Biography

Dutch-Surinamese rapper, born 31 May 1988 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. For the heavy metal band, please use [a=Dio (2)]. Born in Amsterdam and raised without his father who left the family at his birth, Dio first made waves as a rapper in a duo with rapper Darryl knows as Dubbel D. Their 2004 single "Minderjarig" got the attention of [a=Kees de Koning], who wanted to sign the duo to [l=TopNotch]. However Dio was still underage, and his mother refused to sign the contract. Kees signed Darryl, and the group fell apart a year later. In 2006, Dio was featured on the mix tape of Nino: Transmigratie 1, with the song "O Ik Heb Me Nikez". In 2007 he started making more cameo appearances, featuring on albums by The Opposites, Sef (of Flinke Namen), Reverse and De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig. In 2008 he featured on the title song for the motion picture film "Alibi", also featuring on The Partysquad's full length album. On 28 November 2008, Dio released his first full length album "Rock & Roll" on TopNotch.

LYRICS

Yeah gypsy she was straight from hell but you never could tell 'cause you were blinded by her light
She could crack your brain with magic pain and turn a paler shade of white
Well I was on the free just me and me and just about to sail
When I heard the voice said you got a choice the hammer or the nail
You'll be ridin' you'll be ridin' on the gypsy on the gypsy
Well I rolled the bones to see who'd own my mind and what's within
And it's a given rule that we're all fools but need to have a little sin huh
So I'm ridin' well I'm ridin' on the gypsy on the gypsy queen
Well she was straight from hell but you never could tell 'cause you were blinded by her light
So she cracked my brain with magic pain and turned my left around to right right
So I'm ridin' I'm still ridin' yes I'm ridin' on the gypsy on the gypsy queen
She's mean ridin' on the gypsy yeah yeah yeah yeah
