This album was recorded December 12, 2008 at the Magic Bag in Ferndale, MI. I always wanted to record a live album because I feel the live show is one of my greatest strengths. I live for that connection with the crowd and I truly hope that translates with this recording. Much love goes out to those that attended and you know I love you. Thank you, and you mean the world to me. I could go on and on, but enough with all the talking...LET'S START THE SHOW. Press on D. Allie's Solo Debut, "The Cooperative": "CDBaby Editor's Pick" - CDBaby.com "a pleasing combination of vocals and instrumentation. And by the time his 56 minutes are up, D. Allie has certainly left an impression" (77/100) - Andrew Martin, Okayplayer.com (Apr 14, 2008) "this record feels complete with little to no sag time…Embrace this rapper with open arms and ears." - Travis Wright, Real Detroit Weekly "The Cooperative" shows a different life, a distinct meaning, and an emcee like no other." - Susan 'susiQ' Kim for rapreviews.com, Rap Reviews.com "Picked as Urb Magazine's Next 1000" - Urb Magazine (Dec 08, 2008)
