    1. been following wax for 4 years now, tried to get him on a track, it never happened, and now he’s signed to def jam… good to hear tho wax… big time congrats.

    2. dude is weak, just a pretty little conformist face that def jam can use to do more weird comical shit. cat aint got shit.

      1. lol you obviously don’t know what your talking about, or who this cat is….one of the best lyricist out right now.

      1. ignorant people like you don’t even deserve to listen to him look for his freestyle’s on youtube and then talk shit about his flow, yeah his songs may suck but lets see lil wayne or even Jay-z battle against him…

    3. Seen him on youtube once and he killed it.

      Def Jam is a great look.

      Happy for EOM too. He’s dope on them beats.

      1. exactly. There’s a good album in him, but major labels arent usually good at bringing that out in someone like this. Im expecting some mediocre “Murs for president” type album.

    4. wax is unreal y’all cant even process him. hes fucking amazing. you dont like wax your too stupid to understand him.

      1. Dog you gotta hear is freestyle, that’s his real talent i’d like to see any modern day rapper battle this cat

      2. wow calling him a faggot? just look him up and and you will eat your words. he is the future! since i first met wax i new that he was gonna blow up in everyones face and that was only like 2 years ago. him and his twin (herbal-t) are just “the more talented then you dudes you mad at.”

    6. Def Jam could make a lot of money pushin’ this the right way. It’s a bit amateur but it ain’t bad.

    7. Everyone hating quit doing it based off Dispensary Girl. Go watch some of his freestyles, personal favorite is Wax Goes Bananas at The Crib. He can spit. Also the video being amateur is just him showing the fact that he doesn’t need to act serious all the time, he likes to put some comedy mixed in every once in awhile

    8. that video song is a terrible song to base this kid on. that song really is trash, and i thought he sucked, then i looked up the kids freestyles and was amazed.

    9. Wow. This just made my day. I’ve been subscribed to Wax for a few years, and he’s FINALLY signed. He’s got mad talent.

    10. THERE ARENT WORDS THAT CAN EXPRESS HOW MUCH BETTER AT LIFE WAX IS THAN ALL YOU HATERS HAHA! I AM SOOOO HAPPY HE FINALLY GOT HIS DEAL WITH A DOPE LABEL AT THAT! HE HAS MORE TALENT THAN ANYONE IN THE GAME AND I SAY THAT WITH CONFIDENCE. JUST YOUTUBE “AN EVENING AT HOME” BY WAX OR “WAX SPITS FURY YET AGAIN” TO SEE HIS TRUE SKILLS HE WILL GROW ON EVERYONE TRUST ME!!
