Beginning of career

Many MC's have made there first appearance on some sort of a record but for Don Trialeon it was on the open mic session, cypher and freestyle competitions in the mid 90s. That's where he got the the crowd recognition and where he was testing his skills since he had a hard time finding beats and studio time.

He never liked exposure so for the longest time he would refuse to do interviews and take pictures. His reason was since he didn't want people to recognize him on the everyday places and if they did, he wanted them to look at him differently.

Discography

Radio

Don Trialeon hosted a weekly two-hour show, Škola, on Radio S.K.C. 107.9 every Wednesday from 2002 till 2006.

Škola show was a place for people to get educated about hip hop. It never played any songs twice in the four years period unless it was summertime (60 days). No demo artist was allowed on his show, releasing an album in Serbia and Montenegro was the only way to get to be a guest on his show.

The show had a few guest artists such as Rza, Guru, Jungle Brothers, Sole (hip hop artist), L Rock...and over 30 artists from Serbia and Montenegro.

Škola also prepared a mix tape with freestyles from all its guests that was recorded off air. The mix tape was never released but Don Trialeon said he would release it in 2026 (20 years after Radio S.K.C. shut down and the show no longer aired).
