Deacon Dy-Dy – Dy-Shawn SimpkinsOnce a repeat offender of the law turned spiritually enlightened emcee, Deacon Dy-Dy is an exception to the rule in terms of being an example of the potential parallel one’s life can take after a wakeup call. Living life being locked in a cell for years at a time which for civilians, often move at a rapid speed - but for those in the prison system slowly creep by the millisecond. Dy-Dy grew up in East Orange, New Jersey with natural athletic talents that were certain to provide a segue to a college education and promising professional athletic career in the NFL.“I went left around my sophomore year. I was on second string varsity as a sophomore and as a result of me playing first string against one of the number one three-year undefeated teams in the nation. They put me on to tie or win that extremely tight game and I ended up scoring a number of touchdowns. After that, Notre Dame recruiters had their eye on me and came to a lot of my games thereafter. I was only a sophomore!
