“A Life Without Passion Is Slow Way To Freeze To Death”
Not everyone is life is as lucky as Dave, who realize their true passion, pursue it, and reach success in their career. It requires courage to come out of your comfort zone, push the limits, and go out of the way to follow your dreams.
David Ekow Herman, known as David Dave by his friends and showbiz fraternity, was born in November 1991 to Ghanaian parents. Initially, he lived in Hohoe, Ghana, but soon they moved to Germany.
Now we know Dave as an Artist, Dancer, Music Producer, and Songwriter. On the other hand, if the ambition did not ignite at the right time, he may be found with a stethoscope around his neck, treating the ill and elderly.
But fate has it mapped out differently; Dave walked through his milestones in life without realizing what he was destined to do. School, then college, and while pursuing his degree in the medical field, he tumbled upon the recognition, he was not meant for this.
Soon he found himself moving to Berlin, where he knew opportunities to practice and master his ambitions is far greater. He enrolled at the University of Applied Sciences for a degree in Industrial Engineering.
As growing up, in his Christian household, music has been a greater influence, and he sang for the Gospel Choir. Moreover, he was the head of the music band in school; he and his band performed at many school festivities and charity events in Freiburg.
“Allow your passion to become your purpose; it will one day become your profession.”

Soon Dave became the sensation and was featured on shows like Got to Dance, Das Supertalent (Got Talent), Sag Die Wahrheit (Tell the Truth), and Berlin Tag und Nacht, etc. Shortly after, he landed a modeling contract with Cocaine Models and ScriptoManagement. With these endeavors, Dave became increasingly famous among youngsters, and soon he was performing for Netta
Berzilai, winner of EuroVision 2018.
Dave enjoys what he is doing and continually evolving; he drives his motivation from everyday life. From people around him, nature, and music, he learns something new and curates it with his process. This is probably one of the reasons why his works are always fresh, diverse, and exciting. When working through his process, he goes back to old school methods, writing down on pen and paper, and then slowly it evolves into the process of creation.
