“Dax creates from a heartfelt and vulnerable place each and every time.” – AllHipHop

“That’s Dax’s sweet spot: writing a song on the pulse of a feeling and pushing harder on that pain point.” – CBC

(August 18, 2023) – Off the heels of his latest single “God’s Eyes,” which reached #1 on the iTunes Christian chart in the US, Platinum-certified Nigerian-Canadian rapper, singer, and songwriter Dax has released his new EP What is life? via RECORDS / Columbia Records. Listen HERE. Accompanying the project is an official video for opening track “The Abyss” – watch the Logan Meis-directed visual HERE.

What is life? bends genres and pushes boundaries as Dax continues to make a name for himself in the music industry by creating topic-driven music that sparks conversation. The 7-track project features four new songs as well as previously released singles “God’s Eyes,” “To Be A Man,” and “Dear Alcohol,” which is officially certified Platinum by the RIAA marking Dax’s first track to sell more than one million copies in the US. See full tracklisting below.

In speaking about the EP, Dax says: “What is life? It’s a question. I’ve been asking myself for two years now, these songs answer that.”

Following Canadian tour dates in September, Dax will bring his energetic live show to the US with opener Phix, who was featured on the “To Be A Man” Mega Remix. The 14-date run kicks off in Iowa on October 6 and includes stops in Minneapolis, Chicago, Louisville, and more before concluding in Denver on October 26.

Breaking through on his own terms with over 1 billion streams and 1 billion YouTube views to date, 2022 proved to be a pivotal year for Dax with the releases of “Depression” and “Dear Alcohol,” which has amassed over 275M worldwide streams to date. Dax has continued that momentum in 2023 with a JUNO Award nomination for ‘Breakout Artist of the Year,’ a recent television performance on CBC’s Canada Day national broadcast, the release of What is Life, and his upcoming North American tour.
