Currently on a two-month tour alongside Stange Music capo Tech N9ne, buzzing rapper Dax is showing no signs of slowing down his already impressive 2019 run. As promised (and heavily promoted) to his Instagram “family,” he drops off his latest single and video, “I Did It First.”
“This video speaks volumes … it connects on all levels,” Dax tells HipHopDX. “I hope it resonates with people to try to find the light in every dark place. The song in itself is about overcoming challenges and becoming victorious.”

Next up for Dax is his Fuck Love project, but before that he’s pledged to release six “Infinity Stone” raps that will “lyrically disrupt the fucking world.
