Watch Dax’s Video For Retrospective Track , ‘PTSD’

Canadian rapper and TikTok star DAX has unleashed his new video for his song ‘PTSD,’ a song and video the 28-year-old called “20+ years in the making.”

The visual has already struck a chord with audiences, hitting over 480K views on YouTube in three days since going live.

The song sees the St. John’s native, who grew up in Ottawa, recounting a traumatizing moment in his life while also showing compassion for others who may have faced similar situations. Dax is introspective on the track, opting to sing his verses instead of bluntly rapping like he’s done on his past songs and albums.

‘PTSD’ follows Dax’s trend of touching on difficult subject matters, attempting to make it easier for his listeners to find solace in the fact that so many other people face the same problems they are going through.

“This one is inspired by real life events,” Dax says. “I’m praying it reaches those who need it.”

Over the pandemic, Dax’s popularity skyrocketed with his Youtube channel quickly approaching 5 million subscribers and his Instagram followers hitting 1.4 million followers. He also passed the 6 million follower mark on Tik Tok.

Dax’s video for his track ‘Depression’ totalled 6.4 million views in just over two months. His other tracks like the ‘Dear Alcohol’ remix and ‘Searching For A Reason’ have both accumulated over 4 million views.

Now it’s time to check out the gripping video for ‘PTSD’ below…

Marie Dahlstrom Releases Video For BBC Radio 1Xtra-Playlisted ‘Clouds’ ft. Delleile Ankrah

Danish, London based singer and producer MARIE DAHLSTROM has released the video for new single ‘Clouds’, directed by Lennon Gregory (Poppy Ajudha, Sasha Keable). The new single features vocals from MiC LOWRY’s Delleile Ankrah, was produced by Dan Diggas (Mahalia, Central Cee, M Huncho).

Widely known for her irresistible R&B-flecked neo soul, new single ‘Clouds’ bursts with positive affirmations: “I keep telling myself / every day I wake up in the morning – I got it”, as Marie and Delleile share verses across the track before uniting on its soaring chorus. Showcasing their respective transfixing vocal prowess, the pair muse on losing yourself – but taking the necessary steps to change things and move forward.

‘Clouds’ is the first taste of Marie’s second full length album expected for release later this year – the follow up to her widely acclaimed debut Like Sand. Check out the video for the smooth single below…

Today, MASEGO shared the official video for his new single, ‘You Never Visit Me.’ The GRAMMY®-nominated artist shot the video in Brazil with director Malison Soares. While Masego savors all that the lush, tropical environment has to offer – the stunning coastline, the cobblestone alleys, gathering with friends to eat, ride motorcycles and party – he still yearns for a lover that may never return.

‘You Never Visit Me’ has amassed over three million combined global streams since its release last month. The jazz/hip-hop/R’n’B multi-instrumentalist prodigy recorded ‘You Never Visit Me’ with GRAMMY®-winning producer Wu10 (J. Cole, Ari Lennox) and Todd Pritchard (Trippie Redd, Tinashe) at Wu10’s Huntsville, AL studio, and with co-producer Louie Lastic (Kehlani, Ambré) in Los Angeles.

Masego, who has amassed nearly two billion combined global streams in his career to date, will kick off the You Never Visit Me Tour in March with a series of West Coast shows. The North American headline run will include two nights at New York City’s Terminal 5 (April 1 & 2) and a pair of shows at The Wiltern in Los Angeles (April 27 & 28).

Following the 2018 release of his debut album, ‘Lady Lady’ – which contained the breakout hit ‘Tadow,’ has been certified Platinum in the U.S., Diamond in Brazil and Gold in Mexico – Masego embarked on a multi-year headline tour that found him selling out shows and playing festivals on every continent but Antarctica. Studying Abroad: Extended Stay, the deluxe edition of his acclaimed EP, earned a GRAMMY® nomination for Best Progressive R&B Album. The collection included the RIAA Gold-certified hit ‘Mystery Lady Ft.’ Don Toliver.

Watch Mr.J (D-RIOT) Video For ‘Count Me Out’

‘Count Me Out’ is the latest release by Detroit hip hop artist MR.J (D-RIOT). The song is about self-reflection and overcoming self-doubt while giving a positive message to the youth.

“In a culture that’s dominated by violence, heavy drug use, and sex, I know that I am fighting a up hill battle,” Mr.J adds. “But it’s a battle that I know I can’t afford to lose, at least not with myself. Life in itself is a constant battle, but what side of the battle are you on? The winning side, or the losing side? Winner’s win and loser’s lose, I choose to win in life. If it’s one message that I hope people get from this song it’s to NEVER count yourself out.”

A great message to end 2022 with…why not check out the video for the track below…
