Danny!, also known as D. Swain, is an American rapper, producer and composer. In a five-year period, he has self-released twelve albums, which include five full-length albums, an EP, three instrumental albums and even a greatest hits compilation.

Though signed to Definitive Jux in early 2007, the self-proclaimed "prolific producer/MC" never released an album with the label. Instead, selected tracks from Danny!'s discography—all previously released on his vanity Badenov Records/1911 Music imprint—have been made available as a free download on Def Jux's revamped website, which boasts an extensive digital download section. A single titled "Just Friends" came out in March 2009 and is Danny!'s first, and to date only, official Def Jux release.{{cite news|title=Danny!: Just Friends 12 |url=http://www.definitivejux.net/store/catalog-product/US-V2X-08-057-00.html |publisher=Definitive Jux.net |date=March 17, 2009 |accessdate=March 19, 2009 |url-status=usurped |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090323075305/http://www.definitivejux.net/store/catalog-product/US-V2X-08-057-00.html |archivedate=March 23, 2009 }}

The artist would later sign to Interscope Records to little fanfare, in the wake of Where Is Danny?{{'}}s success in 2010. He left Interscope the following year and signed to the re-launched Okayplayer Records in 2012, releasing Payback on September 25. In 2016 he announced a new album, The Book of Daniel, but it has not been released.
