me as a person and as an artist.”

Describing his musical style as versatile and adaptive, Dohsi emphasized the inclusivity of his artistry. “I think there’s something in my music for everybody. Not only in the lyrics and the stories I create but in the melodies,” he explained. Growing up immersed in the eclectic music scene of New York City, Dohsi found inspiration in diverse genres, shaping his unique sound today.

For Dohsi, music isn’t just a passion. Moreover, it’s a lifeline. “Music has always been a part of my life, however, due to the expectations that were put on me growing up, there was a lot of pressure and I was forced to suppress the possibility of becoming an artist,” he revealed. It wasn’t until witnessing his younger brother KaEl pursue music fearlessly that Dohsi found the courage to follow suit. “My brother is my biggest inspiration,” he acknowledged warmly.

Dohsi’s eclectic taste in music, ranging from John Legend to The Script, highlights his open-minded approach to creativity. “I am into good music, no matter the artist, no matter the genre,” he affirmed. This expansive musical palette informs his own artistic expression, enriching his sonic landscape.

With the recent release of his single “Best for You,” Dohsi invites listeners on a journey of introspection. “It’s really about not being phased and wishing the best for someone despite all that you’ve been through,” he shared. Rooted in universal experiences, the song resonates beyond romantic relationships, echoing sentiments of compassion and resilience.

Looking to the future

Looking ahead, Dohsi teased exciting projects on the horizon. “What’s next is more music of course!” he exclaimed. “Right now I’m experimenting and being strategic about what sides of me I want you to hear.” As anticipation mounts, Dohsi reassured fans, “Rest assured the wait won’t be too long and you will be entertained.”

Above all, Dohsi hopes his music serves as a catalyst for personal liberation. “I hope that my music helps you free yourself,” he expressed earnestly. “Whether that’s mentally, physically, or spiritually, I hope my music gets people to a point of comfortability and realness.”

For those eager to embark on this musical journey with Dohsi, he extends a warm invitation. “You can follow me on social media @dohsidos and Dohsi on all music platforms,” he shared enthusiastically.
