David Dilin is a musical artist, poet, and lyricist whose work bridges hip-hop, spoken word, and conceptual songwriting. A competitive spoken-word poet who competed at the College Unions Poetry Slam Invitational (CUPSI) from 2014–2016, Dilin brings a poet’s attention to language, rhythm, and perspective into his music. His 2018 album, Albert Chain, further established his voice as a recording artist. His work explores identity, relationships, human connection, and seemingly opposing ideas. Through sharp wordplay, narrative, and unexpected connections, Dilin creates performances that invite audiences not only to listen, but to reconsider how they see themselves, each other, and the world around them.
