About Dondria

Dondria’s career started in 2007. With a $15 webcam, a voice touched by God. A candid rendition of Ciara’s “Promise,” Dondria, aka Lil Phatfffat (her name on YouTube), captured the audience of millions, including the ear of super producer Jermaine Dupri. His DM changed the young Dallas native’s life forever! At just 20 years old, Dondria signed a one-of-a-kind deal with So So Def Records and, under Dupri’s mentorship and management, released her debut album, Dondria vs. Phatfffat, in August 2010. The album contained 11 timeless tracks, with songs written and produced by Dupri and veteran songwriter/producer Bryan Michael Cox including her first Billboard charting single, “You’re The One.” Dondria was the opening act on the “Passion, Pain, and Pleasure Tour” headlined by Trey Songz and Monica.

She appeared and performed in several productions, including National Geographic’s GENIUS: Aretha Franklin biopic (2021), BET +’s “First Wives Club” (season 3), headlined the 2021 Taste Of Soul Festival, and toured with her friend, Jade Novah, on her “Moon In Pisces Tour.” In 2022, she also performed in a tribute to Keri Hilson for Black Music Honors and received the Boss Babe’s Trailblazer Award.
