description: "Daniel Dwayne \"Diggy\" Simmons III is an American rapper, singer and actor from Queens, New York City. The fourth child of Run-DMC's Joseph \"Rev. Run\" Simmons, he began his recording career in 2009 and signed with Atlantic Records the following year. In 2011, his single \"Do It Like You\" and guest appearance on Mindless Behavior's single \"Mrs. Right\" marked his first and only entries on the Billboard Hot 100. The former preceded the release of debut studio album, Unexpected Arrival (2012), which peaked at number 11 on the Billboard 200 and was met with positive critical reception. He was chosen as part of XXL magazine's 2011 Annual Freshman List, and joined Lupe Fiasco's short-lived rap collective, All City Chess Club as its youngest member that same year."
