Dej Loaf Takes Jeremy Deputat on a Visual Journey Through Detroit

Riding the wave as the mastermind behind the smash hit “Try Me,” Dej Loaf joins the legion of new Detroit artists giving international voice to an otherwise under-represented city. Here HYPETRAK tracks back to the Motor City with the artist – neé Deja Trimble – teaming up with photographer Jeremy Deputat to take us through her hometown. The visual journey is a unique balance of soundbite testimony and photography, with Dej leading a tour around the most impactful places in the D. Starting in her childhood room, we venture through to Southeastern High School, Collective Studios – where she recorded most of Sell Sole, and even the notorious White House nightclub.
