DxnteMadeIt: The 18-Year-Old Powerhouse Delivering Hits By The Day

In an era where producers have become the architects of modern music, few stories shine brighter than that of Donte J. Ononiewu, known to the world as DxnteMadeIt. At just 18 years old, he’s already accomplished what most spend a lifetime chasing — crafting a platinum record before even graduating high school and helping shape one of the most influential sounds to come out of Florida in recent years.

At 16, while most teenagers were focused on classes and social life, Dxnte was in his room creating beats that would soon take over the airwaves. One of those beats became a defining anthem, setting the tone for Florida’s new wave and influencing the entire industry’s sonic direction. By 17, that same record went platinum in less than a year, a milestone that instantly put him on the map as one of the youngest and most forward-thinking producers in the game.

But Dxnte’s ambitions go far beyond producing hits. He’s the founder and CEO of Madeit Music Group, a collective built to empower producers, artists, and songwriters through ownership, collaboration, and creative freedom. It’s not just a label or publishing entity — it’s a movement designed to redefine how young creatives build careers in music.

His breakout success came through his work with BossManDlow on the viral hit “Get In With Me,” a record that became an instant street anthem and helped usher in the next generation of Florida talent. The song’s gritty yet infectious production caught the ear of listeners everywhere and established Dxnte as a go-to name for authentic southern energy. From there, his credits quickly expanded to include Loe Shimmy, Real Boston Richey, EST Gee, Skrilla, Luh Tyler, and many others — proof that his versatility and ear for sound transcend any single artist or region.

Dxnte’s rapid rise also led to a major publishing deal with Sony, a milestone achievement for any young producer — and one he managed to fully recoup, a rare accomplishment that speaks volumes about both his consistency and business acumen. Outside of the studio, he’s been building his brand through content, growing a YouTube channel with over 20,000 subscribers and millions of views, where he shares insights, beat breakdowns, and a glimpse into his creative process. He’s also branching into real estate and other business ventures, showing that his vision extends far beyond music and into long-term generational wealth.

What makes Dxnte special is not just his sound, but his mindset. He’s leading the charge for a new kind of producer — one who understands the art, the business, and the brand. Every beat, every move, and every venture he takes on reinforces the idea that young creators can be both visionary and self-sufficient.

At just 18 years old, DxnteMadeIt is doing far more than making music — he’s creating culture. From platinum plaques to business expansion, from shaping Florida’s sound to inspiring the next wave of producers, he’s proving that talent, discipline, and foresight can’t be taught — they’re born. The name says it all: DxnteMadeIt really did make it.
