We recently featured Dax when he took us on a profound self-love journey with his hit single, Dear Alcohol, so we were thrilled to have the chance to experience his brand new release, Searching For A Reason.
Establishing the mood with an immersive, melodic soundscape, Dax delivers the empowering spoken words, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, you are a light…”
Searching For A Reason expands with a luscious, atmospheric and soulful hip-hop energy as Dax raps with wisdom, “Trust gets you killed, love gets you hurts, being real gets you hated, so tell me what it’s worth, I done seen these people change and try twist up all my words, I’ve been stuck inside a maze, they say that means that I’m on Earth…”
Speaking on his connection with Searching For A Reason, Dax confesses, “This is a song that resonates very deeply with me and it is possibly one of my favorites [that] I’ve ever written.”
Dax elaborates, “It speaks on life’s walk during these crazy times and challenges we face in a society obsessed with instant gratification. Also paired with a visual that was inspired by one of my favorite films of all time called Alice In Wonderland.”
The music video for Searching For A Reason sees our protagonist that on the role of Alice, as he falls down a rabbit hole and engages with various characters from the iconic fairy tale! It is so refreshing to see Dax in this visual, and we are forever in awe of the production value of his music videos! The music video was shot by Eden Gamliel at Happy I’m Sad Productions.
Dax cites Tupac, Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan as some of his influences, which we appreciate, but it is also clear that he is creating a conscious universe of his own.
We have added Searching For A Reason to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we stream Dax’s wider discography including Dear Alcohol, She Cheated Again and My Last Words.
